objective neurodevelopmental disability is one of the most common problems of children referred to  pediatric neurology clinics. these children may suffer from speech delay, intellectual deficiency and behavioral disorder. some patients with neurodevelopomental delay, especially those with intellectual disability and speech problems, have abnormal electroencephalograms, without clinical seizure...

water stress decrease water content and water potential between soil and root. therefore, water potential  of plant declines and plant faces with water stress. water stress in different stages of growth can be useful in different aspects. water stress can be practiced from two point of view, increasing water use efficiency (wue) and improving cultural practices. no irrigation in insensitive sta...

Irrigation scheduling is an important issue for crop management, in a general context of limited water resources and increasing concern about agricultural productivity. Methods to optimize crop irrigation should take into account the impact of water stress on plant growth and the water balance in the plant-soil-atmosphere system. In this article, we propose a methodology to solve the irrigation...

INTRODUCTION The Thulium fiber laser has recently been tested as a potential alternative to the Holmium:YAG laser for lithotripsy. This study explores use of a short taper for expanding the Thulium fiber laser beam at the distal tip of a small-core fiber. METHODS Thulium fiber laser radiation with a wavelength of 1,908 nm, 10 Hz pulse rate, 70 mJ pulse energy, and 1-millisecond pulse duration...

PURPOSE The efficacy of antibiotic therapy for acute sinusitis is controversial.
