Although C reactive protein is intimately involved with the pathogenic mechanisms that drive acute coronary syndromes, there is no evidence that it is helpful for identifying patient groups who might benefit from particular treatment strategies

Background: Given the importance of sex drive in marital satisfaction, evaluating the effectiveness of easy and cost-effective therapies in this regard is essential. Objectives: The present study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of cognitive-behavioral counseling (CBC) based on film therapy on the marital satisfaction of women with low sex drive. Methods: This clinical trial was conducted ...

This paper describes the design concept of a new robot based on the direct-'drive method using rare-earth DC torque motors. Because these motors have high torque, light weight and compact size, we can construct robots with far better performance than those presently available. For example, we can eliminate all the transmission mechanisms between the motors and their loads, such as reducers and ...

In this paper, computer simulation of a three-phase synchronous motor drive is described. This drive/system is supplied with a new type of pulse-width modulated voltage source inverter (PWM VSI) whose amplitude of the first harmonic, compared to a conventional sinusoidal PWM VSI, is increased by about 17% and whose amplitude of higher harmonics is also reduced inversely proportional to their or...
