Abstract: Copper is a heavy metal pollutant which causes chronic sublethal effects on living organisms. Several techniques, such as reverse osmosis and solvent extraction have been followed to remove heavy metal ions from both synthetic and natural effluents, with most attention now given to adsorption techniques employing low-cost adsorbents. This paper reports on the use of powdered leaves of Azadirachta indica, treated by heating at 50C with a mixture of aqueous formaldehyde and dilute sulfuric acid for 2 h, followed by filtering and washing the residue with water until a pH of 4 was attained, and then air drying. Tests with the adsorbent so obtained indicated that it adsorbed Cu from solution effectively and in a pH dependent manner. In the pH range tested (0.95-4.41) Cu adsorption showed 2 peaks, at pH 1.51 and 2.51, at which adsorption was 72-76%; above pH 5.2, Cu forms a gelatinous precipitate. Cu could be recovered from the adsorbent using 1:1 sulfuric or hydrochloric acids, which gave 31.5 and 33.2 % recovery, respectively.

Abstract: Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) in bipolar disorder (BPD). Methods: Clinical trials on the treatment of BPD with ECT were systematically reviewed. A comprehensive search of MEDLINE, PsycINFO, and ISI Web of Science databases was conducted in March 2010. Results: A total of 51 articles met our selection criteria. Only 3 controlled or comparative prospective trials addressed the treatment of mania with ECT. In these studies, which had small samples, ECT was superior to simulated ECT, lithium, or the combination of lithium and haloperidol. We did not find any controlled or comparative prospective trial on the efficacy of ECT in bipolar depression. In the 4 retrospective studies that compared ECT with antidepressants, no difference was observed between them. In 9 of 10 trials that compared bipolar with unipolar depressed patients, ECT was equally efficacious for both groups of patients. of the 6 studies of patients with BPD that performed a comparison between pre-ECT versus post-ECT, only 1 study showed a worsening in cognition after the treatment. Conclusions: There are no studies with adequate methodology on the treatment of BPD with ECT. The lack of scientific evidence contrasts with broad anecdotal clinical experience that suggests that ECT is an important tool in the treatment of BPD, especially in more severe or refractory cases. The marked stigma associated with ECT and the lack of large financial support may account for the paucity of ECT research.

Abstract: This study describes and evaluates key bibliometric patterns in the articles published by the former Journal ofEducation for Librarianship (JEL) during its first 24 volumes of existence from 1960 to 1984. Data from each issue of JEL were collected and analyzed using SPSSx. Since JEL became a refereed journal beginning with volume 12 in 1971, its scholarliness has increased dramatically — at least insofar as a quantitative indicator reveals. Before 1971 Just over half of all articles contained bibliographic citations. Afterwards, this proportion grew steadily, and in the 1980s nine out often articles were referenced. The number of citations per referenced article has also increased steadily, from eight before refereeing to 17 in the 1980s.

Abstract: In order to explore the status of library and information science research and its subject trends in Iran, after the introduction of modern librianship and library education to the country in 1966, the total scientific production (2,490 titles) was surveyed and analyzed employing bibliometrics. The findings indidcate that most contribution to the scientific production of the field are papers, theses, and research reports respectively. The highest subject priority for paper belongs to the “libraries and resource centers,” and for research reports to “bibliographies.” The growth rate for papers, theses, and research reports - except in very few cases - is not as consistent.
