background: behçet’s disease (bd) is a multisystemic inflammatory vasculitis of unknown etiology, and vasculitis being its major pathological feature. objectives: we studied the prevalence of microembolic signals (mes) in patients with diagnosis behçet's disease. we also tried to determine the frequency of mes in bd patients with or without neurological involvement. materials and methods: ...

A . Uniform sequential continuity, a property classically equivalent to uniform continuity on compact sets, is shown, constructively, to be a consequence of strong continuity on a metric space. It is then shown that in the case of a separable metric space, in order to omit the word sequential from this result, it is necessary and sufficient to adopt a principle (BD-N) that is independent of Hey...

This study aimed to produce omega-3-emriched broiler meat by using ultrasonicated flaxseed oil nanoemulsions coated with whey protein-sodium alginate. Three hundred 1-d-old (Ross, 308) male broiler chicks were allocated randomly to 5 experimental treatments with 4 replicate pens. Experimental treatments included basal diet (BD), basal diet plus flaxseed oil (BD+FO, 1 mL/kg/BW), basal diet plus ...

conclusions the present study suggests a beneficial effect of vitamin c adsministration on post-transplant function of the liver from bd liver donors. results no significant differences were observed in mrna expression ratio of il1b and il10 between two groups. despite an acceptable decrease in serum concentration of the inflammatory markers il1b and il10 at time point 2 minus time point 1 (t2-...

does not satisfy (EP), because for x = 0.3, y = 0.5 and z = 0.5 we get I (x, I (y, z)) = 0.7 = 0.5 = I (y, I (x, z)). The corrected last two rows are provided in Table 1 here. In both of these cases the natural negation NI is the classical negation NC(x) = 1 − x. One can easily check that the first function satisfies (I1) and it does not satisfy (EP), because for x = 0.3, y = 1 and z = 0, we ge...

In this work we solve an open problem of U.Höhle [Problem 11, Fuzzy Sets and Systems 145 (2004) 471-479]. We show that the solution gives a characterization of all conditionally cancellative t-subnorms. Further, we give an equivalence condition for a conditionally cancellativite t-subnorm to be a t-norm and hence show that conditionally cancellativite t-subnorms whose natural negations are stro...

A ten-week experiment was conducted to study the effect of a nanostructure of phytic acid absorber (NPAA) on the performance and protein digestibility in laying hens. A total of 100 Bovans laying hens were randomly assigned to 5 treatments, with 4 replicates, 5 hens each. The experiment was a completely randomized design with 5 levels of NPAA; including zero (T1, as a basal diet (BD)); T2 (BD+ ...

BACKGROUND Predominant polarity characterises patients who mainly manifest recurrences of depression or mania/hypomania. Alcohol use disorder (AUD) and polysubstance use (PSU), which often complicate bipolar disorder (BD) and affect its clinical course, can influence predominant polarity. Nevertheless, previous studies have not clarified if BD patients differ in predominant polarity from BD pat...

background: this study was designed to determine and compare the stress, anxiety and depression levels in behcet’s disease (bd) patients and a control group of normal individuals. materials and methods: one-hundred and six patients with bd were selected as cases and controls were 106 age- and sex-matched participants referred to the shiraz dental school clinics due to dental problems. we collec...
