Children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) have deficits in working memory, but little is known about the everyday memory of these children in real-life situations. We investigated the everyday memory function in children with DCD, and explored the specific profile of everyday memory across different domains. Nineteen children with DCD and 19 typically developing (TD) children part...

Background: Preterm born children are at an increased risk for having cognitive and motor impairments at preschool age. In addition to this, children born preterm have a number of deficits in executive functioning. Although there are numerous studies examining executive functions (EF) in preterm born children, few used ecologically valid measures of EF. The goal of the present study was to exam...

introduction zinc is a vital micronutrient in humans and its deficiency in children can thwart their growth and development, compromise their immunity and cognitive function. however, there is a paucity of studies about the effect of zinc supplementation on cognitive functions. this study is an attempt to quantify the impact of zinc supplementation on cognitive performance of schoolchildren. ma...

BACKGROUND Much evidence has accumulated to indicate memory deficits in children with specific language impairment. However, most research has focused on working memory impairments in these children. Less is known about the functioning of other memory systems in this population. AIMS This study examined procedural and declarative memory in young children with and without specific language imp...

  Abstract   Background: Voiding Cystourethrography (VCUG) is a distressing procedure   for children. Conscious sedation with any drug that its dose would not influences the   procedure is preferred. The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of conscious sedation using oral midazolam in children undergoing VCUG.   Methods: From November 2008 to October 2009 period, 93 Patients (68 g...

In this paper a multivariate version of Hoeffding’s inequality is proved about the tail distribution of homogeneous polynomials of Rademacher functions with an optimal constant in the exponent of the upper bound. The proof is based on an estimate about the moments of homogeneous polynomials of Rademacher functions which can be considered as an improvement of Borell’s inequality in a most import...

In this paper, we will prove several new inequalities of Hardy type with explicit constants. The main results will be proved using generalizations of Opial's inequality.

In this paper we study the bounded perturbation resilience of the extragradient and the subgradient extragradient methods for solving a variational inequality (VI) problem in real Hilbert spaces. This is an important property of algorithms which guarantees the convergence of the scheme under summable errors, meaning that an inexact version of the methods can also be considered. Moreover, once a...

Quantum-dot cellular automata, is an extremely small size and a powerless nanotechnology. It is the possible alternative to current CMOS technology. Reversible QCA logic is the most important issue at present time to reduce power losses. This paper presents a novel reversible logic gate called the F-Gate. It is simplest in design and a powerful technique to implement reversible logic. A systema...
