To determine if repeat and near analysis is sensitive to the geocoding algorithm used for underlying crime incident data. The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department provided 2016 data five types: (1) shootings, (2) robberies, (3) residential burglaries, (4) theft of automobiles, (5) from automobiles. were geocoded using a dual ranges composite algorithm. First, descriptive distances betwee...

Degenerate primers-based polymerase chain reaction (PCR) are commonly used for isolation of unidentified gene sequences in related organisms. For designing the degenerate primers, we propose the use of local alignment search method for searching the conserved regions long enough to design an acceptable primer pair. To test this method, a WD40 repeat-containing domain protein from Beauveria bass...

Background & Objective: Accurate and timely reporting of critical values is an important issue. There is some doubt whether repeat testing of critical values would offer any advantage over single testing or not. The aim of this study was evaluation of utility of routine repeat testing of critical values in our referral center and to compare probable variations in different work...

cerebrovascular attack (cva) and transient ischemic attack (tia) are major causes of emergency department visits around the globe. a significant number of these patients may experience repeat attacks if left untreated. several risk stratifying scoring systems have been developed in recent years to point out the high risk patients. abcd 2 is based on age, blood pressure, clinical status, diabete...

The present study was undertaken to examine the efficacy of a treatment regime using a controlled internal drug release (CIDR) device in conjunction with injections of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) and prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) on conception rate of repeat-breeding Iraqi buffaloes. Data were collected from 100 buffaloeswith repeat breeding in Ninevehprovince housed at six private dairy ...

Background: The rejected films in radiography may be responsible for an unnecessary increase in the radiation dose to the population. The effective dose to population is a very important factor in estimation of stochastic risk in radiology. The main goal of this study was to determine the effective dose to members of the public due to rejected films in diagnostic radiology departments in the No...

this study aimed to investigate the contribution of four common dfnb (“dfn” for deafness and “b” for autosomal resessive locus) loci and gjb2 gene mutations (exon 2) in hearing impairment in individuals living in markazi and qom provinces of iran. forty consanguineous iranian families with at least three affected individuals in family or pedigree who suffer from an autosomal recessive non-syndr...

Tandem repeats (TRs) represent one of the most prevalent features of genomic sequences. Due to their abundance and functional significance, a plethora of detection tools has been devised over the last two decades. Despite the longstanding interest, TR detection is still not resolved. Our large-scale tests reveal that current detectors produce different, often nonoverlapping inferences, reflecti...

aim : in this study, genetic polymorphism of two trna-liked short tandem repeat (str)-containing loci, r-r and s-q, was analyzed in order to clarify further the genotypic differences among e. dispar isolates. background : entamoeba dispar is closely related to the human pathogen e. histolytica , the agent of amebic dysentery and amebic liver abscesses. e. dispar is, to some extent, capable of p...
