the study of design and formation of urban space focuses on interaction of human and environment. this is an attractive subject that considers as interdisciplinary debates. thinkers of urban studies pay attention to this matter empirically and theoretically in order to provide a desirable space for human being. this research is based on the theories of urban studies and urban sociology and so o...

the flower colors in the resulting progenies, while in the second type of cross it is the Ss factors whose segregations determine the flower colors of the families produced. The Ss factors are in linkage group I in which the rubricalyx factor is also included, while the Vv factors are in linkagegroup III. It is clear, therefore, that independence between old-gold and rubricalyx can be observed ...

it is accepted that the visual comfort in schools depends on the quality of the whole visual environment. this leads to the concern upon the quality and quantity of lighting. currently in iran, in order to calculate energy transfer for public buildings a coefficient is usually used. this coefficient considers the rate of sunlight energy absorption in these kinds of buildings. to increase the de...

The focus of human genetics continues to shift toward the dissection of complex phenotypes. Integral to these endeavors is the development of powerful analytical tools. To this end, we propose a novel method designated the haplotype linkage disequibrium (LD) test for identifying diseases genes. The basic structure of the haplotype test statistic is a chi-square in which haplotypes, as opposed t...

Nilsson PM, Nilsson J-Å, Berglund G (University Hospital, Malmö, Sweden). Family burden of cardiovascular mortality: risk implications for offspring in a national register linkage study based upon the Malmö Preventive Project. J Intern Med 2004; 255: 229–235. Objective. To investigate the adjusted relative risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) events in offspring of parents with cardiovascular m...

Computer Aided Geometric Design (CAGD) of surfaces sometimes presents problems that were not envisioned in classical differential geometry. This paper presents mathematical results that pertain to the design of curvature continuous blending surfaces. Curvature continuity across normal continuous surface patches requires that normal curvatures agree along all tangent directions at all points of ...

dermatophytes are a group of keratinophilic fungi capable of invading keratinized tissues (skin, hair and nails). they cause dermatophytosis (commonly known as tinea or ring worm) in human and animals. in this report, dna similarities and genomic linkage of 40 dermatophytes strains was obtained from different universities, were studied by random amplified polymorphic dna (rapd–pcr) using 11 ran...

Plasmodium falciparum malaria episodes may vary considerably in their severity and clinical manifestations. There is good evidence that host genetic factors contribute to this variability. To date, most genetic studies aiming at the identification of these genes have used a case/control study design for severe malaria, exploring specific candidate genes. Here, we performed a family-based geneti...

BACKGROUND The aim of this process evaluation was to provide insight into facilitators and barriers to the delivery of community-based personalized dementia care of two different case management models, i.e. the linkage model and the combined intensive case management/joint agency model. These two emerging dementia care models differ considerably in the way they are organized and implemented. I...
