Received for publication March’ 2009 .............................. Purpose: To assess and compare the complications of primary and secondary implantation of flexible open loop anterior chamber intraocular lenses. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted in the Department of Ophthalmology, Abbasi Shaheed Hospital from January 2007-June 2008. In this study evaluation of 60 patients with fl...

Let L = ∆α/2 + b · ∇ with α ∈ (1, 2). We prove the Martin representation and the Relative Fatou Theorem for non-negative singular L-harmonic functions on C1,1 bounded open sets. 1

introduction: effective perception of fear signals is crucial for organism survival. when threated, the organism indicates defensive behaviors. methods: elevated plus–maze has high efficiency for measurement of fear behavior and is widly used for fear behavior determination. increase in two parameters percent of openarm entries (%oae) and percent of time spent in the open-arm (%oat) in the elev...

To determine the number of L-channel populations responsible for producing the two components of whole-cell L-type Ca2+ channel current revealed by Bay K 8644 (Fass, D.M., and E.S. Levitan. 1996. J. Gen. Physiol. 108:1-11), L-type Ca2+ channel activity was recorded in cell-attached patches. Ensemble tail currents from most (six out of nine) single-channel patches had double-exponential time cou...

Abstract Let $(S,L)$ be a general polarised Enriques surface, with L not numerically 2-divisible. We prove the existence of regular components all Severi varieties irreducible nodal curves in linear system $|L|$ , that is, for any number nodes $\delta =0, \ldots p_a(L)-1$ . This solves classical open problem and gives positive answer to recent conjecture Pandharipande–Schmitt, under additional ...

L-Tartrate ions can endure hydrothermal conditions up to 160 degrees C to form the robust, enantiopure open-framework coordination polymers [Ln2(L-TAR)3(H2O)2]3H2O, 1; the addition of succinate results in formation of the related [Ln2(L-TAR)2(SUC)(H2O)2]5.5H2O, with larger channels than , whereas racemic D/L-tartrate gives the more condensed [Ln2(D/L-TAR)3(H2O)2], . TAR = [C4H4O6]2-.

accurate and nondestructive methods to determine individual leaf areas of plants are useful tools in physiological and agronomic research. a determination of the individual leaf area (la) of such species in brassicaceae family as red cabbage (brassica oleracea var. cappitata l. f. rabra), cabbage (brassica oleracea var. cappitata l. f. alba) and broccoli (brassica oleracea var. italica l.) ...

In the current study, the effects of ethanol (EtOH) on toxicokinetics of methamphetamine (MA) and its metabolite amphetamine (AP) were investigated. A single dose of MA hydrochloride at 15 mg/Kg was given intragastrically, either alone (MA group; n = 8) or in conjunction with 3 g/Kg EtOH (MA+EtOH group; n = 8) to rabbits. In placebo group, normal saline only was given (placebo group; n = 4). Pl...

Introduction: The current study aimed at investigating the role of Nitric Oxide (NO) in the maintenance of anxiety and depression induced by stress in male Wistar rats using intra-Basolateral Amygdala (BLA) injection of NO precursor, L-arginine, Nitric Oxide Synthase (NOS) inhibitor, and L-NAME.  Methods: Two 23-gauge stainless steel cannulas were placed in the BLA, stereotaxically. Seven days...
