Editor’s key points † The McGrath videolaryngoscope was compared with the C-MAC videolaryngoscope in patients with anticipated difficult airway. † The C-MAC videolaryngoscope allowed a quicker and easier tracheal intubation. † This research adds important data to ongoing comparisons between various newer airway devices. Background. Difficult and failed intubations, although rarely encountered, ...

Since the popularity of internet and new communication technologies, the issue of information sharing has become a matter of debate. In digital world, distances are meaningless and Information could be transferred to different parts of the world in few seconds. In this paper we discuss the effect of new technologies on licensed information and copyright law. We take this position that in modern...

the purpose of this paper is to investigate the views of six qur’an commentators, with different backgrounds, i.e., tabresi, zamakhshari, fakhr razi, meybodi, and tabatabaei, in order to find which one the three theories in religious language, i.e., equivocalism, univocalism, and analogous language is more consistent with their comments on quran. to reach this aim, first, the three theories in ...

This paper focuses on an unsettling example of experimental labour - the Human Landing Catch (HLC). The HLC is a cheap and reliable technique to produce data on mosquito densities in a defined area. It requires only a human volunteer to sit over night with his legs exposed, a headlamp to spot mosquitoes, and a rubber tube and plastic cup to catch them as they come to feed on him. The HLC formed...

this study focuses on the optimization of the plane structure. sequential quadratic programming (sqp) will be utilized, which is one of the most efficient methods for solving nonlinearly constrained optimization problems. a new formulation for the second order sensitivity analysis of the two-dimensional finite element will be developed. all the second order required derivatives will be calculat...

Time-series prediction has been a very well researched topic in recent studies. Some popular approaches to this problem are the traditional statistical methods e.g. multiple linear regression and moving average, and neural network with the Multi Layer Perceptron which has shown its supremacy in time-series prediction. In this study, we used a different approach based on evolving clustering algo...
