Ethoxyquin phosphate (EQ-P) and ethoxyquin hydrochloride (EQ-HCl) were synthesized and studied for genotoxic and antioxidant activities with the use of comet assay and micronucleus test performed on human lymphocytes. The results were compared with the activities of the earlier studied ethoxyquin (EQ; 1,2-dihydro-6-ethoxy-2,2,4-trimethylquinoline), a strong antioxidant used mainly as a preserva...

in this paper we characterize hyper mv -algebras in which 0 or1 are scalar elements . we prove that any nite hyper mv -algebra that 0is a scaler element in it, is an mv -algebra. finally we characterize hypermv -algebras of order 2 and order 3.

1. Introduction Recall that a fuzzy equivalence relation in a nonempty set S is a fuzzy relation eq : S×S → [0,1] such that eq(x,x) = 1 (reflexive); eq(x,y) = eq(y,x) (symmetric) ; eq(x,y)≈eq(y,z) ≤ eq(x,z) (≈-transitive) where ≈ is a t-norm. Now, as observed by De Cock and Kerre in [3], this notion is not suitable to model approximate equality and therefore to solve paradoxes like the so calle...

Background β-Thalassemia is a prevalent genetic disease in Mediterranean countries. The most common treatments for this disease are blood transfusion plus iron chelation (BTIC) therapy and bone marrow transplantation (BMT). Patients using these procedures experience different health-related quality of life (HRQoL). The purpose of the present study was to measure HRQoL in these patients using 2 ...

BACKGROUND Several mapping algorithms have been published with the EORTC-QLQ-C30 for estimating EQ-5D-3L utilities. However, none are available with EQ-5D-5L. Moreover, a comparison between mapping algorithms in the same set of patients has not been performed for these two instruments simultaneously. In this prospective data set of 100 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, we investigate...

In this article, we generalize the concept of the Lie algebra of vector fields to the set of smooth sections of a T-bundle which is by definition a canonical generalization of the concept of a tangent bundle. We define a Lie bracket multiplication on this set so that it becomes a Lie algebra. In the particular case of tangent bundles this Lie algebra coincides with the Lie algebra of vector fie...

BACKGROUND A five-level version of the EuroQol five-dimensional (EQ-5D) descriptive system (EQ-5D-5L) has been developed, but value sets based on preferences directly elicited from representative general population samples are not yet available. The objective of this study was to develop values sets for the EQ-5D-5L by means of a mapping ("crosswalk") approach to the currently available three-l...

in this paper, we generalize some results from hilbert c*-modules to pro-c*-algebra case. we also give a new proof of the known result that l2(a) is ahilbert module over a pro-c*-algebra a.

let $a$ be a $c^*$-algebra and $e$ be a left hilbert $a$-module. in this paper we define a product on $e$ that making it into a banach algebra and show that under the certain conditions $e$  is arens regular. we also study the relationship between derivations of $a$ and $e$.

For two variable real analytic function germs we compare the blowanalytic equivalence in the sense of Kuo to the other natural equivalence relations. Our main theorem states that C equivalent germs are blow-analytically equivalent. This gives a negative answer to a conjecture of Kuo. In the proof we show that the Puiseux pairs of real Newton-Puiseux roots are preserved by the C equivalence of f...
