In this paper, a new inequality for generalized convex functions which is related to the left side of generalized Hermite-Hadamard type inequality is obtained. Some applications for some generalized special means are also given.

Background: Achieving haemostasis during surgical procedures within the brain is of paramount importance. Bipolar cauterization is most effectively used to occlude identifiable vessels but it has minimal efficacy in controlling the oozing bleeding that characterises most neurological pathologies. In such cases chemical haemostatic agents are often preferable to bipolar cautery. Rarely these che...

In this article, we present a perspective on the role of the hippocampal system in generalization, instantiated in a computational model called REMERGE (recurrency and episodic memory results in generalization). We expose a fundamental, but neglected, tension between prevailing computational theories that emphasize the function of the hippocampus in pattern separation (Marr, 1971; McClelland, M...

The ‘simulation hypothesis’ is an intriguing explanation for cognition, and holds that ‘thinking consists of simulated interaction with the environment’ ([4], p.242). However, the neuroscientific proof for a simulation mechanism in the brain is indirect. In this paper we present a minimal-model approach to investigate the ‘simulation hypothesis’. Our minimal model is called ACP? and is an exten...

OBJECTIVE To compare the laparotomy and laparoscopy techniques for correction of ventral hernia when related to perioperative complications, length of hospitalization, surgical time, and recurrence of hernia. METHODS This was a systematic review of randomized controlled trials, which included studies retrieved from four databases (MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane and LILACS), using a combination of ...

Current findings from genetic studies of complex human traits often do not explain a large proportion of the estimated variation of these traits due to genetic factors. This could be, in part, due to overly stringent significance thresholds in traditional statistical methods, such as linear and logistic regression. Machine learning methods, such as Random Forests (RF), are an alternative approa...

We construct generalized symmetries for linearized Einstein gravity in arbitrary dimensions. First-principle considerations quantum field theory force to appear dual pairs. Verifying this prediction helps us find the full set of nontrivial conserved charges---associated, equal parts, with 2-form and ($D\ensuremath{-}2$)-form currents. Their total number is $D(D+1)$. compute commutators pairs ch...
