objective(s): previous studies showed that skeletal muscle microcirculation was reduced in chronic heart failure. the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of endurance training on capillary and arteriolar density of fast and slow twitch muscles in rats with chronic heart failure. materials and methods: four weeks after surgeries (left anterior descending (lad) artery occlusion), chr...

extensive application of silica nanoparticles (snps) in various industrial products has led to the development of silica extraction methodologies out of various waste products. rice husk is an agricultural waste with a high content of amorphous silica. however, the presence of metal ion impurities and unburned carbon in the rice husk content may present an adverse effect on product color and pu...

in the field trials of slow-release nollusicide, copper content mcckechnie chemical inc. 30 cuso4 5h2o or 7.5 cupellet/sinking material 7 days release life were tested against the common aquatic snails bulinus truncatus, physa acuta and lymnaea gedrosiana in stagnant water bodies in khuzestan province, south-west of iran. snail densities before treatment and 7 days after mollucicide application...

introduction: intranodal pathways of atrioventricular (av) node play a vital role in the delay of conduction time in response to various atrial inputs. the present study was aimed to determine the frequency-dependent electrophysiological properties of concealed slow pathway according to a functional model of isolated rabbit atrioventricular node preparation after fast pathway ablation. methods:...

increasing development of nano-technology in optics and photonics by using modern methods of light control in waveguide devices and requiring miniaturization and electromagnetic devices such as antennas, transmission and storage as well as improvement in the electromagnetic tool, have led researchers to use the phenomenon of electromagnetically induced transparency (eit) and similar phenomena i...

conclusions de-stress training program significantly decreased the stress of mothers with show paced children, and the training effect was persistent. results data presented a significant difference between the control and experiment groups. also, results did not show a significant difference between the post-test and follow up. it means that the effect of training was persistent. background ha...

Slow-fast dynamical systems, i.e., singularly or non-singularly perturbed systems possess slow invariant manifolds on which trajectories evolve slowly. Since the last century various methods have been developed for approximating their equations. This paper aims, one hand, to propose a classification of most important them into two great categories: singular perturbation-based and curvature-base...
