Several Germanic languages use correlatives to mark subordination. German is considered to be a prime example of a language realizing correlative constructions to embed finite argument clauses. This paper discusses complex clausal constructions in German that can be identified by a so-called correlative nominal element es (‘it’) and a right-peripheral full clausal argument that is linked to es....

Let G be a split connected reductive group over a finite field Fp with algebraic closure k, fix an Iwahori subgroup B ⊂ G(Fp([[t]])) and let F l = G(k((t)))/Bk denote the affine flag variety of G. Let q denote a power of p and fix a prime l 6= p. In [GH], the authors study the Jordan-Hölder series for objects in the Hecke category P q (F l,Ql). This is the category of B-equivariant perverse Wei...

Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) is the most common primary brain malignancy in humans and has a limited survival (median of 14.6 months). The goal of treatment is supportive rather than curative. Patients with a GBM struggle with uncertainty related to the illness trajectory. This uncertainty is compounded when possible progression is noted on imaging. Pseudoprogression (PsP) is an early treatmen...

We present a method for the analysis of meta-analytic functional imaging data. It is based on Activation Likelihood Estimation (ALE) and subsequent model-based clustering using Gaussian mixture models, expectation-maximization (EM) for model fitting, and the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) for model selection. Our method facilitates the clustering of activation maxima from previously perfo...

Hepatic resection is a commonly performed procedure for a variety of malignant and benign hepatic tumours [1, 2]. Historically, liver resection, irrespective of the indication, was associ‐ ated with a high morbidity and mortality [2-4]. During the last decades however, perioperative outcome after hepatic resection has improved, due to increased knowledge of liver anatomy and function, improveme...

Te purpose of research was identifying the relationship between achievement motivation and efficiency of agricultural faculty staff, Islamic Azad University Shoushtar Branch. The method of research was a descriptive-correlative. The sample size was agricultural faculty staff (n=45). A five-point Likert-type scale was used as the instrument to gather data in order to measure the achievement moti...
