Background: High-intensity interval training is a new training method that has been less explored in patients. Aim: The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of eight weeks of interval training with continuous training on changes in HRR and lipid profile in cardiac patients post-coronary artery bypass graft. Methods: In this clinical study, 30 cardiac patients of Tehran Heart Center...

This paper describes work undertaken converting the Artificial Stock Market (LeBaron et al., 1999; Johnson, 2002) to using interval arithmetic instead of floating point arithmetic, the latter having been shown in an earlier article to be the cause of changed behaviour in the ASM (Polhill et al., in press). Results of both a naive (potentially automatable) conversion and one involving a more in-...

in this study, residues of imidacloprid (confidor) were measured in greenhouse cucumbers in mazandaran province, iran. confidor 200 sl was applied at the recommended rate (30.0 g ai ha-1) and its double (60.0 g ai ha-1). samples were collected at 1 h to 21 days after application and analyzed to determine the content and dissipation rate of imidacloprid. . analysis was carried out by the quecher...

Often, for medical decisions based on test scores, a single decision threshold is determined and the test results are dichotomized into positive and negative diagnoses. It is therefore important to identify the decision threshold with the least number of misclassifications. The proposed method uses trichotomization: it defines an Uncertain Interval around the point of intersection between the t...
