this is a case report concerning a 60 years old man who lived for a short period in an endemic area of khuzestan province (neighboring province of persian gulf in iran) for approximately 20 years ago. recently he referred to the urology department of kerman university of medical sciences with hematuria and dysuria. in the sonography a polypoid mass on the bladder floor was observed. in the cyst...

Stroke is a common and serious condition, with few therapies. Whilst previous focus has been directed towards biochemical events within neurons, none have successfully prevented the progression of injury that occurs in the acute phase. New targeted treatments that promote recovery after stroke might be a better strategy and are desperately needed for the majority of stroke survivors. Cells comp...

Neurons in the region of cat's solitary tract nucleus were classified into three groups on the basis of their spontaneous discharge rate during slow wave sleep (SS) as compared with wakefulness (W): group I: SS greater than W; group II: SS less than W; and group III: SS divided by W. These three groups were further examined with regard to the modulation of discharge rate i) during motor activit...

The Rayleigh-Taylor instability problem is one of the classic hydrodynamic instability cases in natural scenarios and industrial applications. For the numerical simulation of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability problem, this paper presents a multiphase method based on the moving particle semi-implicit (MPS) method. Herein, the incompressibility of the fluids is satisfied by solving a Poisson Pressu...

This paper proposes a framework for the application of anthropomorphic interfaces in gamification for transitional healthcare. The framework bridges the theories around anthropomorphic research, gamification research, transitional health research, with the views of 15 field experts and a survey of 33 users. Patients in transitional healthcare process requires additional tools to assist them in ...

PURPOSE The aim of this study is to describe seizure as a presenting symptom in individuals with recently diagnosed neurocysticercosis (NCC). METHODS Using logistic regression, we examined the probability of having seizures as a presenting symptom among those with active or transitional NCC by host age and gender, and by number of cysts, location of the cysts in the brain, and phase of evolut...

Fluid shear stress is an important regulator of vascular and endothelial cell (EC) functions. Its effect is dependent not only on magnitude but also on flow type. Although laminar flow predominates in the vasculature, transitional flow can occur and is thought to play a role in vascular diseases. While a great deal is known about the mechanisms and signaling cascades through which laminar shear...
