This article describes a new apparatus for making simultaneous optical measurements on single muscle fibers at three different wavelengths and two planes of linear polarization. There are two modes of operation: mode 1 measures the individual absorbances of light linearly polarized along and perpendicular to the fiber axis, and mode 2 measures retardation (or birefringence) and the average of t...

An axisymmetric hot closed die-forging process has been studied by physical modeling technique using the plasticine. To observe the material flow pattern, layers of plasticine with different colors were used. The normal direction to the layers was considered a principal direction. The strain distribution was obtained by measuring the thickness of the plasticine layers. Based on the strain distr...

materials and methods in this study, 90 patients with second-degree burn injuries who were admitted to the yazd burn hospital were randomly divided into three equal groups. in the negative control group, the wounds were covered with sterile vaseline gauze followed by double sterile dry gauze and ultimately bandaged. in the test group, the wounds were covered by an iranian hydrogel sheet (irgel)...

Objectives Human Wharton's Jelly mesenchymal stem cells (hWMSCs) are undifferentiated cells commonly used in regenerative medicine. The aim of this study was to develop a reliable tool for tracking hWMSCs when utilized as therapeutics in burnt disorders and also to optimize the cell-based treatment procedure. Materials and Methods The hWMSCs were first isolated from fresh umbilical cord Whart...

Decanoic acid is used as an additive in injections to prolong the action of drugs because its lipid solubility. In addition, decanoic has been speculated have anti-inflammatory effects. this study, we examined effects on a mouse model dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB)-induced irritant contact dermatitis. Mice were divided into four treatment groups. Groups 1, mice challenged with twice application 50...

Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) is the most serious cutaneous adverse drug reaction characterized by extensive detachment of epidermis and erosions oral mucosal. Early diagnosis proper therapy are an essential for reduction morbidity mortality this disease. This article aimed to describe management TEN with involvement accompanied candi-diasis in patient carcinoma cervix stage III. A 53-year-o...

In this article, a staircase-shaped ultra-wide band dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) has been used as sensor for the detection of breast tumor by monostatic radar-based microwave imaging (MRMWI). The proposed DRA fractional bandwidth (BW) 98.5% and high peak gain 5.98 dB along with dual polarization behaviour from 5.12 to 8.2 GHz 11.02-13.8 GHz. MRMWI setup, is placed over phantom at distance...

Psoriasis vulgaris is an autoimmune disease that influenced by multifactor, namely environmental, genetic (HLA-Cw6), and immune system dysregulation (IL-17 or IL-22), resulting in increased proliferation of keratinosit the epidermis. Histologically characterized parakeratosis, hyperkeratosis, elongated rete ridge, Monro micro abscess, Kogoj abscess. The clinical picture red patches with thick s...

The aim of this survey was to assess the knowledge and practice of Swiss dentists regarding wound management and the use of mouth rinse in surgical removal of mandibular third molars (MTM). A postal survey was conducted among all 3,288 dentists who are members of the Swiss Dental Society (SSO) representing the majority of dentists in Switzerland. The questionnaire consisted of 13 questions with...
