Influence of an applied electric field on the electronic properties of Si delta-doped GaAs
(E D P SCIENCES, 2003)
We have theoretically studied the electronic structure of Si delta-doped GaAs inserted into an infinite quantum well as dependent on the applied electric field. For the uniform distribution we have investigated the influence ...
Sleep quality among relatively younger patients with initial diagnosis of hypertension: Dippers versus non-dippers
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2007)
Background. Sleep is a basic physiological process. Normal sleep yields decrease in sympathetic activity, blood pressure ( BP) and heart rate. Those, who do not have expected decrease in their BP are considered "non-dippers''. ...
Synthesis and characterization of dextran hydrogels prepared with chlor- and nitrogen-containing crosslinkers
(JOHN WILEY & SONS INC, 2006)
In this study, we have synthesized dextran hydrogels by the crosslinking reactions of dextran with some selective Cl-, and N-containing functional monomers, such as epichlorohydrin (ECH), N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide (MBAm), ...
Orbital lymphangioma and its association with intracranial venous angioma
(CARFAX PUBLISHING, 2004)
Orbital lymphangioma is an uncommon, benign cystic lesion, generally manifest in childhood. It usually presents with a slowly progressive proptosis, displacement of the globe, ptosis and restriction of eye movements. ...
Short QT syndrome: a very rare arrhythmogenic entity
(ACTA CARDIOLOGICA, 2008)
Short QT syndrome (SQTS) is a gene-related arrhythmogenic syndrome harbouring a large spectrum of symptoms ranging from mild palpitations to sudden cardiac death. The mutation of genes (KCNH2, KCNQ1, and KCNJ2) encoding ...
Seroprevalence of Toxocara antibodies in patients with adult asthma
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2006)
Toxocariasis is a common worldwide infection. Asthma, considered to be one of the most common chronic diseases, is a serious global health problem. Toxocara may be a possible etiologic agent of asthma. The aim of this study ...
The view of patients with asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) on complementary and alternative medicine
(ELSEVIER DOYMA SL, 2008)
Background: The popularity of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), particularly for chronic diseases such as asthma, is growing rapidly, but little is known about the characteristics of CAM use by patients with ...
Evaluation of the p53 tumor suppressor gene mutation in normal rat salivary gland tissue after radioiodine application: An experimental study
(HEALTH COMMUNICATIONS INC, 2006)
In this experimental study, investigators explored p53 tumor suppressor gene mutation induced by low and high doses of iodine-131 sodium iodide (I-131) in salivary gland tissue in rats. Group 1 consisted of 10 rats; low ...
A short term study of the additive effect of timolol and brimonidine on intraocular pressure
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2002)
Purpose To evaluate the additive ocular hypotensive effect of the combination of brimonidine and timolol on intraocular pressure (IOP) reduction in patients with glaucoma. Methods This was a prospective, randomized, ...
Histopathological changes in ovary and endometrium after tubal ligation: a rat model
(BLACKWELL MUNKSGAARD, 2003)
Background. To evaluate the histopathological effects of tubal ligation on ovary and endometrium in a rat model. Methods. Twenty-four female Wistar albino rats weighing 220-260 g were used. The rats were assigned randomly ...
