The effects of wastewater reuse on potato growth properties under greenhouse lysimeteric condition

In this study, raw and treated wastewaters were reused for potato cultivation in order to verify the effect of wastewater on crop yield, crop’s heavy metals’ concentration as well as some major traits of potato. To this regard, a completely randomized test was designed with five water treatments and three replications. The watering were as follows: raw wastewater (T1), treated wastewater (T2), a combination of 50 % raw wastewater and 50 % fresh water (T3), a combination of 50 % treated wastewater and 50 % fresh water (T4), and fresh water (T5). The experiments were run during October 2009–June 2010 in the greenhouse of Bu-Ali Sina University. The results show that the effects of treatments were significant on the length and number of stems per plant (p < 0.05). The number of nodes and weight of tubers, crop yield and heavy metal (cadmium, nickel and lead) concentration in shoots and tubers were also significant (p < 0.01). The results indicated that the highest length of stem (55.44 cm) was obtained in T2 which had no significant differences from that of T1. The maximum and minimum tuber weights and crop yield were obtained in T1 and T5, respectively. Based on crop yield rate, the watering ranked as follows: T1 > T3 > T2 > T4 > T5. The maximum and minimum heavy metal values were observed in T1 and T5, respectively. Based on the cadmium, nickel and lead accumulations in shoots and tubers (except cadmium in shoots), the watering treatments ranked as: T1 > T3 > T2 > T4 > T5

The effects of low level laser therapy (Ga- Al- As) on myofascial pain dysfunction syndrome

Muscular pain is one of the most common causes for facial pain. Myofacial pain dysfunction&quot;nsyndrome (MPDS) is one of the most important disorders of facial area that affected patients suffer from&quot;npain, tenderness of one or more masticatory muscles and limitation of movements. Lack of specific and&quot;neffective therapeutic method, makes it necessary to find a treatment to decrease pain. Considering the&quot;nanalgesic and anti- inflammatory effects of low-level laser, some investigators have recommended it for&quot;nMPDS patient&apos;s treatment. In this study, the effects of low level laser (Ga-Al-As) on MPDS patients&quot;nreferred to dental faculty of Tehran University of Medical Sciences, were investigated. Twenty- two&quot;nMPDS patents, with mean age 33.32 years, were treated for 4 weeks (12 visits). Clinical examinations&quot;nwere performed in 6 stages. The results of this study showed that variables such as pain severity, cheek&quot;npain, pain frequency and tenderness of masseter, temporal, internal and external pterygoid muscles, had a&quot;nstatistically significant improvement at the end of treatment with low level laser (GA-A1-AS) which&quot;nlasted for three months, (follow- up period). Results of this study showed that, low-level laser therapy&quot;nhas a sedative effect on the pain and tenderness of masticatory muscles in MPDS. Patients and having an&quot;naccurate and regular program to complete treatment period, has an important role in MPDS&quot;nimprovement
