Background. Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterized by motor and non-motor symptoms that affect patients’ functional performances, especially while performing dual tasks which is a critical factor in connection with everyday living. There are many controversies about the benefits. Objectives. This study assessed the efficacy of motor and cognitive dual-task training programs for improving of ...

The Pseudo Primal-Dual Algorithm solves the pure integer programming problem in two stages, systematically violating and restoring dual feasibility while maintaining an all-integer matrix. The algorithm is related to Gomory AlI-fnteger Algorithm and the Young Primal Integer Programming Algorithm, differing from the former in the dual feasible stage by the choice of cuts and pivot variable, and ...

Highly soluble oxalic acid complexes (OACs) were synthesized through a one-pot reaction. The OACs exhibit excellent performance as draw solutes in FO processes with high water fluxes and negligible reverse solute fluxes. Efficient protein enrichment was achieved. The diluted OACs can be recycled via nanofiltration and are promising as draw solutes.

Mesoporous templated MCM-48 silica was prepared using a C16 surfactant as template. The MCM-48 powders and thin films were characterized by different techniques. Two types of porous supports were used, namely macroporous α-alumina and silicon microsieves. The supported MCM-48 layers were applied as liquid permeable membranes in pressure-driven nanofiltration and electric field-mediated ion tran...

esophageal squamous cell carcinoma is a rather common cancer in northern iran. incidence of adenocarcinoma of esophagus has an increasing trend in iran. co-existence of both cancers in one patient is very rare. we report a middle age woman from northern iran with a typical presentation of esophageal cancer, who was found to have a dual esophageal cancer. the disease was found in the advanced st...

1. Introduction One of the scientific challenges in nanofiltration is to develop nanofilters with both high ion permeability and selectivity, which are often considered as antagonist features. Today, the number of solid state membranes that are readily useable is limited and their performances, i.e. ion permeability and selectivity, are restricted. New materials for nanofiltration are thus clea...
