Body stalk anomaly is a rare and severe malformation syndrome in which the exact pathophysiology and trigger factors are still unknown. Possible causes of body stalk anomaly include early amnion rupture with direct mechanical pressure and amniotic bands, vascular disruption of the early embryo, or an abnormality in the germinal disk. We present a case of body stalk anomaly diagnosed during ante...

safflower is a strategic plant regarding to its valuable nutrition value (45% extractable oil) and industrial uses. due to massive import of edible oil to the country as well as high potential for safflower cultivation, the research on production of safflower for oil extrusion purpose is of remarkable importance. the design of various processing and oil extraction units and also their optimizat...

Tendon rupture in dogs is generally the result of a direct trauma. This report described the use of adjacent muscle autogenic fascial graft for reconstruction of distal rupture of long digital extensor tendon in a dog. A two-year-old male mix breed dog, was presented with a non-weight bearing lameness of the right hind limb and a deep rupture of lateral side of right tarsus. History taking reve...

in this work we solve the set of hydrodynamical equations for accretion disks in the spherical coordinates (r,θ,ϕ) to obtain the explicit structure along θ direction. we study a two-dimensional advective accretion disc in the presence of thermal conduction. we find self-similar solutions for an axisymmetric, rotating, steady, viscous-resistive disk. we show that the global structure of an advec...

objectives: to compare the outcomes of prone and supine lumbar traction in patients with chronic discogenic low back pain. methods: the test was prospective and randomized control trial. the structure of trial was urban physical medicine and rehabilitation clinic. participants was included of a total of 124 subjects with chronic low back pain (lbp) and evidence of a degenerative and/or herniate...

background and objective: methicillin resistance in staphylococcus aureus is an increasingly important clinical problem. a chromosomal gene, meca, mediates resistance to penicillinase-resistant penicillins such as methicillin and oxacillin in staphylococcus aureus. we evaluated the validity of disk diffusion test by using oxacillin, methicillin and cefoxitin disks with consideration of the pres...

conclusions altogether, ozone had significant positive effects on patients with disk herniation unresponsive to other conservative and minimally invasive treatments. background disk herniation (dh) is one of the most common disk lesions, inducing low back pain (lbp). various therapeutic options have been proposed for treatment of disk herniation (dh). intradiscal injection of ozone has been sug...
