BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Children who experience bullying, a type of peer victimization, show worse mental and physical health cross-sectionally. Few studies have assessed these relationships longitudinally. We examined longitudinal associations of bullying with mental and physical health from elementary to high school, comparing effects of different bullying histories. METHODS We analyzed d...

The most common isotope, plutonium-239, is produced when the most common isotope of uranium, uranium-238, absorbs a neutron and then quickly decays to plutonium. It is this plutonium isotope that is most useful in making nuclear weapons, and it is produced in varying quantities in virtually all operating nuclear reactors. As fuel in a reactor is exposed to longer and longer periods of neutron i...

straightforward in terms of good manufacturing practice requirements than are wet granulation and dry compaction, the pharmaceutical industry is focusing increasingly on this process. Although coarse microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) grade 12 offers outstanding flow properties, the most commonly used grade for direct compression is the well-known fine grade 102. The reason for this preference is...

In this study, optical and thermal properties of normal grade and winter grade palm oil biodiesel were investigated. Surface Plasmon Resonance and Photopyroelectric technique were used to evaluate the samples. The dispersion curve and thermal diffusivity were obtained. Consequently, the variation of refractive index, as a function of wavelength in normal grade biodiesel is faster than winter gr...

The relationship between the trend of a sequence of related outcomes and judged assessments of fairness of those outcomes was studied in the context of an educational framework. Specifically, a short course was modeled as a controlled experiment, in which participants completed several “assignments” and, a “final”, for which they received an overall “course grade”. After the course grade was re...

The article was first report a case of a 32-year-old female with NPC that is G6PD-deficient. The patient completed induction chemotherapy and concomitant chemoradiotherapy successfully. The patient experienced grade 1 neutropenia , grade 1 diarrhea, and grade 2 acne-like skin reactions during the three cycles of  induction chemotherapy. Grade 1 neutropenia, grade 1 diarrhea, grade 2 oral mucosi...

objective: transitional cell carcinoma (tcc) of the urinary bladder is the second common cancer of the genitourinary tract. several parameters such as clinical and pathological parameters, molecular factors, and etc play a role in determination of prognosis and type of treatment. in this research study, the relationship between grade and mdm2 oncoprotein overexpression in tcc of bladder was eva...
