The serotonin molecule has some remarkable properties. It is synthesized by two different genes at two different sites, and, surprisingly, plays antagonistic functions on bone mass accrual at these two sites. When produced peripherally, serotonin acts as a hormone to inhibit bone formation. In contrast, when produced in the brain, serotonin acts as a neurotransmitter to exert a positive and dom...

Argumentation frameworks have proven to be a successful approach to formalizing commonsense reasoning. Recently, some argumentation frameworks have been extended to deal with possibilistic uncertainty, notably Possibilistic Defeasible Logic Programming (P-DeLP). At the same time, modelling argument accrual has gained attention from the argumentation community. Even though some preliminary forma...

This paper argues that accrual should be modelled in terms of reasoning about the application of preferences to sets of arguments, and shows how such reasoning can be formalised within metalevel argumentation frameworks. These frameworks adopt the same machinery and level of abstraction as Dung’s argumentation framework. We thus provide a dialectical argumentation semantics that integrates accr...

through-plane concomitant field phase accrual, for a phantom (squares no correction, triangles corrected) and human brain (circles no correction, diamonds corrected). Dephasing from concomitant gradient fields leads to error in ADC that increases with distance from isocenter (zS = 10cm-superior; zS = 0cm-inferior). FIG 1. Diffusion gradient timing for StejskalTanner (ST; insensitive to concomit...

Accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is an important pathogenic mechanism underling the loss of bone mass and strength with aging and other conditions leading to osteoporosis. The transcription factor erythroid 2-related factor2 (Nrf2) plays a central role in activating the cellular response to ROS. Here, we examined the endogenous response of bone regulated by Nrf2, and its relationsh...

The aim of the paper is to analyse association between use accrual-based and real earnings management practices before company goes public decision institutional investors on buying or refraining from shares offered in initial offering (IPO). sample consists 258 Polish new stock companies over period 2005-2020. We find that such refrain massive pre-IPO period: both accrual-based. However, we ev...

Accrual-based accounting enables external users to make informed decisions by reporting an entity’s management performance them. It also helps managers accurately record resource usage and increase efficiency. Despite the Republic of Korea’s expectations for introduction accrual-based in national from 2011, aimed at achieving efficient comparable private companies, results audit Board Audit Ins...
