background and aim: electrical discharges in temporal lobe epilepsy can cause disorders in auditory pathways. staggered spondaic word test ( ssw) is one of the most common behavioral tests to evaluate the central auditory nervous system. this study aimed to evaluate and compare auditory processing problems in temporal lobe epileptic patients and normal subjects with persian ssw test. methods: t...

objectives: the aim of this research is designing a computerized program, in game format, for working memory training in mild intellectual disabled children. methods: 24 students participated as test and control groups. the auditory and visual-spatial wm were assessed by primary test, which included computerized wechsler numerical forward and backward sub- tests, and secondary tests, which cont...

introduction: the hallmark of vitiligo is the disappearance of melanocytes from the skin due to an as yet unidentified mechanism. the presence of melanocytes in the auditory apparatus suggests that this system could possibly be affected by vitiligo, which targets the melanocytes of the whole body and not just the skin.the purpose of this study was to assess the incidence of auditory alterations...

Introduction: Hearing loss is one of the most common problems in elderly people. Functional side effects of hearing loss are various. Due to the fact that hearing loss is the common impairment in elderly people; the importance of its possible effects on auditory memory is undeniable. This study aims to focus on the hearing loss effects on auditory memory.   Materials and Methods: Dichotic Audi...

the quality of pressure distribution over the atmosphere of the sea level and geopotential altitude at different atmosphere layers affect on many climate and meteorology phenomena of the earth surface. one of the important meteorology phenomenon is the occurrence of frost phenomenon especially late spring frost. in this surrey, occurring late spring frost days and minimum temperature during the...

In this research, the high-energy planetary mill was employed to produce nanocrystalline Ti-50Al(γ)(at%) powders. Initial powders were mechanically alloyed in 99.9999% and 90% purities of Argon and also Air atmosphere with alloying times up to 50h. The effect of impurity of Argon atmosphere on the microstructure and the rate of phase transformation of Ti-50Al were investigated during mechanical...
