Adult Lecithaster mugilis Yamaguti, 1970 were found in Moolgarda seheli, Valamugil engeli and Liza subviridis in the coastal waters of Cat Ba Island (Halong Bay, Vietnam). Specimens of Lecithaster sudzuhensis n. sp. were found in Mugil cephalus located in an estuary of the Kievka River in the Primorsky region of Russia. Studies have demonstrated that these species share significant morphometric...

AIM Physicians' inappropriate prescribing habits affect patients' lives both medically and financially. To avoid these unwanted situations, the World Health Organization defined the rational use of drugs (RUD) in 1985. This study aimed to investigate whether patients were as informed about their diagnosis and medication as anticipated and their knowledge about the RUD in general. METHODS A qu...

Background: Drilling is one of the most widely used process in orthopaedic surgical operation and the same drill bit is used a number of times in hospitals. Using the same drill bit a several times may be the cause of osteosynthesis and osteonecrosis. Methods: In the present work, the effect of repeated orthopaedic surgical twist drill bit on the tool wear, force, torque, temperature and chip m...

One of the most important subjects in relation of water resources quality in the many of river is the chemical composition of waters and conservation of water quality in the watershed. Geological formations in any region of the earth are the main surface and foundation that water flows on the bed and strata of formation, which in fact they affect their characteristics on water quality as positi...

Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (DDPG) algorithm is one of the most well-known reinforcement learning methods. However, this method inefficient and unstable in practical applications. On other hand, bias variance Q estimation target function are sometimes difficult to control. This paper proposes a Regularly Updated (RUD) policy gradient for these problems. theoretically proves that procedur...

Background: Zayandeh-rud river is the most important in central regions of Iran and present study aimed to provide new insights into microplastics (MPs) pollution surface water sediments this river. Methods: Water sediment samples were collected July 2021 from 19 sampling sites along Organics matters removed by wet peroxide oxidation (WPO), MPs extracted floatation ZnCl2 -saturated salt filtrat...

The 1990 Rudbar earthquake (Mw 7.3) broke along three right-stepping segments of the left-lateral fault, in western Alborz mountains (Iran), producing ?80 km surface rupture. Previously reported horizontal (?60 cm) field offsets were surprisingly low, and vertical (?95 unexpected, given relatively large moment release, shallow source depth, fault geometry, rake. We characterize displacement fro...
