Compact model for expressing turn-off waveform for advanced trench gate IGBTs is proposed even under high current density condition. The model is analytically formulated only with device structure parameters so that no fitting parameters are required. The validity of the model is confirmed with TCAD simulation for 1.2 kV to 6.5 kV class IGBTs. The proposed turn-off model is sufficiently accurat...

background: coronary artery disease (cad) is a multifactorial and heterogenic disease. recently, genome-wide association studies have reported that rs1333040 (c/t) and rs1004638 (a/t) single nucleotide polymorphisms (snps) in the 9p21 locus have very strong association with cad. this study aimed to examine these associations in southwest of iran. methods: blood samples were collected from 200 c...

Although genetic variants that affect susceptibility to coronary artery disease (CAD) have been greatly known, a number of these single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) remain to be analyzed in populations with different ethnicities. CAD is influenced by numerous genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors, and is an important reason for mortality around the globe. In this study, a novel SNP (...

background and aims. the aim was to evaluate the effect of casein phosphopeptide–amorphous calcium phosphate (cpp-acp) on microtensile bond strength (µtbs) to carious affected dentin (cad) using etch-and-rinse and self-etch adhesive systems. materials and methods. the occlusal surface of 32 human molars with moderate occlusal caries was removed. infected dentin was removed until reaching cad an...

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a common health problem with a high rate of disability and death. Dyslipidemia and altered metabolism of Apo-lipoproteins are involved in the CAD pathogenesis. The current study investigated two common polymorphisms (rs429358 and rs7412) and promoter DNA methylation status of APOE in the Iranian CAD patients and control subjects. Two hundred angiographi...

the adipokines, leptin and adiponectin, have a prominent role in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (cad). the inflammatory enzyme, myeloperoxidase (mpo) also has an important role in the pathogenesis of cad. association of the adipokines with mpo remains to be resolved in patients with cad. in this case-control study, 100 patients with cad and 100 control subjects were appropriately r...
