background: maternal nutrition during pregnancy affects the birth weight of neonates. some of the undesirable pregnancy outcomes are linked to lower birth weights. this study aimed to assess the relationship between maternal dietary patterns, weight gain during pregnancy and nitric oxide (no), as an endothelial relaxing factor, and the possible effects on birth weight.materials and methods: at ...

The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of sex, season and year of birth on growth rate of biometric measurements and body weight gain of Thoroughbred foals during first six months of life. 103 Thoroughbred foals (53 colts and 50 fillies) from Golejewko Stud born between 2006 and 2008, were used in this study. Thoroughbred foals born in winter months were characterized by significantly ...

A power efficient gain adjustment technique is described to realize programmable gain current mirror. The dissipation power changes over the wide gain range of structure are almost negligible. This property is in fact very interesting from power management perspective, especially in analog designs. The simple structure and constant frequency bandwidth are other ever-interesting merits of propos...

this paper presents the new topology of three phase on line uninterruptible power supply (ups) by employing t-source inverter (tsi) with maximum constant boost pulse width modulation (pwm) control and the results are compared with the conventional uninterruptible power supply (ups). the conventional ups consists of voltage source inverter (vsi) with step up transformer or dc-dc booster which de...

Rainbow trout is the most important species of cold water fishes in Iran and the feeding diets which improve the quality and growth of this fish are of great importance. Rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss (n=360) specimens with approximate weight of 2±0.02g were fed with different concentrations of sesame seed in their diet instead of fish meal for 120 days. Feeding diets were prepared in 3 sesa...

A set of hybrid microstrip patch and semi-circular cavity antennas is introduced. The semi-circular cavity is implemented using Half-mode Substrate Integrated Waveguide (HMSIW) technique. Different shapes of patch include rectangular, semi-circular and equilateral triangular are excited using proximity effect by the circular SIW cavity at its TM010 mode of operation. The whole structures have b...
