To describe our Ilizarov technique for the treatment of acquired equinus deformity in children and to determine if compliance with continuous use of an ankle foot orthosis (after removal of the fixator and until skeletal maturity) can influence the severity of recurrence. A cohort of 26 children with post-traumatic or post-burn contractures producing an equinus deformity was followed up for a m...

The broad range of digital disruption has become ubiquitous to organizations in the light movement restrictions imposed curb global pandemic Covid-19. Digital interaction became numerous modes communication urban societies worldwide. evolution technology been rampant worldwide, but adaptation was slower Malaysia compared neighboring southeast Asian countries, pre-covid-19. brought about a force...

NDR1/2 kinase is essential in dendrite morphology and spine formation, which is regulated by cellular Ca2+. Lead (Pb) is a potent blocker of L-type calcium channel and our recent work showed Pb exposure impairs dendritic spine outgrowth in hippocampal neurons in rats. But the sensitivity of Pb-induced spine maturity with mixed factors (gender×age×brain regions) remains unknown. This study aimed...

In present investigation, the seeds of Helianthus annuus L. variety Modern were treated with nine different concentrations (0.05%, 0.25%, 0.50%, 0.75%, 1.00%, 1.25%, 1.50%, 1.75% and 2.00%) of caffeine to raise the M1 generation and the effect of caffeine on seedling height on 30 th day of sowing, mature plant height, days to maturity and yield parameters was observed. Generally, the lower dose...

introduction: breathing rehabilitation techniques are designed to reduce symptoms, decrease disability, increase participation in physical and social activities, and improve the overall quality of life for individuals with chronic respiratory disease. however, the role of these techniques remains unclear. this study examined the effects of pursed-lip breathing (plb) education on the respiratory...

in order to investigate effect of deficit irrigation on phenological stages and yield of soybean cultivars, an experiment was conducted as split plots based on randomized complete block design with three replications at agricultural research farm, university of guilan in 2009. main factor was included four irrigation levels based on potential moisture 30-35 (i1), 50-55 (i2), 70-75 (i3) centibar...

Objective: Although, earlier studies have evaluated the significance of various estradiol patterns during controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH), their prognostic significance remains unclear. The objective of this study is to investigate the rate of increase in estradiol (ROI-E2) during COH and evaluate it as a predictor of ovarian response. Materials and Methods: In this retrospective stud...
