Uterine leiomyoma (UL) is the most common benign smooth muscle cell tumor with as yet unknown etiology and pathogenesis. This study was carried out to investigate the association of ESR1-351 A>G, ESR1 -397 T>C and CYP1A1 (Ile462Val) polymorphisms with UL in female patients of Iranian origin. In this case-control study, 276 patients with UL and 156 healthy women were recruited. The genetic polym...

In the dye-binding method, the absorbance increase caused by a protein error of a pH indicator is observed only in a restricted pH range. However, this pH range in the presence of a detergent has not yet been examined. Thus, the author investigated the pH (pH(UL)) where the absorbance increase becomes zero by a calculation based on the chemical equilibrium of a protein error of a pH indicator, ...

In this paper, we consider the sum α-fair utility maximization problem for joint downlink (DL) and uplink (UL) transmissions of a wireless powered communication network (WPCN) via time and power allocation. In the DL, the users with energy harvesting receiver architecture decode information and harvest energy based on simultaneous wireless information and power transfer. While in the UL, the us...

In this paper, we consider the frequency offset estimation for Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) uplink (UL) transmissions. We first analyze the negative effect of Multi-Access-Interference (MAI) on OFDMA UL, and then propose two interference reduction/elimination methods, i.e., the Reduced-Rank-Projector (RRP) and Shift-Sampling-Projector (SSP) methods, to eliminate/reduce ...

the word relation is a new concept that did not used in its today`s meaning one hundred and fifty years ago. in spite of this situation, its substitute concepts like friendliness is used in nahj ul-balāghah many times and each of them express varieties & places in general relation between human and god and other relations. on the whole, we face four relations: human relation with god, himself a...

In this dataset, we analyzed galvanic-evoked head movements (GEHMs) in the spatial planes of yaw, and roll in normal and unilaterally labyrinthectomized (UL) Wistar rats. The rats were assigned in 4 groups of 10: control, sham, right-UL and left-UL. Bilateral galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) was presented by our "ring-shaped electrode" design (see "Short-term galvanic vestibular stimulatio...

This paper describes our efforts to create a Unified Lexicon by extracting information from a variety of external resources, namely our XLE syntactic lexicon, WordNet, Cyc, and VerbNet. The UL is built in several steps: first the information is extracted from the resources; then it is merged into lexical entries based on word stem, syntactic subcategorization frame, meaning concept, and WordNet...

We describe a class of C *-algebras which simultaneously generalise the ul-tragraph algebras of Tomforde and the shift space C *-algebras of Matsumoto. In doing so we shed some new light on the different C *-algebras that may be associated to a shift space. Finally, we show how to associate a simple C *-algebra to an irreducible sofic shift.

We discuss the fate of initial states of the cat type for the damped harmonic oscillator, mostly employing a linear version of the stochastic Schrödinger equation. We also comment on how such cat states might be prepared and on the relation of single realizations of the noise to single runs of experiments. Typeset using REVTEX 1

Analyses using simplified coupled-channels models have been unable to describe the shape of the previously measured fusion barrier distribution for the doubly magic O+Pb system. This problem was investigated by remeasuring the fission excitation function for O+Pb with improved accuracy and performing more exact coupled-channels calculations, avoiding the constant-coupling and first-order coupli...
