Abstract Introduction One of the major problems faced by world today is cancer. Cancer an abnormal growth cells. Chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation therapy are treatment regimen for Prolonged use chemotherapy drugs can cause different side effects such as alopecia, weight loss, sexual dysfunction, mood swings, most important one taste alterations. The aim study to determine alterations (TAs) ...

Introduction A growing body of literature has shown an association between somatic symptoms and insecure "attachment style." In a recent study, we found a relationship between migraine severity, ambivalent attachment style, and psychological symptoms in children/adolescents. There is evidence that caregivers' attachment styles and their way of management/expression of emotions can influence chi...

OBJECTIVE Adolescence is a period of developing emotional regulation. However, alexithymia has rarely been examined during this period. The objective of this study is to examine the factor structure and internal consistency of the Korean version of the 20-item Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20K) in normal adolescents in South Korea. METHODS The TAS-20K was administered to a sample of 290 adol...

Here we use low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy to reveal the roles of narrow electronic band in two 1$T$-TaS$_2$ related materials (bulk 4$H_{\rm b}$-TaS$_2$). b}$-TaS$_2$ is a superconducting compound with alternating 1$H$-TaS$_2$ layers, where layer has weak charge density wave (CDW) pattern reduces CDW coupling between adjacent layers. In b}$-TaS$_2$, observe loca...

Alexithymia ("no words for feelings") is a major risk factor for psychosomatic and psychiatric conditions characterized by affect dysregulation. The alexithymia personality construct comprises an affective dimension, the level of subjective emotional experience (emotionalizing and fantasizing), and a cognitive dimension, referring to the cognitive control of emotions (identifying, analyzing, an...

This paper presents the average capacity and error performance of 3×4 orthogonal space time block code (OSTBC) and transmits antenna selection (TAS) with multiple antennas. In TAS scheme, we consider one transmit antenna is selected for transmit signals at the secondary transmitters and the secondary receiver applies the maximum likelihood (ML). In 3×4 OSTBC scheme, we consider three transmit a...

Most location-aware mobile applications only make use of the user’s current location, but there is an opportunity for them to infer the user’s future locations. We present Trajectory-Aware Search (TAS), a mobile local search application that predicts the user’s destination in real-time based on location data from the current trip and shows search results near the predicted location. TAS demonst...

The outage probability (OP) performance of multiple-relay incremental-selective decode-and-forward (ISDF) relaying mobile-to-mobile (M2M) sensor networks with transmit antenna selection (TAS) over N-Nakagami fading channels is investigated. Exact closed-form OP expressions for both optimal and suboptimal TAS schemes are derived. The power allocation problem is formulated to determine the optima...

QUESTIONS UNDER STUDY In recent years, distress and alexithymia have been recognised as psychosocial factors related to both somatic and psychosomatic diseases. In this study distress and alexithymia and their associations with physical parameters were investigated in lung recipients. METHODS The study, which included 76 patients after a lung transplant, measured psychological distress (Sympt...
