objective: the global hiv epidemic continues to expand and exceeding previous predictions. an effective vaccine represents the best hope to curtail the hiv epidemic. dna vaccines induce humoral and cellular responses and mimic live vaccines without their pathogenic potential. the importance of cd8+ ctl responses in controlling hiv and siv viremia has led to production of a series of vaccine can...

epilepsy is one of the common neurologic disorders in children. drug side-effects are one of the important problems in treating patients with epilepsy. using the antiepileptic medication may cause different side effects such as disorder in bone and vitamin d metabolism. sodium valproate is one of the antiepileptic medications used widely. some of its side effects include digestive disorder, inc...

To evaluate the changes of ABR values in hyperbilirubinemic newborns, 85 cases with severe jaundice (total bilirubin levels over 16 mg/dL and direct bilirubin less than 2 mg/dL) were selected from those admitted to Children's Medical Center by simple sampling method. These infants had no other problem except jaundice. ABR was taken before treatment in all cases and in some (10 cases) after...

An enantioselective phosphine-catalyzed transformation has been developed for the synthesis of chiral cyclobutene triesters and fluorinated spirocyclic compounds. The strategy involved a P(III)/P(V) redox cycling process, via in situ reduction phosphine oxide with phenylsilane. This catalytic methodology enabled functionalized cyclobutenes (24 examples, up to 94% ee). On occasion extension this...

Objectives: Auditory Brain Stem Response (ABR) is a result of eight nerve and brain stem nuclei stimulation. Several factors may affect the latencies, interpeak latencies and amplitudes in ABR especially sex and age. In this study, age and sex influence on ABR were studied. Methods: This study was performed on 120 cases (60 males and 60 females) at Akhavan rehabilitation center of university...
