nowadays, compressible flow transmission pipelines are used in many industrial processes. pipelines in chemical processes, gas turbine power plants, natural gas transmission lines, and high pressure steam transmission pipelines are some industrial examples. therefore, learning the manner of treatment of a transient compressible fluid flow in pipelines with junctions and branches is important. i...

background: the effective therapeutic dose of pralidoxime methylsulphate for organophosphate (op) poisoning is necessary to be clarified. this study was designed to comparatively assess the blood level of pralidoxime (bpl) and clinical outcomes in op poisoned patients treated with intermittent dosing and patients treated with continuous infusion. methods: this was a prospective, open labelled, ...

abstract        background and objective: measurement of amino acids is an important tool for metabolic studies and evaluation of patients’ clinical condition. the aim of this study was to analyze the plasma amino acids using reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography techniques (rp-hplc) with pre-column derivatization by o-phthalaldehyde (opa) in combination with 3- mercaptopropionic...

there are many problems in the treatment of hypertension, so we use alternative medicine to achieve better results to solve these problems. in this article we describe a hypertensive patient resisted to conventional drugs and she had some other somatic and psychotic symptoms and was treated by homeopathy, a method of alternative medicine.

results mycoflora profiles of fresh and stored rice grains showed that aspergillus species (37.3%, 40.7%) were the predominant fungal agents, followed by fusarium (21.6%, 16.2%), mucor (19.6%, 16.7%) and rhizopus (9.8%, 11.1%), respectively. in hplc analysis, most of the rice samples (96.7%) collected were found to be positive for fb1 with mean levels ranging from not detected to 56.2 mg/kg for...

this study aimed to construct the hydrate three-phase equilibrium curves for two typical iranian gas reservoir samples using a high-pressure visual cell. to do so, complete analysis of the reservoir fluids was obtained by different techniques of composition analysis i.e. gas chromatography (gc) and detailed hydrocarbon analysis (dha). using high-pressure visual cell the hydrate phase equilibriu...

background: this study investigated blackberry (persian mulberry) effects on apo a-i, apo b, high-sensitivity-c-reactive protein (hs-crp), and systolic blood pressure (sbp) and diastolic blood pressure (dbp) in dyslipidemic patients. materials and methods: in this 8-week randomized clinical trial, 72 dyslipidemic patients were randomly divided into two groups: intervention (300 ml/day blackberr...

conclusions although the results obtained with the use of different methods show an excellent correlation, when one particular sample is tested by different assays, the results are significantly different. it can be concluded that the national standardization program of hba1c measurement is necessary. background hemoglobin a1c (hba1c) testing devices are widely used to evaluate glycemic control...
