introduction: it has been reported that cardiovascular effects are among the possible health effects of being exposed to extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields (elf emss). material and methods: this study has been conducted to evaluate the long term effects of exposure to magnetic and electric fields on electrocardiogram signal changes. nine power transmission posts having different vol...

background: for a long time, intestinal parasite infections are among the major problems of public health in iran. our aim was epidemiological studies on the frequency of intestinal parasites in patients re­ferred to three hospitals in tehran during 2007-2008. methods : during 2007-2008, by simple random selection, 1000 stool samples were collected from mi­lad, hazrat-e-rasoul and shahid fahmid...

Abstract Transhumant herds graze across two different rangeland types according to the season. Winter rangelands differ from summer in amount and quality of available fodder, with former being less productive. In cold areas, winter has low forage where goats may suffer severe nutritional restrictions during gestation which lead significant reproductive losses form abortions perinatal losses. Ar...

the drawing of frequency-path (f-p) models of optical beams is an approach for nonlinearity analysis in nano-metrology systems and sensors based on the laser interferometers. in this paper, the frequency-path models of four nano-metrology laser interferometry systems are designed, analyzed and simulated, including conventional and modified two- and three-longitudinal-mode laser interferometers....

objective despite numerous reports on the effects of meal frequency on biochemical parameters such as plasma lipid profile, glucose and insulin, there is almost no study to investigate the influence of meal frequency on immune system. in the present article, for the first time, the effect of meal frequency on complement components c3 and c4, as key components of the complement system, has been ...

spectral decomposition is a powerful tool for analysis of seismic data. fourier transform determines the frequency contents of a signal. but for analysis of non-stationary signals, 1-d transform to frequency domain is not sufficient. in early years, transforming of seismic traces into time and frequency domain was done via windowed fourier transform, called a short time fourier transform (stft)...
