background: designing intervention based on health-care settings resources and patient acceptability is potentially important in the prevention of high blood pressure (bp) and other risk factors of cardiovascular disease. to explain a multicenter randomized controlled trial that is designed to examine the effects of the multicomponent lifestyle modification program on bp. materials and methods:...

In this paper X denotes a set, R, R1, R2 denote binary relations, x, y, z denote sets, and n, m, k denote natural numbers. Let us consider a binary relation R on X. Now we state the propositions: (1) fieldR ⊆ X. (2) If x, y ∈ R, then x, y ∈ X. Now we state the propositions: (3) Let us consider sets X, Y . Then (idX)Y = X ∩ Y . (4) 〈x, y〉 ∈ R |2 X if and only if x, y ∈ X and 〈x, y〉 ∈ R. (5) dom(...

We present a detailed non-spherical modeling of dark matter halos on the basis of a careful analysis of state-of-the art N-body simulations. The fitting formula presented here form a complete and accurate description of the triaxial density profiles of halos in Cold Dark Matter(CDM) models. This modeling allows us to quantitatively discuss implications for shape observations of galactic and clu...

The past few years have seen an increased number of articles using Drosophila as a model system to study fragile X syndrome. Phenotypic analyses have demonstrated an array of neuronal and behavioral defects similar to the phenotypes reported in mouse models as well as human patients. The availability of both cellular and molecular tools along with the power of genetics makes the tiny fruit fly ...

Self-assembly of densely packed ZnO nanorods were grown on Porous Silicon (PS) substrate by low-temperature chemical bath deposition. The structural and optical properties of the obtained ZnO nanostructure...

PURPOSE To retrospectively compare three-dimensional ultrasonography (3D-US) and pelvic X-rays to assess the position of tubal sterilization microinserts. MATERIAL AND METHODS Forty-four patients who underwent tubal sterilization with Essure(®) microinserts in our institution were included. The microinserts'position was evaluated three months after the procedure using 3D-US and pelvic X-rays....
