A 77-year-old female presented to our facility with a fi ve-year history of progressive urinary bladder retention and voiding diffi culties. She underwent a pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination as a part of her lower urinary tract symptoms evaluation, and for treatment planning. MRI with a torso phased-array superfi cial coil was performed in a 1.5T magnetic fi eld equipment. We ...

The article proposes a new approach to the economic evaluation of office robotic devices on example ROBIN companion robot developed in Republic Armenia. It is proposed employ patient care healthcare sector. known that when child prolonged isolation, there are problems with creating such conditions around him will allow avoid getting into stressful situations. A method for determining reduction ...

abstract background: musculoskeletal disorders (msds) are a serious problem among the nursing staff. mental workload is the major cause of msds among nursing staff. the aim of this study was to investigate the mental workload dimensions and their association with msds among nurses of alzahra hospital, affi liated to isfahan university of medical sciences. materials and methods: this descriptive...

Th e purpose of the present study was to investigate the reliability and validity of the Turkish version of the Tromso Social Intelligence Scale (TSIS) developed by Silvera, Martinussen, and Dahl (2001). 719 students from Sakarya University participated in the study. Construct validity and criterion related validity and reliability were assessed. Factor analysis for Turkish university students ...

In the contribution the stress of die materials of thermal fatigue is defi ned and material life is derived theoretically and compared with the measured values. The important properties of the die materials as thermal conductivity, coeffi cient of thermal expansivity, modulus of elasticity and mechanical properties are described. Binding to it single die materials as carbon steels and chrome-tu...

background: the accuracy and reproducibility of measurements in a locally made three dimensional (3d) simulator was assessed and compared with manual caliper measurements. materials and methods: a total of 20 casts were scanned by our laser scanner. software capabilities included dimensional measurements, transformation and rotation of the cast as a whole, separation and rotation of each tooth ...

To study energy recovery from low temperature wastewater during industrial production, a water-boiling heat transfer experimental device was built. A casing evaporator with length of 1450 mm, an inner tube diameter 30 and annular space gap 14.2 mm is taken as the main research object. The boiling characteristics water in area were experimentally studied by adjusting inlet (60? 85?C) hot pressur...

Many formal models suggest that parties or candidates should locate at the electoral mean. Yet, there is no consistent evidence of such convergence across political systems. Schofield’s (2007) Valence Theorem proves that when valence differences across parties are large, there is non-convergence to the mean. Convergence to the mean depends on the value of the convergence depends, c. When c is h...

The promise of coupling between magnetization and electric polarization and the potential to manipulate one through the other has become in recent years a driving force for many experimental works on multiferroic materials. The ultimate goal of these studies would be a single-phase material exhibiting a strong coupling between inherent ferromagnetic and ferroelectric ordering at room temperatur...
