This paper investigates the univalence axiom in intensional Martin-Löf type theory. In particular, it looks at how univalence can be derived from simpler axioms. We first present some existing work, collected together from various published and unpublished sources; we then we present a new decomposition of the univalence axiom into simpler axioms. We argue that these axioms are easier to verify...

BACKGROUND By using the conventional method of measuring two-points (systolic and diastolic) blood pressure, it is difficult to differentiate a heart disease-prone personality from normals. Recently, an oscillometric method that reflects the personalized trait of blood pressure was developed by one author. OBJECTIVE By using this new measurement technique, this study intended to test the poss...

Background: Although studies reported diabetes mellitus screening cost effective, the mass screening for type2 diabetes remains controversial. In this study we reviewed the recently evidence about the cost effectiveness of mass screening systematically.   Methods: We reviewed the MEDLINE, Scopus, Web of Science (WOS), and Cochrane library databases by MeSH terms to identify relevan...

Background: Tyrosinemia type 1 is an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder, which typically affects liver and kidneys. It is caused by a defect in fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase or fumarylacetoacetase (FAH) enzyme, the final enzyme in the tyrosine degradation pathway. The disease typically manifests as early onset type in early infancy with acute hepatic crisis with hepatomegaly and bleeding te...

Let G be a molecular graph. The Wiener index of G is defined as the summation of all distances between vertices of G. In this paper, an exact formula for the Wiener index of a new type of nanostar dendrimer is given.

Ramadan fasting is an important pillars of Islam .although patients and children expected from fasting during Ramadan, but every diabetic adolescents intends to fast should consult his diabetes management time, and intensive monitoring of blood glucose and urine ketones .close observation by endocrinologist, and weekly follow- up and highly individualized planning for each diabetic person is es...

We present an incremental constraint solver as the nucleus of a soft type checker for a higher-order concurrent constraint language. Designed as a variation of rational tree uniication, our algorithm additionally decides satissability of weak subtype constraints of the form xy. It allows for a number of extensions such as record types, sorts, union types, and type declarations, which we discuss...

abstract wenner direct contact method is a method of estimating apparent electrical conductivity (eca) of agricultural soils in situ. this method can be affected by factors such as quality of electrodes in contact with soil, type of employed electric current, moisture content, clay content and compaction of soil. in this research, the effect of electrode type (rod and plate) and electric curren...

conclusions the study revealed a high prevalence of multi-drug resistance (mdr), class 1 integron, sccmec type iii, and spa type t030 amongst mrsa associated with burn wounds in an iranian hospital. the existence of sccmec type iii in burn patients emphasizes the nosocomial origin of these strains. objectives the aim of this study was to determine the distribution and molecular types of mrsa in...
