A subthreshold pharyngeal stimulus induces lower esophageal sphincter (LES) relaxation and inhibits progression of ongoing peristaltic contraction in the esophagus. Recent studies show that longitudinal muscle contraction of the esophagus may play a role in LES relaxation. Our goal was to determine whether a subthreshold pharyngeal stimulus induces contraction of the longitudinal muscle of the ...

In this paper, we introduce some new classes of proximal contraction mappings and establish  best proximity point theorems for such kinds of mappings in a non-Archimedean fuzzy metric space. As consequences of these results, we deduce certain new best proximity and fixed point theorems in partially ordered non-Archimedean fuzzy metric spaces. Moreover, we present an example to illustrate the us...

In this paper, we introduce the concept of best proximal contraction theorems in non-Archimedean fuzzy metric space for two mappings and prove some proximal theorems. As a consequence, it provides the existence of an optimal approximate solution to some equations which contains no solution. The obtained results extend further the recently development proximal contractions in non-Archimedean fuz...

In this paper we investigate common xed point theorems for contraction mapping in fuzzy metric space introduced by Gregori and Sapena [V. Gregori, A. Sapena, On xed-point the- orems in fuzzy metric spaces, Fuzzy Sets and Systems, 125 (2002), 245-252].

We investigated immunohistochemical differences in the distribution of TRPV1 channels and the contractile effects of capsaicin on smooth muscle in the mouse rectum and distal, transverse, and proximal colon. In the immunohistochemical study, TRPV1 immunoreactivity was found in the mucosa, submucosal, and muscle layers and myenteric plexus. Large numbers of TRPV1-immunoreactive axons were observ...

In this paper we introduce intuitionistic fuzzy contra regular weakly generalized open mappings and intuitionistic fuzzy contra regular weakly generalized closed mappings. We investigate some of their properties.
