Manuscript received September 10, 2015; revised manuscript received Octob were removed (Figure 1B). Flow was restored, revealing a tight proximal stenosis (Figure 1C) that, after administration of copious intracoronary nitrates, completely resolved, suggesting cocaine-induced vasospasm (Figure 1D). Optical coherence tomography (OCT) was performed (Online Video 1), demonstrating only mild midves...

background: the ultimate goal of diabetes control is hba 1c improvement. the purpose of this study was to assess the effect of empowerment model on hba 1c among adolescents with type 1 diabetes. methods: the present semi-experimental study was carried out on some 47 diabetic adolescents in order to investigate the effect of an educational program based on the empowerment model on hba 1c among a...

Coenzyme Q 10 is a natural antioxidant and free radicals scavenger. In the present study, we examined effect of coenzyme Q 10 on hemoglobin A 1C , serum urea and creatinine in alloxan-induced Type 1 diabetic rats. Thirty Sprage-Dawley male rats were divided into three groups randomly; group one as control, group two diabetic untreatment, and group three treatments with coenzyme Q ...

The 0D-1D Lithium titanate (Li(4)Ti(5)O(12)) heterogeneous nanostructures were synthesized through the solvothermal reaction using lithium hydroxide monohydrate (Li(OH)·H(2)O) and protonated trititanate (H(2)Ti(3)O(7)) nanowires as the templates in an ethanol/water mixed solvent with subsequent heat treatment. A scanning electron microscope (SEM) and a high resolution transmission electron micr...

1.3) voltage-dependent calcium currents. Voltage-dependent calcium channels (VDCCs) are multimeric complexes composed of a pore-forming ␣ 1 subunit together with several accessory subunits, including ␣ 2 ␦, ␤, and, in some cases, ␥ subunits. A family of VDCCs known as the L-type channels are formed specifically from ␣ 1S (skeletal muscle), ␣ 1C (in heart and brain), ␣ 1D (mainly in brain, heart...

Voltage-dependent calcium channels (VDCCs) are multimeric complexes composed of a pore-forming alpha(1) subunit together with several accessory subunits, including alpha(2)delta, beta, and, in some cases, gamma subunits. A family of VDCCs known as the L-type channels are formed specifically from alpha(1S) (skeletal muscle), alpha(1C) (in heart and brain), alpha(1D) (mainly in brain, heart, and ...

abstract: so far, few studies investigate the correlation of amount of sleep and blood glucose control among diabetic patients. the aim of this study was to determine the correlation of amount of sleep with hemoglobin a 1c and fasting blood sugar in diabetic patients. in this study, 101 patients with type 2 diabetes were studied. demographic data and amount of sleep were collected by questionna...

the zagros forests (west of iran) have been highly exploited in recent decades by human impacts. easy access, abundance and variety of valuable forest yields have led to population growth density, creation of new residential areas and deforestation activities. in order to determinate the distribution and rate of deforestation from 1995 to 2006 by using the satellite imagery (irs-1c and  landsat...

The contrast in the semantics of Turkish object NPs with and without overt case morphology has received some attention in the literature (see, e.g., Dede 1986, Knecht 1986, Tura 1986, Enç 1991). The NPs with overt case morphology in (1a) and (1b) yield specific readings, whereas the NPs without case morphology in (1c) and (1d) are nonspecific. In this squib, I will examine nonspecific objects a...
