Program analysis techniques have been widely applied in various fields of software engineering, such as debugging, testing, and proof of simple correctness properties. In objectoriented (OO) programs, inheritance, association, and aggregation relationships may introduce complicated dependencies concealed within classes that might obstruct program analysis. This paper proposes a class relationsh...

BACKGROUND Lower socioeconomic status is generally associated with an increased risk of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The relationship between community characteristics reflecting socioeconomic status and familial aggregation of common forms of ESRD has not been studied. METHODS Demographic data and family history of ESRD were collected from 23,880 incident dialysis patients in ESRD Network...

This article was conducted to investigatethe HRQoL and associated factors in rural elderly residents in west of Iran.Methods: By using the multistage sampling method, 346 elders from rural areas of Shahindezh wereenr...

this study aimed to develop an index that can rank welding workplace that associate well with possible health risk of welders.welding fumes health index (wfhi) were developed based on data from case studies conducted in plant 1 and plant 2. personal sampling of welding fumes to assess the concentration of metal constituents along with series of lung function tests was conducted. fifteen metal c...

accurate mapping of geological structures play an important role in the land management, some of which are considered as the origination of wind deposits, dust and aerosols. during the last decades, remote sensing has considerably helped the studies of desert areas especially in change detection of land phenomena. this study aims to study the facies morphology of playa in tabas kavir, based on ...

The Stober process is frequently used to prepare silica-coated iron oxide nanoparticles. This is usually achieved by seeding a reaction mixture consisting of water, ethanol and a catalyst with iron oxide particles and adding a silica precursor. The hydrolysis and condensation of precursor monomers results in the deposition of a silica layer on iron oxide particles. However, this process is acco...

Epidemiologic studies show an inverse correlation between garlic consumption and progression of cardiovascular disease. Cardiovascular disease is associated with multiple factors such as raised serum total cholesterol, raised LDL and an increase in LDL oxidation, increased platelet aggregation, hypertension, and smoking. Numerous in vitro studies have confirmed the ability of garlic to reduce t...

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of short-term endurance training on plasma total antioxidant status (TAS) and on in vitro platelet aggregation and ATP release. Blood samples were collected from the abdominal aorta of rats following short-term treadmill exercise (25 m/min, 0 % grade, 30 min) for three consecutive days, as well as in non-exercised control group. Pla...

a number of n-arylmethyl substituted indole derivatives have been synthesized and their effectiveness against adp and arachidonic acid induced platelet aggregation in human plasma was determined. the desired compounds were synthesized by reacting the appropriate aniline derivative with isatin (or substituted isatin) to form the corresponding imine structures. the so formed compound was then act...

Objective: To study plants purification capability of  Cu on two cultivars of vetch plant (Vigna Radiata) in contaminated soils and their effects on morphological characteristics. Methods: we conducted a completely randomized trial as factorial. Different concentrations of  Cu (0, 150, 300, and 400 mg/ Kg of dried soil) were used. After four weeks growth on contaminated soil, parameters such as...
