pterygium is characterized by an elastic degeneration of the conjunctiva that extends across the limbos and invades the cornea. the recurrence rate is varied from 25-80% after primary closure to 6% with free conjunctival and iimbal grafts. several adjunctive therapies have been investigated for recurrent pte¬rygium. this article presents a 52-year-old athletic man who was seen for evaluation of...

one of the common chronic inflammatory skin diseases is acne vulgaris that affects up to 80% of a teen-age population. the progress of acne lesions is due to colonization of propionibacterium acnes (p .acnes) in hair follicles. treatment of acne includes topical or systemic therapy or combination therapy, with a tendency to perform topical therapy in mild to moderate acne. nanoemulsions, small ...

background: viral warts are a common problem especially in young people. they are important as they are transmittable and cause social embarrassment. though there are several treatments for viral warts, none offer a fast, simple, complete cure by itself. a simple and inexpensive way of treatment would be outstanding, especially in developing countries. we aimed to determine the efficacy and saf...

Personal protection measures against biting arthropods include topical insect repellents, area repellents, insecticide-treated bednets and treated clothing. The literature on the effectiveness of personal protection products against arthropods is mainly limited to studies of prevention of bites, rather than prevention of disease. Tungiasis was successfully controlled by application of topical r...

We present several results for the periods of periodic points of sup-norm nonexpansive maps. In particular, we show that the period of each periodic point of a sup-norm non-expansive map f : M → M , where M ⊂ R, is at most maxk 2 ( n k ) . This upper bound is smaller than 3 and improves the previously known bounds. Further, we consider a special class of sup-norm non-expansive maps, namely topi...

Various researchers have used coding strategies such word order, case and pronominal marking to predict asymmetries between different object functions and/or information structure roles such as topics and foci. Moreover, some studies have also suggested that there exists a correlation between different grammatical functions and information structure roles. This paper analyzes object marking in ...
