Remote Sensing (RS) technology provides regular monitoring of alfalfa farms, as a major source forage production worldwide. Phenological characteristics derived from time series RS imagery provide valuable information to estimate crop yield accurately. In this study, we computed spectral vegetation indices (SVIs) Landsat 8 and PROBA-V images extract temporal farms throughout the growth periods ...

BACKGROUND Pelvic ring injury classification traditionally is made using plain radiographs. Recent studies suggest that computed tomography (CT)-generated images have higher diagnostic accuracy than plain films for the classification of acetabular fractures. However, similar studies have not been performed for pelvic ring injuries. The purpose of this study was to compare CT-generated and plain...

PURPOSE 45,XY,t(13;14)(q10;q10) karyotype can suggest infertility associated with more or less severe oligospermia in male adults. In addition, 45,XX,t(13;14)(q10;q10) karyotype carries reproductive risks such as miscarriage or infertility in female adults. However, reports on the phenotype of this karyotype in children are very rare. This study was done to observe various phenotypes of this ka...

Interobserver reliability of the AO system of classification of fractures of the distal radius was assessed using plain radiographs and CT. Five observers classified 30 Colles'-type fractures using only plain radiographs; two months later they were reclassified using CT in addition. Interobserver reliability was poor in both series when detailed classification was used. By reducing the categori...

Co-enzyme Q10 (Co-Q10) is an essential component of the mitochondrial electron transport chain. Most cells are sensitive to co-enzyme Q10 (Co-Q10) deficiency. This deficiency has been implicated in several clinical disorders such as heart failure, hypertension, Parkinson's disease and obesity. The lipid lowering drug statin inhibits conversion of HMG-CoA to mevalonate and lowers plasma Co-Q10 c...

Letournal and Judet classification of acetabular fracture is widely used. The classification is based on the identification of fracture lines on plain radiographs. Three-dimensional CT scan was claimed to give a better view of the fracture line. Our study showed that intraobserver reproducibility and interobserver reliability were almost the same when classification was done by using plain radi...

Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is a specific malignant hematological disorder with a diagnostic hallmark of chromosome translocation t(15;17)(q22;q21). As a very rare secondary cytogenetic aberration in pediatric APL, ider(17q) (q10)t(15;17) was suggested to be a poor prognostic factor based on previous case reports.Here, we report a pediatric APL case with a rare karyotype of ider(17)(q10)...
