The dynamics of even topological open membranes relies on Nambu Brackets. Consequently, such 2p-branes can be quantized through the consistent quantization of the underlying Nambu dynamical structures. This is a summary construction relying on the methods detailed in refs [1, 2]. The classical motion of topological open membranes is controlled by Nambu Brackets, the multilinear generalization o...

We analyzed the polypeptide pattern of leukemic cells of infants and older children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), using two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). Patterns were analyzed for the occurrence of a previously detected cytosolic polypeptide, designated L3. Quantitative analysis of L3 in 12 infants and 91 older children with non-T ALL indicated lack of expre...

Sarcopenia impairs survival in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study aimed to clarify the factors that contribute to decreased skeletal muscle volume in patients with HCC. The third lumbar vertebra skeletal muscle index (L3 SMI) in 351 consecutive patients with HCC was calculated to identify sarcopenia. Sarcopenia was defined as an L3 SMI value ≤ 29.0 cm²/m² for women and ≤ 3...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Periodic monitoring of vector population for infection and infectivity rates is central to the evaluation of the filariasis elimination strategies in endemic areas to monitor the success of MDA and also to establish endpoints for intervention. The main objective of this study was to develop a RT-PCR assay, based on L3 stage-specific primers to detect the presence of infe...

In this article, a series of mixed-ligand Ag(i) coordination polymers, namely, Ag(L1)H(2)O (), Ag(2)(hmt)(2)(L1)(2) (), [Ag(HL2)]H(2)O (), [Ag(L2)(biim)][Ag(biim)] (), [K(5)(L3)(2)][Ag(H(2)O)(2)] (), [Ag(2)(L3)(3-iso)][Ag(3-iso)]5H(2)O (), [Ag(3)(L3)(bipy)(3)(H(2)O)]6H(2)O (), [Ag(3)(L3)(biim)(3)]H(2)O (), and [Ag(3)(L3)(hmt)(2)(H(2)O)(3)]H(2)O () (where hmt = hexamethylenetetramine, bipy = 4,4...

The early prediction values of diagnostic markers for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are still unclear at present. This study evaluated the prediction value of ten serum markers in HCC. A total of 109 cases of hepatic cirrhosis patients were followed up for 36 months and the relationship between the lifetime risk of developing HCC and levels of serum markers was analyzed. 31.2 (34/109) percent ...

This document proposes unified Layer 2 (L2) abstractions for Layer 3 (L3)-driven fast handovers. For efficient network communication, it is vital for a protocol layer to know or utilize other layers’ information, such as the form of L2 triggers. However, each protocol layer is basically designed independently. Since each protocol layer is also implemented independently in current operating syst...

Silencing of the Fmr1 gene causes fragile X syndrome. Although defects in synaptic plasticity in the cerebral cortex have been linked to cognitive impairments in Fmr1 knock-out (ko) mice, the specific cortical circuits affected in the syndrome are unknown. Here, we investigated the development of excitatory projections in the barrel cortex of Fmr1 ko mice. In 2-week-old Fmr1 ko mice, a major as...
