background : gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (gtn) disease is excessive and inappropriate proliferation of trophoblast after termination of the pregnancy. many attempts have been made to improve follow-up procedures, but no studies have evaluated human chorionic gonadotrophin (hcg) as a post treatment indicator. thus we aimed to know β-hcg variability in post treatment pregnancies.   method...

Single-breath carbon monoxide diffusing capacity (Dsb) was measured before and during immersion of one hand in ice water (cold pressor test) in the following three groups of subjects: (1) normal subjects; (2) patients with isolated Raynaud's disease; and (3) patients with Raynaud's phenomenon and progressive systemic sclerosis. No change in Dsb was found in normal subjects or patients with prog...

One hundred and twenty five patients with polycystic ovaries on ultrasonography and 17 controls with normal ovaries on ultrasound and regular ovulary cycles underwent clinical and endocrine evaluation. Of 125 ultrasound-diagnosed polycystic ovary patients (PCO) 49.6% complained about hirsutism, 55.2% had menstrual disturbances (46.4% oligomenorrhea, 8.8% amenorrhea), 23.2% had normal but irregu...

providing service for patients in a rapid and efficient manner is one of the main issues in concern to emergency department (ed). due to the imbalance between needs and the capacity of providing service, ed faces an emergency situation. in this paper, through the use of information gathered from related literature, an expert system (es) has been designed in order to detect ed crowding and overc...

fab (french – american- british) group determined a diagnostic classification for leukemia's. but in spite of some reports on different clinical findings and prognosis of hmc and lgl there is no place for hand- mirror cell leukemia and lgl leukemia in this classification. on the other hand, there are different ideas about causes of hand mirror cell and about different changes of large granlar l...

In this paper, we investigate relation between weak subdifferential and augmented normal cone. We define augmented normal cone via weak subdifferential and vice versa. The necessary conditions for the global maximum are also stated. We produce preliminary properties of augmented normal cones and discuss them via the distance function. Then we obtain the augmented normal cone for the indicator f...
