the fixed point alternative methods are implemented to givehyers-ulam  stability for  the quintic functional equation $ f(x+3y)- 5f(x+2y) + 10 f(x+y)- 10f(x)+ 5f(x-y) - f(x-2y) = 120f(y)$ and thesextic functional equation $f(x+3y) - 6f(x+2y) + 15 f(x+y)- 20f(x)+15f(x-y) - 6f(x-2y)+f(x-3y) = 720f(y)$   in the setting ofintuitionistic fuzzy normed spaces (ifn-spaces).  this methodintroduces a met...

Background: Acute rhinosinusitis (ARS) is one of the most common diseases encountered in out-patient setting. X-ray paranasal sinuses gold standard diagnosis ARS with its accessibility and accuracy. Ultrasound examination a noninvasive diagnostic method which an acceptable alternative follow-up treatment. Aim: To present application portable sinuson setting on patients effectiveness. Materials ...

In exercise gaming (exergaming), reward systems are typically based on rules/templates from joint movement patterns. These rules or templates need broad ranges in definitions of correct patterns to accommodate varying body shapes and sizes. This can lead inaccurate rewards and, thus, inefficient exercise, which be detrimental progress. If exergames used serious settings like rehabilitation, acc...

Several genetic aberrations and gene expression changes have been shown to occur when cells are exposed to various types of radiation. The integrity of DNA depends upon several processes that include DNA damage recognition and repair, replication, transcription and cell cycle regulation. Ionizing radiation has many sources, including radon decay from the soil and X-rays from medical practice. E...

CONTEXT Extrahepatic biliary obstruction secondary to pancreatic cysts is rare in patients with von Hippel Lindau syndrome. We describe a patient with von Hippel Lindau syndrome who had biliary obstruction due to pancreatic cysts who was initially managed endoscopically and then surgically. CASE REPORT A female patient with von Hippel Lindau syndrome which had been diagnosed ten years earlier...

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide. Transformation of a normal cell to a malignant one results from mutations in genes that encode key regulatory proteins. Growth factors are proteins secreted by a variety of transformed cells and tumors and function as autocrine regulators of growth. Biomarkers associated with cancer were examined in human breast epithelial cells transf...

Two sublines of a breast epithelial cell culture, MCF-10, derived from human fibrocystic mammary tissue exhibit immortality after extended cultivation in low calcium concentrations (0.03-0.06 HIM)and floating transfers in low calcium (MCF-10F), or by trypsin-Versene passages in the customary (normal) calcium levels, 1.05 HIM (MCF-10A). Both sublines have been maintained as separate entities aft...
