Dr.Mirsadraei and colleagues performed an interesting study about the lung HRCT findings in chemical warfare patients who suffering from long-term pulmonary complications. They found that air trapping and mosaic attenuation were the most common lung HRCT findings. Also they divided patients in different clinical entities according to the lung HRCT findings (Bronchiolitis Oblitrans, pulmonary fi...

ABSTRACT In this review, we explore the challenges of chronic pain and fatigue in clinical practice. Both are common, troubling frequently overlapping symptoms, describe both burden ‘clinical problem’. We commonly associated symptoms possible pathological associations, including variant connective tissue (joint hypermobility), small fibre neuropathy, mast cell activation, dysregulated ...

BACKGROUND Buprenorphine is a partial µ-opioid receptor agonist used for maintenance treatment of opioid dependence. Because of the partial agonism and high receptor affinity, it may precipitate withdrawal symptoms during induction in persons on full µ-opioid receptor agonists. Therefore, current guidelines and drug labels recommend leaving a sufficient time period since the last full agonist u...

Purpose of Research. Numerous studies have reported comorbidities, overlapping symptoms, and shared risk factors among cases of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) and conduct disorder (CD). We present three adolescent males aged 13-16 years with conduct disorder having past history of ADHD and ODD. Principal Result. The symptom profile especiall...

Objectives Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and spondyloarthritis (SpA) have some overlapping clinical features, i.e. gut and joint inflammation. Cytokines of interleukin 17(IL-17)/IL-23 axis play a pathogenic role in both diseases. Integrins (ITGs) regulate migration of immune cells to inflamed tissues (ITGβ7 into gut, ITGβ2 into gut and also to other tissues). In this study, we search for dif...

The discovery of overlapping genes in the viruses 4 x 1 7 4 and SV40 has generated a number of interesting questions. Here we are concerned with the contribution of information theory to the analysis of overlapping genes. The purpose of this letter is to comment on Yockey's 1979 application of information theory to these problems.

Community detection is a task of fundamental importance in social network analysis. Community structures enable us to discover the hidden interactions among the network entities and summarize the network information that can be applied in many applied domains such as bioinformatics, finance, e-commerce and forensic science. There exist a variety of methods for community detection based on diffe...
