Citrin deficiency resulting from mutations of the SLC25A13 gene is associated with two major clinical phenotypes; neonatal intrahepatic cholestasis caused by citrin deficiency (NICCD) and adult-onset type 2 citrullinemia (CTLN2). In Korea, 6 cases of citrin deficiency were diagnosed based on biochemical and molecular findings. Four NICCD patients (2 boys and 2 girls) presented high citrulline l...

background: educational interventions to promote physical activity are one of the health priorities. a theoretical approach to promote and maintain physical activity is the transtheoretical model (ttm). this research was conducted to determine the effects of this model on students' physical activity habits in 2011. methods: this quasi-experimental study was conducted on 200 students in two grou...

background : lack of physical activity is the fourth common cause of human death. given the increased rate of sedentary life style among employees, the aim of this study was to evaluate physical activity status of governmental employees in changing stage based on the transtheoretical model (ttm) in hamadan, iran, in 2014. methods: this descriptive-analytical study was performed on 1200 governme...

Metabolic syndrome is a multiplex risk factor arising from abdominal obesity, insulin resistance and dyslipidemia. It increases the risk for cardiovascular complications, fatty liver disease and cognitive dysfunction. The prevalence is rampantly increasing among all age groups worldwide due to nutrition excess, physical inactivity and increased stress. Despite its epidemiological nature, treatm...

Purpose: To synthesize Mannich base imidazole derivatives, and evaluate their antimicrobial, nematicidal and larvicidal properties . Methods: Compounds 1a-g and 2a-g were prepared using a Mannich condensation method. The chemical structures of compounds 2a-g were confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (IR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance (H-NMR), carbon nuclear magnetic resonan...

In standard environments, both Data Link and the Physical (PHY) layers are defined in the Network Interface Cards (NIC) and they cannot be accessed in real-time via software. However, these lower layers contain valuable information that can be used to measure and to improve the performance of the network. Recently, SoNIC [1] was proposed to provide realtime access to the Physical Layer and it w...

background: regular physical activity (pa) has positive effects on physical, psychological and social health in the individual and the community. reduced pa is a major global problem that is increasing in prevalence every day. the present study aimed to determine the status of pa among adolescent girls and their perceptions of obesity prevention. materials and methods: the present descriptive-a...

background: promoting physical activity is one of the most effective strategies for reducing the risk of some chronic and non-communicable diseases. one of the theoretical approaches to the promotion of physical activity is the transtheoretical model. the aim of this study was to determine the effect of transtheoretical model-based education on promoting physical activity among employees of abu...

The high speed network becomes an important indicator of national power in information society. The bandwidth of LAN and WAN are over the Gbps but bandwidth of subscriber access network is dozens of Mbps. Task Force team for IEEE 802.3ah has accomplished the standardization of EPON which is one of next generation subscriber access networks but it doesn’t still have the bandwidth wide enough to ...
