Incidence of toxicity for most diseases are reported on the presence or absence of relative adverse effects but in case of chemotherapy induced toxicity i.e. nausea, vomiting, stomatitis or diarrhea, it is limited to the report of severity of the symptoms (Carlotto et al., 2013). Oral and gastrointestinal mucositis/stomatitis are frequently reported in myelosuppressive chemotherapy of solid can...

One characteristic feature of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) neuropathology is the progressive generation, aggregation and deposition of the 42 amino acid amyloid beta (Aβ42) peptide, and other related amyloidogenicmolecules, into dense clumps of insoluble, pro-inflammatory senile plaque cores in the extracellular space of the brain. It is not generally appreciated that the Aβ42 peptide, derived via ...

Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer and the leading cause of cancer death among females, accounting for 23% of the total cancer cases and 14% of the cancer deaths (Jemal et al., 2011). Breast cancer is now also the leading cause of cancer death among females in economically developing countries, a shift from the previous decade during which the most common cause of cancer deat...

This paper analyzes how US presidential candidates should allocate resources across states to maximize the probability of winning the election, by developing and estimating a probabilisticvoting model of political competition under the Electoral College system. Actual campaigns act in close agreement with the model. There is a 0.9 correlation between equilibrium and actual presidential campaign...

Recently, Rahimi et al. [Comp. Appl. Math. 2013, In press] defined the concept of quadrupled fied point in K-metric spaces and proved several quadrupled fixed point theorems for solid cones on K-metric spaces. In this paper some quadrupled fixed point results for T-contraction on K-metric spaces without normality condition are proved. Obtained results extend and generalize well-known comparable...

The 14 papers in this research topic were solicited primarily from attendees to the two most important hands-on workshops in neuromorphic engineering: the Telluride Neuromorphic Cognition Engineering Workshop (www.ine-web.org) and the Capo Caccia Cognitive Neuromorphic Engineering Workshop (capocaccia.ethz. ch). The papers show the results of feasibility studies of new concepts, as well as neur...
