in this study to determine whether spine stiffness is predictive of clinical results after lumbar spinal fusion for spinal stenosis, a total of 78 patients were measured intraoperatively with kocher clamp manual distraction technique to determine motion segment stiffness then spinal fusion was performed for any loose segment. ‎statistical analysis revealed that stiffness measurement correlate w...

On the basis of impossibility results on probability, belief revision, and conditionals, it is argued that conditional beliefs differ from beliefs in conditionals qua mental states. Once this is established, it will be pointed out in which sense conditional beliefs are still conditional, even though they may lack conditional contents, and why it is permissible to still regard them as beliefs, a...

This report focuses on a research project concerning individual curricula regarding the instruction of statistics and of probability theory. Individual curricula will be described as belief systems which contain teachers’ subjective knowledge and conceptions about mathematics, about learning and teaching mathematics, and particularly about statistics and probability. This report stresses two as...

globally, brucella melitensis and b. abortus are the most common cause of human brucellosis. the outer membrane protein 31 (omp31) and l7/l12 are immunodominant and protective antigens conserved in human brucella pathogens which are considered as potential vaccine candidates. we aimed to design the fusion protein from brucella l7/l12 and truncated omp31proteins, in silico , clone the fusion in ...

Background and Aim: Degenerative lumbar scoliosis is a spinal deformity resulting from advanced disc degeneration and facet arthropathy. Given the inconclusive available literature and lack of high-quality data supporting the role of minimally invasive surgical management of degenerative lumbar scoliosis, this review intends to highlight and compare the various viable minimally invasive surgica...
