OBJECTIVE There are few health-related quality of life (HRQOL) instruments available that have been validated for use with Turkish children. The Kid-KINDL is a generic measure of children's (8-12 years) HRQOL, which contains 24 categorical items that assess 6 dimensions (physical well-being, emotional well-being, self-esteem, family, friends, and school). The Kid-KINDL is available in many lang...

We have performed a 4-μs molecular dynamics simulation to investigate the native conformational preferences of the intrinsically disordered kinase-inducible domain (KID) of the transcription factor CREB in solution. There is solid experimental evidence showing that KID does not possess a bound-like structure in solution; however, it has been proposed that coil-to-helix transitions upon binding ...

The potential of ovulation rate before 18 to 21 mo of age in puberal heifers as an indirect selection criterion for twinning rate was considered. Heritability (h2) was .07 +/- .03 for single observations and .34 +/- .18 for the mean of 7.9 estrous cycles per heifer. Estimated repeatability (r) of ovulation rate was less than or equal to h2, indicating negligible permanent environmental effects....

The data set used in this study contained 8793 records of lamb's longevity (days) from 320 sires and 2349 dams collected during 1989 to 2014, from the Lori-Bakhtiari flock at Shooli station in Shahrekord, Iran. Genetic parameters (partitioned into autosomal, sex-linked and maternal) and breeding values of cumulative lamb's longevity from birth up to yearling age (at 1, 2, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months)...

In the study, fertility parameters of Hair goats and growth performance kids raised under farmer conditions were investigated. The data birth weight 28,768 kids, body 27,541 aged d 90, reproductive 26,693 does used between 2013 2017 years. weights goat born in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, years 2.36, 2.46, 2.56, 2.61, 2.61 kg, whereas detected on 90 15.2, 12.7, 12.8, 13.1, 14.5 respectively. Year, s...

A spring calving herd consisting of about 350 beef cows, 14-16 breeding bulls, 60 replacement heifers and 112 steers were used to compare the whole-farm GHG emissions among calf-fed vs. yearling-fed production systems with and without growth implants. Carbon footprint ranged from 11.63 to 13.22 kg CO₂e per kg live weight (19.87-22.52 kg CO₂e per kg carcass weight). Enteric CH₄ was the largest s...

background and purpose: leukemia is the most prevalent type of cancer in children and its prognostic factors vary in different geographic locations. the aim of this study was to estimate the 5 years survival rate of children suffering from leukemia in kerman, iran and to investigate the factors which might influence it. materials and methods: this was a cohort study conducted on patients with a...
