introduction: allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (hsct) has been reported to be a successful curative treatment in aml patients. myeloablative conditioning (mac) is used more frequent as a preparing regimen. this study attempts to compare the outcome of patients who has received mac and reduced- intensity conditioning (ric). methods: totally, 618 patients with aml underwent hsct...

the aim of this research is to study the relations between personality types (introverted and extroverted), intelligence, sexuality and semantic conditioning. for this purpose, 94 subjects were selected through systematic random sampling from among the students of the first and second semesters of psychology at islamic azad university of roudhen. eysenck personality test and raven iq test were ...

Effects of intra-central amygdala administration of L-arginine, a nitric oxide precursor, and NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl-ester (L NAME), a nitric oxide synthase inhibitor, on the morphine-induced sensitization and also on the expression of morphine-induced place conditioning in rats were studied. Subcutaneous (s.c.) administration of morphine (2.5, 5 and 7.5 mg/kg) induced place conditioning. R...

UNLABELLED A classical conditioning framework is often used for clinical reasoning about pain that persists after tissue healing. However, experimental studies demonstrating classically conditioned pain in humans are lacking. The current study tested whether non-nociceptive somatosensory stimuli can come to modulate pain thresholds after being paired with painful nociceptive stimuli in healthy ...

The imaging problem of elastography is an inverse problem. The nature of an inverse problem is that it is ill-conditioned. We consider properties of the mathematical map which describes how the elastic properties of the tissue being reconstructed vary with the field measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This map is a nonlinear mapping, and our interest is in proving certain conditioning...

Multiple efforts have been made to develop small-diameter tissue engineered vascular grafts using a great variety of bioreactor systems at different steps of processing. Nevertheless, there is still an extensive need for a compact all-in-one system providing multiple and simultaneous processing. The aim of this project was to develop a new device to fulfill the major requirements of an ideal sy...

BACKGROUND Exposing the developing tissue to flow and pressure in a bioreactor has been shown to enhance tissue formation in tissue-engineered heart valves. Animal studies showed excellent functionality in these valves in the pulmonary position. However, they lack the mechanical strength for implantation in the high-pressure aortic position. Improving the in vitro conditioning protocol is an im...

The primary goal of providing complete denture prosthesis is to restore function and esthetics. Arbitrary placement teeth may cause dislodgment during function. Neutral zone a concept which emphasize on placing the in where forces between tongue cheeks or lips are equal. In this case report novel dental technique be discussed uses, used die pins retain tissue conditioning material record neutra...
