An accurate prediction of real value accessible surface area (ASA) from protein sequence alone has wide application in the field of bioinformatics and computational biology. ASA has been helpful in understanding the 3-dimensional structure and function of a protein, acting as high impact feature in secondary structure prediction, disorder prediction, binding region identification and fold recog...

Compression of the septal perforator branches of the left anterior descending artery (systolic obliteration and diastolic reopacification during arteriography) has been proposed as a marker of idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis (IHSS). Among 568 unselected coronary arteriograms this angiographic finding was pronounced in 11 of 17 patients with IHSS; in 12 of 44 with aortic stenosis (AS)...

since the surface water is one of the main potable water resources, the usage of chlorine as a disinfectant has increased. consequently the production rate of disinfection by-products (dbps) such as trihalomethane (thm) compounds has grown dramatically. in this paper the thms concentration changes in the sangar water treatment plant (swtp) and rasht water distribution system (rwds) is presented...

PURPOSE Plasma volume and blood volume are imaging-derived parameters that are often used to evaluation intracranial tumors. Physiologically, these parameters are directly related, but their two different methods of measurements, T1-dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE)- and T2-dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC)-MR utilize different model assumptions and approaches. This poses the question of whet...
