Background: Mammalian spermatozoa are characterized by a high proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and the membrane structure of spermatozoa plays a crucial role in fertilization. Moreover, dietary fatty acid (FA) influence sperm FA profiles in several species. This study focused on responses to dietary omega-3 fatty acids and comprehensive fatty acid profiles analysis in men as wel...

The literature on the participation paradox, stealth democracy, political transformation and populism implicitly refers to existence of different profiles, but its empirical evidence focuses separate actions. While several studies have examined distinct combinations actions, such profiles rarely been placed within a theoretical framework or connected motivations resources that shape participati...

Considering the circulation of Bordetella pertussis clinical strains among populations with high vaccination coverage, it is necessary to have a proper understanding of this bacterium causing whooping cough. Various techniques, which are available for studying B. pertussis, can facilitate a proper comparison between different populations. We genotypically analyzed a collection of two vaccine st...

A computational optimization was performed for a direct-injection diesel engine using three-dimensional modeling. Fully transient CFD analyses of different valve profile strategies for the intake and compression strokes were performed to evaluate the effects on both engine performance and in-cylinder flow-field evolution. The turbulence model was used along with the second order linear upwin...

Abstract Profile monitoring in statistical quality control has attracted attention of many researchers recently. A profile is a function between response variables and one or more independent variables. There have been only a limited number of researches on monitoring multivariate profiles. Indeed, monitoring correlated multivariate profiles is a new subject in the fileld of statistical proces...

extractosteoporosis is one of the most serious  debilitating health problems that older people deal with it. but can be prevent or minimize more than any other health problem . two new patients were admitted to the orthopedic ward of a crowded hospital in the city. one of them is a 60 year old woman who had vertebral compression fractures during coughing and eventually left the hospital with ch...

covering arrays of strength two have been widely studied as combinatorial models of software interaction test suites for pairwise testing. while numerous algorithmic techniques have been developed for the generation of covering arrays with few columns (factors), the construction of covering arrays with many factors and few tests by these techniques is problematic. random generation techniques c...
