In this clinical trial 100 children less than 4 years old,who had  underwent non-pharyngeal surgeries in Kerman university hospitals were selected randomly and investigated for early airway complications after tracheal extubation.patients were divided into two groups:the first group(n=50) were extubated while they were still anesthetised and the second group(n=50) were extubated after regaining...

Objective The main purpose of this article is to choose the best predictive model for IVF/ICSI classification and to calculate the probability of IVF/ICSI success for each couple using Artificial intelligence. Also, we aimed to find the most effective factors for prediction of ART success in infertile couples. MaterialsAndMethods In this cross-sectional study, the data of 486 patients are colle...

a field study was conducted to evaluate the agronomic response of eight isolines of cv. clark on a clay loam soil (at karaj-iran, 35048´) to four plant population densities of 11.3, 18.5, 68.5, and 103.4 plants per square metre. significant yield increase was obtained as a result of higher plant density. differences among the cv. clark isolines were significant (p

partitioning of photoassimilates between the sinks is one of the most important physiological processes related to the yield of crops which are affected by drought stress. therefore, the effect of drought stress in flowering and grain filling stages, on the percentage partitioning of photoassimilates among different organs was studied in 14 rapeseed cultivars in a split plot experiment based on...

the laryngeal mask airway (lma) is an important addition to the anesthetist's equipments. however, its usage may involve some complications. we have encountered an unusual and potentially serious complication using this equipment. a 45-year old man underwent cataract surgery under general anesthesia. after the induction of anesthesia, a size 4 of the reusable classic lma was inserted without an...

background: precise diagnosis of disease risk factors via efficient statistical models is the primary step for reducing the heavy costs of breast cancer, as one of the most highly prevalent cancer throughout the world. therefore, the aim of this study was to present a recently introduced statistical model in order to assess its proficiency for model fitting. methods: the information of 1465 eli...

reinforced tubes are commonly used to minimize the opportunity of upper airway obstruction in patients at risk. there are a few reports of the airway obstruction resulted from kinked reinforced tubes. this report describes the obstruction of a reinforced tube in an adult patient who underwent tonsillectomy. under general anesthesia; an armoured endotracheal tube was inserted into the trachea un...

Background and purpose: Transverse problems in the maxilla (high arched- narrow hard plates) can cause respiratory disorders. Palatal expansion can be helpful in this way. The present study aimed at evaluating the effect of bone borne expansion and tooth borne palatal expansion on airway volume. Materials and methods: A review study was performed by search in Google Scholar, Scopus, PubMed, Em...

the objective of the present field experiment was to examine how plant density and enhanced source, i.e. thinning treatments, may affect grain yield and its components for a non-prolific maize hybrid, sc704. the environment of the hybrid maize crop was changed at intervals over its life cycle by removing every other plant in rows equispaced at 75 cm apart with a population of 13.34 plants m...

the widespread use of sulfur mustard  (sm) as a chemical warfare agent in the  past century has proved its long-lasting toxic effects. despite a lot of research over the past decades on iranian veterans, there are still major gaps in the sm literature. transforming growth  factor  (tgf-β),  a  cytokine  that  affects  many  different  cell processes,  has  an important role in the lungs of pati...
