background: we conducted a comprehensive bibliometrics analysis to calculate the h, g, m, a and r indicators for all iranian biomedical research centers (ibrcs) from the output of isi web of science (wos) and scopus between 1991 and 2010. we compared the research performance of the research centers according to these indicators.   methods : this was a cross-sectional and descriptive-analytical ...

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is commonly associated with disordered or disturbed sleep. The relationships of ADHD with sleep problems, psychiatric comorbidities and medications are complex and multidirectional. Evidence from published studies comparing sleep in individuals with ADHD with typically developing controls is most concordant for associations of ADHD with: hypopnea/...

OBJECTIVE To compare both global and specific domains of motor development of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) with that of typically developing children. METHODS Two hundred children (50 children with clinical diagnoses of ADHD, according to the DSM-IV-TR and 150 typically developing controls), aged 5 to 10 years, participated in this cross-sectional study. The M...

Background and Purpose—Few clinical tools available for assessment of postural abilities are specifically designed for stroke patients. Most have major floor or ceiling effects, and their metrological properties are not always completely known. Methods—The Postural Assessment Scale for Stroke patients (PASS), adapted from the BL Motor Assessment, was elaborated in concordance with 3 main ideas:...

let $g$ be a graph and let $m_{ij}(g)$, $i,jge 1$, be the number of edges $uv$ of $g$ such that ${d_v(g), d_u(g)} = {i,j}$. the {em $m$-polynomial} of $g$ is introduced with $displaystyle{m(g;x,y) = sum_{ile j} m_{ij}(g)x^iy^j}$. it is shown that degree-based topological indices can be routinely computed from the polynomial, thus reducing the problem of their determination in each particular ca...

topological indices are numerical parameters of a graph which characterize its topology. inthis paper the pi, szeged and zagreb group indices of the tetrameric 1,3–adamantane arecomputed.

in theoretical chemistry, molecular structure descriptors are used to compute properties of chemical compounds. among them wiener, szeged and detour indices play significant roles in anticipating chemical phenomena. in the present paper, we study these topological indices with respect to their difference number.
