The effect of strenuous physical activity on the incidence of benign breast disease and benign tumours of the female reproductive system is unknown. Previous findings of a lower prevalence of breast cancer and cancers of the reproductive system among former college athletes compared to non-athletes (Frisch et al., 1985) suggested that former athletes and non-athletes might also differ in the pr...

Please do not change the peer-review process. Based on many years of experience with the submission process, I have constructed a scale for authors to assess for themselves the probability of acceptance of a neuropsychological manuscript. Positive scores increase the probability of acceptance and negative scores decrease it. Here I present the six most characteristic items of this scale: (1) Au...

Nowadays, synthetic meshes are widely used in reconstructive surgeries of the pelvic floor. However, since the publication of the FDA warning about associated complications in 2011 (1), several discussions and contrary opinions have been published about its usefulness. The fear of court lawsuits related to side effects, common in some settings, has contributed to the widening of global discussi...

We show that some natural output conventions for error-free computation in chemical reaction networks (CRN) lead to a common level of computational expressivity. Our main results are that the standard definition of error-free CRNs have equivalent computational power to 1) asymmetric and 2) democratic CRNs. The former have only “yes” voters, with the interpretation that the CRN’s output is yes i...

Recent successes with incomplete satis ability procedures raise numerous issues about their uses and evaluation. Most such procedures search for \yes" answers, and give up if they do not nd one. The need for \no" answers as well is addressed. It is shown that a recent approximation algorithm of Yannakakis can produce \no" answers only in somewhat trivial cases. The possibility of salvaging info...

In a yes/no voting game, a set of voters must determine whether to accept or reject a given alternative. Weighted voting games are a well-studied subclass of yes/no voting games, in which each voter has a weight, and an alternative is accepted if the total weight of its supporters exceeds a certain threshold. Weighted voting games are naturally extended to k-vector weighted voting games, which ...
