This paper is devoted to the study of interactions between stationary electromagnetic sources for minimal and nonminimal CPT-odd photon sector Standard Model Extension (SME), where we search mainly physical phenomena not present in Maxwell electrodynamics. First consider sector, Lorentz violation caused by Carroll-Field-Jackiw (CFJ) term, namely $\sim\epsilon^{\mu\nu\alpha\beta}\left(k_{AF}\rig...

the distribution of gallium(b) and indium (b) between hydrochloric or sulphuric acid solution with sec-nonylphenoxy acetic acid(ca-100) in kerosene has been investigated under various conditions. ca-100 is a new organocarboxylic extractant, which has been shown to be efficient for gallium(b) and indium(b) whereas germanium(c), which was not extracted. the extraction system is studied as a funct...

we aimed to compare the therapeutic effect of avonex (av), betaferon (be) & rebif (re) on the expanded disability status scale (edss) in multiple sclerosis (ms). ninety patients referring to farshchian hospital were entered in this study. the patients were divided into three equal groups: group 1 received av, group 2 received re and group 3 received be, and after 24 months, comparison was done ...

Background: To our knowledge, there is a hypothesis regardingthe association of vitiligo with other autoimmune disorders.Organ-specific autoantibodies are found more frequently in theserum of vitiligo patients. Recent studies have demonstratedthe role of alterations in serum transforming growth factor-beta(TGF-beta) released from regulatory T cells in the pathogenesisof depigmentation observed ...

background: heart disease is the main cause of mortality and morbidity in patients with beta thalassemia, rendering its early diagnosis vital. we studied and compared echocardiographic findings in patients with beta thalassemia major, patients with beta thalassemia intermedia, and a control group. methods: eighty asymptomatic patients with thalassemia major and 22 asymptomatic cases with thalas...

conclusions: high percentage of hemolysins, biofilm and beta lactamase production by isolated staphylococci, suggests an important role of these virulence factors in the pathogenesis of isolated staphylococci from dermatitis lesions. the s. aureus isolates from wound infections, show a high sensitivity pattern to all examined antibiotics. only ciprofloxacin was found to be active against all is...

Background: Curcumin, extracted from turmeric, represents enormous potential to serve as an anticancer agent. Telomerase is viewed as a prominent molecular target of curcumin, and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGFβ1) has proven to be a major inhibitory signaling pathway for telomerase activity. In the current study, we aimed to explore suppressive effects of nanocurcumin on telomeras...
