1.1. Motivation. Let E be an elliptic curve over a p-adic integer ring R, and assume that E has supersingular reduction. Consider the 2-dimensional Fp-vector space of characteristic-0 geometric p-torsion points in the associated 1-parameter formal group Ê over R. It makes sense to ask if, in this vector space, there is a line whose points x are nearer to the origin than are all other points (wi...

Co-infection of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and neurosyphilis (NS) has become a rising trend, but the extent of brain damage associated with the concomitant infections remains unknown. Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy ((1)H-MRS) can evaluate metabolic changes underlying early brain infections. 25 syphilitic patients (7 HIV-positive with NS; 6 HIV-positive without NS; 5 HIV-negative...

In [Oz], Ozawa obtained analogues of the Kurosh subgroup theorem (and its consequences) in the setting of free products of semiexact II1 factors with respect to the canonical tracial states. In particular he was able to prove a certain unique-factorization theorem that distinquishes, for example, the n-various L(F∞) ∗ (L(F∞)⊗ R) . The paper was a continuation of the joint work [OP] with Popa th...

a subgroup $h$ is said to be $nc$-supplemented in a group $g$ if there exists a subgroup $kleq g$ such that $hklhd g$ and $hcap k$ is contained in $h_{g}$, the core of $h$ in $g$. we characterize the supersolubility of finite groups $g$ with that every maximal subgroup of the sylow subgroups is $nc$-supplemented in $g$.

suppose that $h$ is a subgroup of $g$‎, ‎then $h$ is said to be‎ ‎$s$-permutable in $g$‎, ‎if $h$ permutes with every sylow subgroup of‎ ‎$g$‎. ‎if $hp=ph$ hold for every sylow subgroup $p$ of $g$ with $(|p|‎, ‎|h|)=1$)‎, ‎then $h$ is called an $s$-semipermutable subgroup of $g$‎. ‎in this paper‎, ‎we say that $h$ is partially $s$-embedded in $g$ if‎ ‎$g$ has a normal subgroup $t$ such that $ht...

OBJECTIVES This study sought to assess the long-term predictive power of depressed baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) among post-myocardial infarction (MI) patients with preserved left ventricular function. BACKGROUND Risk stratification after MI is primarily performed by identifying patients with depressed left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) because of their greater mortality. Autonomic mark...

There are conflicting reports regarding circadian variation in the onset of acute myocardial infarction (MI) among patients with diabetes. We therefore, studied the circadian pattern of the incidence of acute MI in patients (n = 3,882) who were enrolled in the Onset Study stratified by the presence, type, and duration of diabetes. The Onset Study was conducted at 64 U.S. medical centers between...

A 155-item psychological questionnaire was given to 330 multiphasic examinees who subsequently developed a well-documented first myocardial infarction (MI). Two age-sex-racematched control groups remaining free of MI were selected from multiphasic examinees; one group was additionally matched to the cases for standard coronary risk factors. Responses to several questionnaire items were associat...

Accumulated creatine kinase MB isoenzyme release (sigma CK-MB) during acute myocardial infarction was correlated with biplane left ventricular (LV) angiographic estimates of percent abnormally contracting segment (%ACS) and ejection fraction (EF) in 35 patients who underwent diagnostic angiography at a mean of 33 +/- 4 days post myocardial infarction (MI). Of the 35 patients, 18 had no evidence...
