objective(s):some pathologic situations such as diabetes and metabolic syndrome are associated with alternation in nitric oxide level. incidence of these condition increases with aging. on the other hand, insulin secretion is modulated by nitric oxide, and nitric oxide synthase (nos) activity is also altered in diabetes. in this study, modification in the enzyme activity associated with aging a...

We propose a new technique based on program synthesis for automatically generating visualizations from natural language queries. Our method parses the query into refinement type specification using intents-and-slots paradigm and leverages type-directed to generate set of visualization programs that are most likely meet user's intent. system captures useful hints present in allows algorithm reje...

A 54 year old man with history of cardiomyopathy and chronic fibrillation first presented with bloody diarrhea. Then during the assessment of his abnormal lab. data revealed cast nephropathy in renal biopsy, gamma peak in protein electrophoresis and fine lytic lesions in skull graphy. His bone marrow asp...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlations between microcirculation in the optic disc, average peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness cupping parameters, and visual field defects in glaucoma patients with the generalized enlargement disc type. METHODS A total of 38 eyes from 38 glaucoma patients with the generalized enlargement disc type were included....

A 3D-printed resin crown is a novel option for esthetic restoration primary teeth, which are typically bonded with cement. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the bonding ability 3D printing and compare it other indirect materials fabrication. shear bond strengths two materials, Graphy (GP) NextDent (NXT), VIPI Block (VIPI) MAZIC Duro (MZ), were compared in study. For all strength at inte...

Objectives: A well performed vesico-urethral anastomosis (VUA) allows an early catheter removal and cystography is mandatory to exclude urinary extravasation. Aim of the study is to investigate whether transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS) is as reliable as cystography in detecting anastomotic leakage after radical retropubic prostatectomy (RRP) in order to avoid the use of X-rays. Methods: 50 pat...

Time reversal imaging method based on full wave numerical technique for likely breast tumors biological tissue in the Microwave-Induced Thermo-Acoustic Tomography (MITAT) system is discussed. In this paper, the mechanism of microwave-induced thermo-acoustic is strictly described based on thermodynamics and thermo-diffusion principles; the equivalent relationship between the absorbed microwave e...
