background: nonmelanoma skin cancer rates are increasing worldwide. mohs micrographic surgery and surgical excision (se) are the two treatment methods for this type of cancer. the current paper aims at determining and comparing the  cost-effectiveness of se and mohs micrographic surgery. materials and methods: the current study has a retrospective cohort design. a number of 630 patients sufferi...

Background: Thalassemia represents a serious health problem in Iran because of its heterogeneous frequency and the existing endogamy system. It is an inherited blood disease characterized by the under production of normal hemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying protein in red blood cells. Materials and Methods: In this study, serum antioxidants including selenium (Se), zinc (Zn) and copper (Cu) were m...

A new gastropod fauna of Burdigalian (early Miocene) age is described from the Iranian part of Makran. The fauna comprises 19 species and represents three distinct assemblages from turbid water coral reef, shallow subtidal soft-bottom and mangrove-fringed mudflat environments in the northern Indian Ocean. Especially the reef-associated assemblage comprises largely new species. This is explained...

In this chapter the results of kinetic studies of the rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation using monodentate phosphoramidite ligands are described. Together with the data obtained by a number of other techniques a mechanism for the Rhcatalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation with MonoPhosTM is proposed. The formation of the catalyst precursor results in a mixture of diastereomeric Rh-complexes w...

An experiment was carried out to evaluate and compare the effects of organic and inorganic selenium (Se) sources on broiler male birds (Ross 308). Uniform broiler male chicks divided in to five groups with six replicates were fed with either normal feed (without supplemental Se, negative control), 0.25 ppm of inorganic Se, 0.5 ppm of inorganic Se, 0.25 ppm of inorganic Se + 0.25 ppm of organic ...
