Radar and spacecraft observations show the permanently shadowed regions around Mercury's North Pole to contain water ice complex organic material. One possible source of this material are impacts by interplanetary dust particles (IDPs), asteroids, comets. We have performed numerical simulations dynamical evolution asteroids comets over few Myr checked for their with Mercury. use N-body integrat...

background: assessment of quality of life (qol) is of paramount importance for improving postpartum qol which will in turn enhance qol of mothers, children, individuals, and the community. the present study aimed to evaluate and compare postpartum qol after cesarean section (cs), normal vaginal delivery (nvd), and water birth delivery. methods: this descriptive analytical, cross-sectional study...

OBJECTIVES The goal of our study was to assess the effect of water birth on obstetrical outcome, the maternal and neonatal infection rate in a selected low risk collective. STUDY DESIGN In this prospective observational study (1998-2002) 513 women, wished to have a water birth. The study was approved by the local ethical committee, informed consent was obtained. According to the course of del...

AIM To compare perinatal morbidity and mortality for babies delivered in water with rates for babies delivered conventionally (not in water). DESIGN Surveillance study (of all consultant paediatricians) and postal survey (of all NHS maternity units). SETTING British Isles (surveillance study); England and Wales (postal survey). SUBJECTS Babies born in the British Isles between April 1994 ...

This study aims to explore whether broadcasting heat health warnings (HHWs), to every household and whether the additional home delivery of bottled water labeled with messages will be effective in improving the behaviors and knowledge of elderly people to prevent heat-related illness. A community trial on heat-related-illness-prevention behaviors and knowledge for people aged between 65 and 84 ...

Nowadays the application of nanotechnology in different biomedical fields such as drug delivery is increasing due to its unique advantages. With this in mind, it is widely believed that nanogels as the nanometer-sized networked polymeric particles have a considerable impact on drug delivery systems as biocompatible nanocarriers due to their unique characteristics such as high loading capacity, ...

1. The effect of extracellular volume expansion (ECVE) during water diuresis, and of water diuresis alone, on the formation of free water in man was compared. 2. ECVE reduced free water formation at any given rate of distal delivery compared with water diuresis. Thus, ECVE depresses distal sodium chloride reabsorption. 3. This attenuation of free water formation occurred both when urine flow (V...

OBJECTIVES OF STUDY Comparison of chosen parameters of the I.-III. stage of labour by women, who conducted waterbirth (Group A) and by women, who delivered conventionally in horizontal position (Group B) and comparison of perinatal and postnatal results of newborns in both groups. DESIGN Retrospective study. SETTING Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, District Hospital Znojmo. METHOD...

Until recently, organometallic derivatives were generally viewed as moisture- and air-sensitive compounds, and consequently very challenging to synthesise and very demanding in terms of laboratory requirements (Schlenk techniques, dried solvent, glove box). However, an increasing number of stable, water-soluble organometallic compounds are now available, and organometallic chemistry in aqueous ...
