objective: to evaluate the adnexal masses with conventional gray scale and color doppler flow imaging and to assess their diagnostic reliability to differentiate benign and malignant adnexal masses. materials and methods: we evaluated 30 patients with adnexal mass. morphological characterization of the mass was done using sassone score. color doppler parameters noted down in each patient and ca...

Despite progresses in the last decades in the comprehension of specificity, the core questions of how it is encoded in the grammar and how it determines the syntax/semantics interplay remain open. This paper describes a new perspective for tackling these questions based on a fine grained syntax/semantics for noun phrases. The proposed format should be able to account for the variety of specific...

backgroundandobjectives:rapidandaccuratedetectionofmethicillinresistantstaphylococcus aureus (mrsa) is an important role of clinical microbiology laboratories to avoid treatment failure. the aim of this study was to compare conventional methods against the e-test minimum inhibitory concentration (mic) method to determine the best phenotypic method. materials and methods: methicillin resistance...

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Various measurement devices are available for detection of halitosis. For epidemiologic studies, it is necessary to use a portable and small device. This study aimed to investigation of correlation between measuring the device (Etiquette checker) with Halimeter. METHODS: One hundred volunteers (students and patients) participated in this study. The amount of volatile sulfur ...

background: as delay in diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy is directly associated with increasing mortality, it studying the high sensitivity and specificity of transvaginal color doppler sonography as the most preferred imaging method with the most accurate and rapid diagnosis results seems to be necessary. therefore, this study aims to evaluate the diagnostic value of transvaginal color doppler s...
