In this paper we generalize the well known construction of ”classic” measure theory to the fuzzy case. We consider such T-norm based classes of fuzzy sets as T-semirings and T-tribes (T sigmaalgebras), such fuzzy valued functions as elementary T-measures, exterior T-measures and T-measures, and we suggest the construction of a TM-measure by extension of an elementary TM-measure on a TM-semiring...

We prove that the Tutte polynomial of a coloopless paving matroid is convex along the portions of the line segments x + y = p lying in the positive quadrant. Every coloopless paving matroid is in the class of matroids which contain two disjoint bases or whose ground set is the union of two bases. For this latter class we give a proof that TM (a, a) ≤ max{TM (2a, 0), TM (0, 2a)} for a ≥ 2. We co...

AIM Public access defibrillation rarely reaches out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients in residential areas. We developed a text message (TM) alert system, dispatching local lay rescuers (TM-responders). We analyzed the functioning of this system, focusing on response times and early defibrillation in relation to other responders. METHODS In July 2013, 14112 TM-responders and 1550 aut...

Magnetic susceptibility, specific heat, and muon spin relaxation ($\ensuremath{\mu}\mathrm{SR}$) measurements have been performed on a synthesized three-dimensional sandglass-type lattice ${\mathrm{Tm}}_{3}{\mathrm{SbO}}_{7}$, where two inequivalent sets of non-Kramers ${\mathrm{Tm}}^{3+}$ ions (${\mathrm{Tm}}_{1}^{3+}$ ${\mathrm{Tm}}_{2}^{3+})$ show crystal electrical field effect at different...

Bacterial pathogens must sense and respond to newly encountered host environments to regulate the expression of critical virulence factors that allow for niche adaptation and successful colonization. Among bacterial pathogens, non-typhoidal serovars of Salmonella enterica, such as serovar Typhimurium (S. Tm), are a primary cause of foodborne illnesses that lead to hospitalizations and deaths wo...

Forty-six Thoroughbred and Quarter Horse yearlings were used in two experiments to evaluate the effect of mineral supplementation on growth and skeletal development. In the first experiment, concentrate and bermudagrass hay diets providing 2.82 Mcal DE/kg (estimated), 13.0% CP, .62% Ca and .43% P on a DM basis were supplemented with trace minerals (TM) by adding 0, .5 or 1.0% TM premix to the c...

Purpose Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is particularly common in older individuals and associated with pathologic degeneration of the trabecular meshwork (TM). We have shown previously that transplantation of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) derived TM cells restores aqueous humor dynamics in young transgenic mice expressing a pathogenic form of human myocilin (Tg-MYOCY437H). This study...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa background: considering the presence of squamous epithelial cells and fibroblasts in the tympanic membrane (tm), topical estrogen application may influence the repair of tm perforations. therefore, this study was designed to investigate the healing effect of topical estrogen on chronic tm perforations and improvement in hearing threshold. materials ...
