background: we aimed to develop and evaluate outcomes of a blended learning (bl) program for nursing and midwifery education in iran. materials and methods: this was a participatory action research project. after designing bl website, providing technological infrastructures, and holding preparatory workshops, 22 blended courses were designed. bl method was implemented for one semester. students...

in this paper, we introduce the notion of multiplier in -algebra and study relationships between multipliers and some special mappings, likeness closure operators, homomorphisms and ( -derivations in -algebras. we introduce the concept of idempotent multipliers in bl-algebra and weak congruence and obtain an interconnection between idempotent multipliers and weak congruences. also, we introduce...

Z. Naturforsch. 60b, 351 – 355 (2005); received July 16, 2004 The fruits of Cipadessa fruticosa Bl. afforded two new limonoids: methyl 8α,30α-epoxide-3β (2’-methylbutyryloxy)-1-oxomeliacate (cipadesin A) and methyl 21,23-dihydro-23-hydroxy-21-oxo3β -tigloyloxy-1-oxomeliac-8(30)-enate (febrifugin A), along with the known limonoids cipadesin, khayasin T, febrifugin, ruageanin A and mexicanolide. ...

Purpose. The aim of the study was to compare the risk of thyroid malignancy and efficacy of repeat FNA in patients with thyroid nodules diagnosed cytologically as benign lesion (BL) with features of chronic thyroiditis (BL-CT) and BL without CT features (BL-nCT). Methods. The analysis included 917 patients with BL-CT and 7046 with BL-nCT in the first FNA. Repeat biopsy was carried out in 787 pa...

There are some evidences on involvement of ABL2 in a number of cancers, especially ABL2 overexpression was observed in Raji, a Burkitt's lymphoma (BL) cell line. Therefore ABL2 overexpression may be involved in pathogenesis of Burkitt's lymphoma. The aim of this study was to evaluate ABL2 significance in BL. For this purpose 20 formaldehyde fixed paraffin embedded blocks – 16BL and 4 normal lym...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the feeding of Qizil fattening lambs with different levels of broiler litter (BL) on their weight gain, dry matter intake (DMI), nutrient digestibility, selected blood metabolites and husbandry economics. During an eight-weeks experimental period, 28 male lambs (an average of 42.21 ± 5.63 kg and ages of 7-8 months) were allocated randomly to one of four die...

It remains an open question whether placebo/sham acupuncture, in which the needle tip presses the skin, can be used as a placebo device for research on pain. We compare the analgesic effect of the skin-touch placebo needle with that of the no-touch placebo needle, in which the needle tip does not touch the skin, in a double-blind crossover manner including no-treatment control in 23 healthy vol...

In this note, we introduce the concept of a fuzzy filter of a BLalgebra,with respect to a t-norm briefly, T-fuzzy filters, and give some relatedresults. In particular, we prove Representation Theorem in BL-algebras. Thenwe generalize the notion of a fuzzy congruence (in a BL-algebra) was definedby Lianzhen et al. to a new fuzzy congruence, specially with respect to a tnorm.We prove that there i...

In this paper, first we study the semi maximal filters in linear $BL$-algebras and we prove that any semi maximal filter is a primary filter. Then, we investigate the radical of semi maximal filters in $BL$-algebras. Moreover, we determine the relationship between this filters and other types of filters in $BL$-algebras and G"{o} del algebra. Specially, we prove that in a G"{o}del algebra, any ...
