abstract   introduction: balance is one of the most important contexts in ageing. improving balance in middle age can prevent falling down in elderly which impose the financial and mental costs to society. imbalance between dominant and non-dominant leg can lead to some problems. that’s way; studying effects of similar exercise on dominant and non-dominant legs of body can prevent problems caus...

the development and widespread use of a prophylactic vaccine significantly reduced the incidence of poliomyelitis. at present we more commonly encounter with poliomyelitis sequelae especially in developing countries. we evaluate the results of a modified innominate osteotomy for leg length discrepancy in poliomyelitis. instead of triangular bone graft as in salter’s innominate osteotomy , a tra...

conclusions the frequency of rls among our patients was remarkable and we conclude that all patients who are undergoing hemodialysis should be screened for rls, which can assist in providing proper attention and treatment. results according to our results, 54.5% of patients were diagnosed with rls, and of those 65.2% and 42.9% were women and men, respectively. rls is seen more often among patie...

a total of 150 day old female chickens (ross 308) were randomly allocated to 2 groups with 5 replicate and 15 chicks in each replicate to determine the effects of cold induced ascites on performance, antioxidant status, blood enzyme activities and bone metabolism. the two experimental treatments were: 1) chicks that reared under normal temperature (nt) and 2) chicks that reared under cold tempe...

granular cell tumor is a rare benign neoplasm most commonly appears in the head and neck region, especially in the tongue, cheek mucosa, and palate. occurrence in limbs is even rarer. these tumors account for approximately 0.5% of all soft tissue tumors. granular cell tumor can also affect other organs including skin, breast, and lungs. local recurrence and metastasis is potentially higher in m...

background: despite some successful dynamic simulation of self-impact double pendulum (sidp)-as humanoid robots legs or arms- studies, there is limited information available about the control of one leg locomotion. objective   : the main goal of this research is to improve the reliability of the mammalians leg locomotion and building more elaborated models close to the natural movements, by mod...

conclusions lavender oil massage was effective to improve rls in hemodialysis patients. it has no adverse effects, is practical and cost-effective. it is suggested to be used along with routine treatment of rls in hemodialysis patients. results the mean rls scores were not significantly different in the two groups at the start of study (22.41 ± 7.67 vs. 22.90 ± 4.38, p = 0.76). at the end of st...
