UNLABELLED BACKGROUND The vitamin-like omega-3 and omega-6 essential fatty acids are converted in the body to a large family of hormones which act at selective receptors that occur on nearly every cell and tissue. A relative omega-3 deficit allows overabundant actions of omega-6 hormones to develop into health disorders. People need simple, explicit information on the balance of essential fa...

BACKGROUND The role of omega-3 (n-3) fatty acids (FAs) in the development of type 2 diabetes is uncertain, especially with regard to any differential influence of α-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). OBJECTIVE The objective was to examine the association between total omega-3 FAs, marine omega-3 (EPA, DHA), nonmarine omega-3 (ALA), and omega-6 (...

The field theoretic renormalization group is applied to a simple model of random walk on rough fluctuating surface. We consider the Fokker--Planck equation for particle in uniform gravitational field. surface modelled by generalized Edwards--Wilkinson linear stochastic height full reformulated as multiplicatively renormalizable theory, which allows application standard theory. equations have se...

‎Let $Omega$ be a class of unital‎ ‎$C^*$-algebras‎. ‎We introduce the notion of a local tracial $Omega$-algebra‎. ‎Let $A$ be an $alpha$-simple unital local tracial $Omega$-algebra‎. ‎Suppose that $alpha:Gto $Aut($A$) is an action of a finite group $G$ on $A$‎ ‎which has a certain non-simple tracial Rokhlin property‎. ‎Then the crossed product algebra‎ ‎$C^*(G,A,alpha)$ is a unital local traci...

In this study the effect of temperature, NaCl and oils (hydrocarbons: C(8)-C(16)) on the formation and solubilization capacity of the systems of oil/monoacylglycerols (MAG):ethoxylated fatty alcohols (CEO(20))/propylene glycol (PG)/water was investigated. The effects of the surfactant mixture on the phase behavior and the concentration of water or oil in the systems were studied at three temper...

a 42-d study was conducted to evaluate the influence of full-fat flaxseed (fs) and canola seed (cs) on broiler performance, fatty acid (fa) profile of meat, and the oxidative stability of meat during frozen storage. a total of 324 one-day old broiler chicks were randomly attributed to 6 experimental groups and fed iso-energetic and isonitrogenous diets as follows, c: control (soybean-corn); cs1...

PURPOSE To determine whether there is an association between dietary omega-3 (omega-3) fatty acid intake, age, and intraocular pressure (IOP) caused by altered aqueous outflow. METHODS Sprague-Dawley rats were fed either omega-3-sufficient (omega-3(+)) or omega-3-deficient (omega-3(-)) diets from conception. The diets had 7% lipid content. The omega-3(+) diet contained safflower, flaxseed, an...

The Center for Genetics, Nutrition and Health, 2001 S Street, NW, Suite 530, Washington DC 20009 USA Abstract: Today, Western diets are characterized by a higher omega-6 and a lower omega-3 fatty acid intake, whereas during the Paleolithic period when human’s genetic profile was established, there was a balance between omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids. Their balance is an...

We provide a simple analysis of the big-bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) sensitivity to light dark matter (DM) generated by thermal freeze-in mechanism. It is shown that ratio effective neutrino number shift $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Delta}}{N}_{\ensuremath{\nu}}$ over DM relic density $\ensuremath{\omega}\ensuremath{\equiv}\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Omega}}{h}^{2}$, denoted ${R}_{\ensuremath{\chi}}\ensuremath...

The original paper presents an efficient algorithm for routing an Omega -1 × Omega nonblocking network. This comment presents an extra step required to route an Omega + Omega network.
