The recently developed dynamic jaw technology of tomotherapy can reduce craniocaudal dose spread without much prolonging the treatment time. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of the dynamic jaw mode for tomotherapy of breast cancer. Static tomotherapy plans of the whole breast and supraclavicular regional lymph nodes, and plans for the whole breast only were generated in 25 patients ...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS In most fruit crops, storage quality varies greatly between regions and seasons, causing significant commercial loss. Understanding the sources of this variability will contribute to the knowledge of fruit developmental physiology and may also benefit commercial fruit production via altered managements that reduce it or forecasts that predict it. A causal-chain relationship ...

Hyperspectral scattering is a promising technique for nondestructive sensing of multiple quality attributes of apple fruit. This research evaluated nd compared different mathematical models for describing the hyperspectral scattering profiles over the spectral region between 450 nm and 000 nm in order to select an optimal model for predicting fruit firmness and soluble solids content (SSC) of ‘...

miRNAs are important regulators of translation and have been associated with the pathogenesis of a number of cardiovascular diseases including stroke and may be possible prognostic biomarkers. The purpose of the present study was to determine the expression levels of miRNAs in the sera of subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) patients and to evaluate their relationships with the severity and clinical ...

The nutritional problems in almond orchards have increased because of alkaline soils and insufficient nutrition. This study was done to evaluate the effect of nano-chelate super plus ZFM (Zinc, Iron and Manganese) spraying on quantitative and qualitative characteristics of almond commercial cultivars. This work was carried out in factorial experiment base on randomized complete block design wit...

Traditional classification for subclass of the Seyfert galaxies is visual inspection or using a quantity defined as flux ratio between Balmer line and forbidden line. One algorithm deep learning Convolution Neural Network (CNN) has shown successful results. We building 1-dimension CNN model to distinguish 1.9 spectra from 2 galaxies. find our can recognize with an accuracy over 80% pick out add...

Carbon monoxide bound to cytochrome c oxidase has been observed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy between 10 K and 280 K in the dark and during and after continuous photolysis. CO bound to a3Fe absorbs near 1963 cm-1, with minor bands at lower frequencies. Photolysis at low temperatures transfers CO to CuB, with the major component near 2062 cm-1 and a minor one near 2043 cm-1. Vibrati...

A study was carried out to determine the effects of different mulch materials on plant growth, some quality properties and yield in melon cultivars in high altitude environmental condition. Clear mulch application affected more plant growth than the other applications. Fruit width, fruit length, dry matter in fruit, total soluble solid, color, husk thickness, fruit fresh thickness, fruit firmne...

During routine cadaveric dissection for the undergraduate students in the Department of Anatomy, we noted multiple muscular variations in a middle-aged male cadaver. All the variations were seen at the back of thigh (flexor compartment) of right lower limb. An anomalous muscle of 17 cm length with average width of 1.5 cm. was inserted to the semitendinosus, a third head of biceps femoris of 6.5...
