Additive models with backfitting algorithms are popular multivariate nonparametric fitting techniques. However, the inferences of the models have not been very well developed, due partially to the complexity of the backfitting estimators. There are few tools available to answer some important and frequently asked questions, such as whether a specific additive component is significant or admits ...

BACKGROUND Diabetes is one of the most common metabolic disorders, with a high prevalence of patients with poor metabolic control. Worldwide, evidence highlights the importance of developing and implementing educational interventions that can reduce this burden. The main objective of this study was to analyse the impact of a lifestyle centred intervention on glycaemic control of poorly controll...

A characteriation of continuity of the $p$-$Lambda$-variation function is given and the Helly's selection principle for $Lambda BV^{(p)}$ functions is established. A characterization of the inclusion of Waterman-Shiba classes into classes of functions with given integral modulus of continuity is given. A useful estimate on modulus of variation of functions of class $Lambda BV^{(p)}$ is found.

The decline in estrogen at menopause leads to a loss of neuroprotective function. One the effects is Alzheimer’s disease (AD), with clinical manifestations dementia, decreased memory function, language, thinking, and learning. pathology AD widely studied but not completely understood. Various animal models have been used able represent fully. This study aimed determine effect oral intraperitone...

cospectrality of two graphs measures the differences between the ordered spectrum of these graphs in various ways. actually,the origin of this concept came back to richard brualdi's problems that are proposed in cite{braldi}:let $g_n$ and $g'_n$ be two nonisomorphic simple graphs on $n$ vertices with spectra$$lambda_1 geq lambda_2 geq cdots geq lambda_n ;;;text{and};;; lambda'_1 geq lambda'_2 g...

Let $P(G,lambda)$ be the chromatic polynomial of a graph $G$. A graph $G$ ischromatically unique if for any graph $H$, $P(H, lambda) = P(G,lambda)$ implies $H$ is isomorphic to $G$. In this paper, we determine the chromaticity of all Tur'{a}n graphs with at most three edges deleted. As a by product, we found many families of chromatically unique graphs and chromatic equivalence classes of graph...
