since work-related musculoskeletal disorders (wmsds) have a high prevalence in different industries, in order to quantify the prevalence of wmsds of the upper limbs in of exposed group and find a relationship between exposure indices and effect indicators, this research was carried out. a total of 404 male exposed and of 120 male non-exposed workers of qaemshahre (northern iran) weaving factory...

cludes an elucidation of the common surgical conditions in that area, indications for operation, discussion of prognosis, and an excellent section answering those questions most frequently asked by patients. While intended primarily for the lay public, this book obviously is of value to anyone dealing with patients. It might also, in a general way and by bringing together loose ends, be of valu...

Recent trends in the studies of lepton physics are reviewed, with the focus on results from e + e ? colliders. Areas where progress can be made in the next decade are discussed.

The determination of chemical abundances from stellar spectra is considered a mature field of astrophysics. Digital spectra of stars are recorded and processed with standard techniques, much like samples in the biological sciences. Nevertheless, uncertainties typically exceed 20%, and are dominated by systematic errors. The first part of this paper addresses what is being done to reduce measure...
