BACKGROUND AND AIMS Sulfonylurea (SU) herbicides are used extensively in cereal-livestock farming zones as effective and cheap herbicides with useful levels of residual activity. These residues can persist beyond the cropping year, severely affecting legumes in general, and annual medics in particular, resulting in reduced dry matter production, lower seed yields and decreased nitrogen fixation...

the aim of this study was to find any structural differences between the digital pads of forelimbs and hind limbs as well as more careful investigation of the internal and external structures of the toe-pad. in this study, pad morphology and cytology in litoria caerulea is described using sem, tem and light microscopy. at the gross anatomical level, toe-pads in hind limbs were subdivided into m...

We describe a collection of Pad e-type methods for accelerating the convergence of sequence of functions. The construction and connections of Pad e’s methods with other similar methods are given. We examine the e ectiveness of these new methods, namely integral Pad e approximant, modi ed Pad e approximant and squared Pad e approximant together with the well-established methods, namely functiona...

To describe prevalence and impact of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), data were collected over 5 months from 6 Middle Eastern countries. Patients were divided into 2 groups (with and without PAD). Out of 6705 consecutive ACS patients, PAD was reported in 177 patients. In comparison to non-PAD, PAD patients were older and more likely to have cardi...
