Human functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) brain networks have a complex topology comprising integrative components, e.g. long-distance inter-modular edges, that are theoretically associated with higher biological cost. Here, we estimated intra-modular degree, inter-modular degree and connection distance for each of 285 cortical nodes in multi-echo fMRI data from 38 healthy adults. We u...

Distance learning programs are proving to be very popular for advancing nursing education from both a continuing education and academic degree perspective. Whether one is exploring opportunities to maintain perianesthesia certification or to pursue an advanced academic degree, distance learning technologies offer many feasible options. The following article provides prospective distance learnin...

introduction: the aim of this study was to in-vestigate the effect of irradiation duration and distance of light tip to prepared samples in two different light curing unites on the degree of conversion of resin composite. materials and methods: conventional halogen and blue light emitting diode (led) units were used for polymerization of an opalis resin com-posite. the conversion measurements w...

introduction: ordered subset expectation maximization (osem), is an effective iterative method for spect image reconstruction. the aim of this study is the evaluation of the role of system matrix in osem image reconstruction method using four different physical beam radiation models with three detection configurations. methods: spect was done with an arc of 180 degree in 32 projections after i...

In prokaryotes, genomic distance is a feature that in addition to coregulation affects coexpression. Several observations, such as genomic clustering of highly coexpressed small regulons, support the idea that coexpression behavior of coregulated genes is affected by the distance between the coregulated genes. However, the specific contribution of distance in addition to coregulation in determi...
