The data obtained from field and geothermometric studies and also the REE composition of fluorites associated with lead mineralization at the Kamar-Mehdi mine are compatible with a structurally controlled, fissure filling, epigenetic, hydrothermal origin. Homogenization and last ice melting temperatures for primary fluid inclusions trapped in fluorite crystals indicate that the mineralizati...

BACKGROUND International guidelines recommend restriction of activities for many children and adolescents with inherited arrhythmia syndromes to moderate activity (<7 metabolic equivalents [METs]). We hypothesized that moderate levels of intensity would be exceeded during free-living daily activity in these individuals when assessed objectively by combined heart rate and accelerometry monitor (...

The aim of the present work was to investigate the chemical composition, mineral extractability, and antioxidant capacity of six date palm varieties grown in Sudan. The results showed that Sudanese date varieties contained significantly different (P < 0.05) amounts of moisture, ash, fiber, oil, and carbohydrates, but have almost similar amounts of protein. Moreover, results revealed that date v...

INTRODUCTION The ideal analgesic agent for burns wound dressings in paediatric patients would be one that is easy to administer, well tolerated, and produces rapid onset of analgesia with a short duration of action and minimal side-effects to allow rapid resumption of activities and oral intake. We compared our current treatment of oral morphine to intranasal fentanyl in an attempt to find an a...

Introduction: This study covered the assessment of the natural radioactivity levels and heavy metalsconcentration in dust samples collected from selected schools in the holy Governorate of Karbala. The purpose of thisstudy was to assess the radiological health and safety impact of dust pollution on the children going to school. Material and Methods:</...

This paper presents findings of a study, which was carried out in Dar es Salaam city to assess postprivatisation of solid waste collection and disposal. Prior to the assessment, fieldwork studies indicated that current solid waste generation rate in the city is 0.4 kg/cap/day and total waste generation is within the range of 2425 tons/day. This study also indicated that out of the total waste g...

This paper presents of an algorithm for physical activity classification and MET mapping regression model construction for a wide range of daily activities using a wearable system. The sensor system consists of several sensor modules that can be synchronized to record the accelerations of diverse motions/activities. During the measurement the accelerations of daily activities, three sensor modu...
