background :preterm birth is a significant global health problem with serious short- and long-term consequences. this study examined the long term effects of preterm birth on vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (vemps) among preschool-aged children.   methods : thirty-one children with preterm and 20 children with term birth histories aged 5.5 to 6.5 years were studied. each child underwent v...

background : health professionals face the adverse health effects of climate change and air pollution in their practices. this review underscores the effects of these environmental factors on maternal and children’s health, as the most vulnerable groups to climate change and air pollution. methods : we reviewed electronic databases for a search of the literature to find relevant studies publish...

INTRODUCTION Epidemiological studies suggest three daily servings of whole-grain foods (WGF) might lower cardiovascular disease risk, at least partly by lowering serum lipid levels. We have assessed the effects of consuming three daily portions of wholegrain food (provided as wheat or a mixture of wheat and oats) on lipoprotein subclass size and concentration in a dietary randomised controlled ...

Chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla L.) is a widely used medicinal plant possessing several pharmacological effects due to presence of active compounds. In order to study of seed priming effects on seedling growth of chamomile, an experimental design, based on randomized complete design with three replications was conducted under greenhouse conditions in Research Institute of Forests and Rangeland...

background: formaldehyde (h2c = o), is a member of aldehyde family with a simplest organic molecule, used in various industries. the aim of this experimental study was to investigate the effects of simultaneous formaldehyde and noise exposure on hormonal pituitary-gonadal axis in adult male mice. methods: 46 adult male mice were randomly assigned to one control group and three experimental grou...

Background: This study aimed to investigate the inhibitory effects of simultaneous formaldehyde (FA) and noise exposure on the sperm kinematic parameters sexual hormones in male mice. Materials and Methods: Forty eight NMRI adult male mice were randomly assigned to control group and experimental groups which were exposed to formaldehyde vapour (10 ppm) (F), noise (100 dB) (N), and simultaneous ...

Background: Formaldehyde (FA) is a member of aldehyde family with a simplest organic molecule, used in various industries. Since there is simultaneous exposure of formaldehyde and noise for workers in most of the workplaces and that noise can reinforce the harmful effects of some chemical pollutants. This study aimed to investigate the effects of simultaneous formaldehyde and noise exposure on ...

The benefits of textual input enhancement in the acquisition of linguistic forms have produced mixed results in SLA literature. The present study investigates the effects of textual enhancement on adult foreign language intake of two English linguistic forms-subjunctive mood and inversion structures-to explore the role of the type of linguistic items in input enhancement studies. It also invest...
