in the present research, molecular detection of bovine leukocyte adhesion deficiency (blad) and complex vertebral malformation (cvm)in a population of iranian holstein cows has been carried outusing milk somatic cells by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism(pcr-rflp). the blad and cvm are monogenic and autosomal recessive heredity lethal syndrome in holstein-friesi...

background : due to the increased prevalence of celiac disease in chromosomal anomalies and other congenital anomalies, this study was conducted to evaluate the seroprevalence of celiac disease (cd) in patients with congenital heart defects (chd). methods: this case-control study was done on 1002 children in two groups of chd patients (n=402) and controls (n=600). the serum tissue transglutamia...

to explore the possibility of using graphene based biosensor, adsorption of hydrogen peroxide on graphene has been investigated using density functional theory. the electronic properties of defect free and defective graphene in the presence of different number of hydrogen peroxide have been studied. the graphene with the most stable configuration defect named as sw defect is considered. the hig...

Stafne bone defect is a bone depression containing salivary gland or fatty soft tissue on the lingual surface of the mandible. The most common location is within the submandibular gland fossa and often close to the inferior border of the mandible. This defect is asymptomatic and generally discovered only incidentally during radiographic examination of the area. Stafne bone defect appears as a w...

this paper deals with an inspection of defects including corrosion and leakage by acoustic emission (ae) in an oil tank floor. in contrast to intrusive methods such as magnetic flux leakage, eddy current or ultrasonic, there is no need to emptying and entering the tank in ae method in order to inspection. in this research ae investigation and ae source location is presented in detail. the resul...

background: hypoalbuminemia may be caused by liver disease, nephrotic syndrome, burns, protein-losing entropathy, malnutrition, and metabolic stress. alterations in albumin in metabolic stress such as cardiac surgery have been previously investigated. we studied serum albumin concentration in children with congenital heart disease and also the association of hypoalbuminemia with mortality and m...

the ellis-van creveld (evc) syndrome is a chondroectodermal dysplasia and is characterized by the cardinal features of disproportionate short stature, polydactyly, hidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, and congenital heart malformations, along with other skeletal and dental abnormalities. it is a rare condition, with very few cases reported in the medical literature. it is inherited as an autosomal re...

background: to determine the prevalence and characteristics of birth defects in perinatal infants in hubei province during 200l-2008. methods: the prevalence of birth defects in perinatal infants delivered after 28 weeks or more was analyzed in hubei surveillance hospitals during 200l-2008. results: the incidence of birth defects in perinatal infants from 200l to 2008 was 120.0 per 10,000 birth...

Objective- Current trends emphasize the acceleration of fracture healing on the ground that in doing so, the limitation of mobility and complications associated with recovery period are reduced. The present study aims to compare autogenic costal cartilage with Chitosan scaffold in canine humeral defect healing. Design- Experimental study Animal-15 adult male dogs Procedures-...
