Background and purpose: Despite numerous advances in diagnosis and treatment of diseases, complaints against doctors and medical assistants are increasing.The aim of this study was to investigate the complaints of patients against orthopedic surgeons in Mazandaran province, Iran.Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was done on the complai
Spatial orientation in Japanese quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica).
Finding a given location can be based on a variety of strategies, for example on the estimation of spatial relations between landmarks, called spatial orientation.In galliform birds, spatial orientation has been demonstrated convincingly in very young domestic chicks.We wanted to know whether adult Japanese quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica) witho
Cancer: Some genetic considerations
Malignant transformation of normal cells to cancer cells represents an enigmatic phenomenon because of the many ambiguous controversies embodied within most of its aspects.Within a clinical context, cancer, with very few exceptions, is a dreadful disease that ends lethally.Within a biological context, however, cancer is a peculiar biosystem that ha
Efficiency droop suppression of distance-engineered surface plasmon-coupled photoluminescence in GaN-based quantum well LEDs
Ag coated microgroove with extreme large beetroot birkenstock aspect-ratio of 500:1 was fabricated on p-GaN capping layer to investigate the coupling behavior between quantum wells and surface plasmon in highly spatial resolution.Significant photoluminescence enhancement was observed when the distance between Ag film and QWs was reduced from 220 nm
