Few studies have evaluated how the results of bronchoscopic lung biopsy (BLB) affect clinical management. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the clinical usefulness of BLB in the overall management of patients with diffuse pulmonary diseases. The study was a retrospective analysis of patients who underwent fluoroscopy-guided BLB over a 2-yr period. Patients whose biopsy was of a...

Abstract Despite Iran’s longstanding reputation for sustainable water management, the country currently faces mounting water-related challenges caused by population growth, industrial development, urban sprawl, lifestyle changes, climate change, territorial conflicts, poor and insufficient public participation. Since past present share similar origins patterns, addressing is imperative. After g...

BACKGROUND CARP-1/CCAR1, a perinuclear phospho-protein, regulates signaling by adriamycin, steroids, or growth factors. However, intracellular events that regulate CARP-1-dependent cell growth are not fully understood. RESULTS Here we investigated whether CARP-1 is involved in signaling induced by the protein kinase A inhibitor H89. Treatments of human breast cancer cells with H89 resulted in...

Analysis of mechanical systems is based on Newton’s laws of motion. Usually, ideal (or point) masses are considered in the analysis, as shown in the Figure 1. Motion is considered with respect to a non-accelerating reference frame, usually a fixed point on earth or another non-accelerating object. The equation of motion for a mass m(t) is based on Newton’s second law which expresses the conserv...

We announce our successful computation of a list of representatives of the conjugacy classes of subgroups of Sn for n ≤ 18, including the 7 274 651 classes of subgroups of S18.

The dietary use of 0.25% Myco-Ad has been proven to effectively prevent the toxic effects of aflatoxin, ochratoxin and T-2 toxin in broilers. Studies were conducted to evaluate the fumonisin (FUM) adsorption capacity of Myco-Ad and its efficacy in preventing the deleterious effects of high levels of FUM in broiler chicks; as part of the regulatory anti-mycotoxin additives (AMA) approval process...
