background: finding a suitable method for rapid, accurate and reliable estimation of absorbed dose has high priority in management of the radiation exposed persons. shortly after radiation exposure, apoptosis is a major detriment in proliferative tissues such as the hematopoietic system. therefore, quantification of apoptosis in these tissues could be useful for rapid estimation of radiation ex...

background celiac disease (cd) is a disorder associated with body reaction to gluten. after the gluten intake, an immune reaction against the protein occurs and damages villi of small intestine in celiac patients gradually. objectives the osc, a filtering method for minimization of inter- and intra-spectrometer variations that influence on data acquisition, was applied to biofluid nmr data of c...

Four novel azo disperse dyes based on 1-4-bromobenzyl-4-phenylpiperazine were synthesized in two steps, using alkylation and azo coupling reactions. Chemical structure of the dyes was characterized and confirmed by the Ultraviolet Visible UV-Visible, Fourrier Transform Infrared FT-IR, Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance 1H NMR and Carbon Nuclear Magnetic Resonance 13C NMR analyses. The solvatochr...

In recent years, the development of neuroimaging techniques such as high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), positron emission tomography (PET), or single photon emission tomography (SPECT) has promoted the identification of structural and functional characteristics underlying mental disorders to a great extent. In anxiety disorders, recent...

A 20-year-old woman was admitted to a Gynecology Hospital in her 6th month of pregnancy for high blood pressure and tonic-clonic seizure. Primary diagnosis was eclampsia, and for that reason she underwent cesarean section. She also had headache on frontal and parietal areas without nausea or vomiting. There was not a focal neurological sign. Rheumatology consultation was requested. Systemic lup...
