The characteristic extraction of ultrasonic Lamb wave is the prerequisite for its efficient utilization in structural health monitoring. In situation intentional signal compression or unexpected data missing, accurate recovery contained information challenging. To address this problem, work proposes time-frequency representation (TFR) reconstruction scheme undersampled signal. Unlike convention...

Patients with complex periprosthetic fracture patterns of the femur may ultimately require amputation. Some authors have described the use of mega-endoprostheses as a salvage procedure. This study reports functional outcome, complications, and implant and patient survival after total femoral replacement (TFR) for salvage of periprosthetic fracture of the femur. A prospective database of 20 cons...

Background: infant mortality rate is one of the main health indicators for assessing the health system’s performance over the world. We aim to examine the socioeconomic and health system factors affect infant mortality in OPEC from 2004 to 2013. Methods: was used to examine the effects of some of the key explanatory factors (total fertility rate per women, GDP per capita (current US$), public h...

The purpose of this study was to determine the determinants factors causing high Fertility Rate (TFR), rs that affect number children born alive. data used is SKAP in 2019, with a respondent women childbearing age aged 15-49 years. With model binary logistic regression analysis. results showed 12 variables had significant relationship live births. Child mortality most dominant variable has effe...

methodsusing time series data of national level (1967 to 2012 years), we explored the association between total fertility rate, gdp per capita, number of physician per 1000 populations, female labor force participation rate, percentage of people living in rural regions and mean years schooling for each people with infant mortality rate of iran. these data were obtained from central bank of isla...

in order to determine the exact birth rate and also percent of birth - orders in all births in the province of west azerbaijan, all centres of birth registration in the province were asked to fill a questionnaire at the time of issuing identity document for children. in the questionnaire, parents were asked to mention the place of birth, sex and birth order of the children and also the occupati...

Treatment with iron chelators mimics hypoxic induction of the hypoxia inducible factor (HIF-1) which activates transcription by binding to hypoxia responsive elements (HRE). We investigated whether HIF-1 is involved in transcriptional activation of the transferrin receptor (TfR), a membrane protein which mediates cellular iron uptake, in response to iron deprivation. The transcription rate of t...

The intracellular iron level exerts a negative feedback on transferrin receptor (TfR) expression in cells requiring iron for their proliferation, in contrast to the positive feedback observed in monocytes-macrophages. It has been suggested recently that modulation of TfR and ferritin synthesis by iron is mediated through a cytoplasmic protein(s) (iron regulatory element-binding protein(s) (IRE-...

Transferrin receptor (TfR) expression is regulated by iron at the level of mRNA stability through a factor (IRF/IRE-BP) which binds to specific iron-responsive elements (IRE). On the other hand, growth-dependent regulation of TfR expression is generally believed to be transcriptionally controlled. We analyzed the molecular mechanisms that control TfR gene expression at the onset of cell prolife...

The recycling of cellular glycoproteins to the site of Golgi mannosidase I, an enzyme of asparagine-linked oligosaccharide synthesis, was studied in K562 human erythroleukemia cells. Cells were metabolically labeled in the presence of deoxymannojirimycin, a reversible inhibitor of Golgi mannosidase I. This generates glycoproteins with immature oligosaccharides in their normal locations. Transpo...
