the clinical and phenotypic features of two siblings (a 12 years old girl and her 7 year old brother) with cockayne syndrome are described. the main problems were mild to moderate mental retardation, dwarfism, clumsy gait, photosensitive skin lesions and progeroid (senile like) appearance. brain ct - scans revealed symmetrical, well defined areas of calcification mainly located at lenticular nu...

purpose : we describe clinical and radiologic findings and surgical outcome of an orbital dermoid cyst located in the superior oblique muscle tendon. this unusual location for dermoid tumors has not been reported previously. case report : a 15-year-old girl referred to us with an orbital mass in superonasal quadrant of the left orbit reportedly to be present from birth. computed tomography reve...

obesity with an increasing prevalence rate worldwide is correlated with multiple comorbidities. unfortunately, the currently available therapies such as the pharmacotherapy, bariatric surgery or gene-transfer technology are associated with a number of disadvantages including undesirable side effects, poor compliance or transient effectiveness. therefore, modifications of the lifestyle factors m...

It will continue to do so on their growing as elderly with negative impacts on communal relations and unjust distribution of resources based on a gender basis that will affect the aging in place (AiP). The study aims to investigate the AiP within aged people and modify...

We used QCD factorization for the hadronic matrix elements to show that the existing data, in particular the branching ratios BR ( ?J/?K) and BR ( ?J/??), can be accounted for this approach. We analyzed the decay within the framework of QCD factorization. We have complete calculation of the relevant hard-scattering kernels for twist-2 and twist-3. We calculated this decays in a special scale ...
