in this paper, we introduce the notion of primal strong co-ideals and give some results involving them. it is shown thatsubtractive strong co-ideals are intersection of all primal strong co-ideals that contain them. also we prove that the representation of strong co-ideals as reduced intersections of primal strong co-ideals is unique.

BACKGROUND All recent treatment guidelines recommend integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs) as components of initial HIV therapy. Bictegravir, a novel, once-daily, unboosted INSTI, showed potent activity in a 10 day monotherapy study and has a high in-vitro resistance barrier. On the basis of these results, we did a phase 2 trial comparing bictegravir with dolutegravir. METHODS In this...

to study the effects of two irrigation regimes and application of barley residue, zeolite and superabsorbent polymer on forage yield and some physiological traits of maize and sorghum, an experiment was conducted over two years in kerman, iran. a randomized complete block design arranged in a factorial split was used with three replications. two irrigation regimes of normal irrigation and water...

Strain DCB-1 is a strict anaerobe capable of reductive dehalogenation. We elucidated metabolic processes in DCB-1 which may be related to dehalogenation and which further characterize the organism physiologically. Sulfoxy anions and CO2 were used by DCB-1 as catabolic electron acceptors. With suitable electron donors, sulfate and thiosulfate were reduced to sulfide. Sulfate and thiosulfate supp...

BACKGROUND Consensus United States cervical cancer screening guidelines recommend use of combination Pap plus human papillomavirus (HPV) testing for women aged 30 to 65 years. An HPV test was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in 2014 for primary cervical cancer screening in women age 25 years and older. Here, we present the results of clinical-economic comparisons of Pap plus HPV mRN...

b[U-‘4Claspartate, L-[U-‘4C]asparagine, and L-[U-“‘Clarginine were administered luminally into isolated segments of rat jejunum in situ, and the radioactive products appearing in venous blood from the segment were identified and quantified, in a continuation of similar studies with L-glutamate and L-glutamine (Windmueller, H. G., and Spaeth, A. E. (1975) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 171, 662-672). A...

In 1996, Fredman and Khachiyan [Journal of Algorithms, 21:618–628, 1996] presented a remarkable algorithm for the problem of checking the duality of a pair of monotone disjunctive normal forms. Their algorithm runs in no(log n) time, thus giving evidence that the problem lies in an intermediate class between P and co-NP. In this paper we show that a modified version of their algorithm requires ...

BACKGROUND Storage symptoms, associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), often co-exist with voiding symptoms in men with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Storage symptoms are likely to be most bothersome, and may not be adequately resolved by treatment with α-blocker or antimuscarinic monotherapy. A recent randomised controlled phase 3 trial (NEPTUNE) demonstrated that a fixed-dose...

It is doubtful that the glyoxylate bypass plays a significant role in the accumulation of fumaric acid by fungi, as has been postulated. In high glucose media, which favor fumarate production, isocitrate lyase (threo-D(s) isocitrate glyoxylate lyase), which is the key enzyme of the glyoxylate bypass, is strongly repressed. The specific activity of this enzyme remains low as long as glucose is p...
