We investigate the voting rules in the Council of the European Union. It is known that the current system, according to the Treaty of Nice, and the voting system proposed in the Lisbon treaty both strongly deviate from the square root law by Penrose. This is known to be the ideal voting rule under certain assumptions. In 2004 SS lomczynski and ˙ Zyczkowski designed a voting system, now known as...

As suboptimal blood glucose control has a lasting harmful effect even if control improves later, intensive insulin therapy to minimise hyperglycaemia is now recommended for all patients with type 1 diabetes. The new rapid- and long-acting insulin analogues offer more physiological insulin profiles than traditional insulin preparations. Continuous insulin infusion ("pump therapy") may provide a ...

In this paper we propose a centralized control method for routing and scheduling fleet of autonomously guided vehicles that serves online transportation requests. Our maintains central schedule, which is revised each time vehicle finishes its current task or new request arrives. The main benefit the schedule it ensures provably conflict-free large on almost any layout, permits optimization taki...

Poor glycaemic control in type 2 diabetes: a conspiracy of disease, suboptimal therapy and attitude

Good glycemic control is crucial to prevent the onset and progression of late diabetic complications, but insulin treatment often fails to achieve normalization of glycemic control to the level seen in healthy controls. In fact, recent experimental studies indicate that insufficient treatment with insulin, resulting in poor glycemic control, has an additional effect on progression of late diabe...

BACKGROUND According to the Global Initiative of Asthma, the aim of asthma treatment is to gain and maintain control. In the INTERNATIONAL CROSS-SECTIONAL AND LONGITUDINAL ASSESSMENT ON ASTHMA CONTROL (LIAISON) study, we evaluated the level of asthma control and quality of life (QoL), as well as their determinants and impact in a population consulting specialist settings. METHODS LIAISON is a...
