Background: Bullying and lack of social skills are important factors for future risk-related problems such as delinquency and feelings of rejection in children. The present study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of Coloring Mandala as Jungian art to reduce bullying and increase social skills in Afghan boys working children. Methods: It was a quasi-experimental study with pretest and p...

The percentage nitroblue-tetrazolium (NBT) leucocyte levels were evaluated daily in the 10 days following a first attack of coronary thrombosis. In 12 uncomplicated cases the peak increase was on the second or third day; thereafter the level declined and was below 10% by the tenth day. Three other patients did not conform to this pattern of NBT behaviour. They had experienced a second myocardia...

Let K be an algebraic function field of characteristic 2 with constant field C K. Let C be the algebraic closure of a finite field in K. Assume that C has an extension of degree 2. Assume that there are elements u, x of K with u transcendental over C K and x algebraic over C(u) and such that K = C K (u, x). Then Hilbert's Tenth Problem over K is undecidable. Together with Shlapentokh's result f...

Despite the recursive non-computability of Hilbert’s tenth problem, we outline and argue for a quantum algorithm that is based on the Quantum Adiabatic Theorem. It is explained how this algorithm can solve Hilbert’s tenth problem. The algorithm is then considered in the context of several “no-go” arguments against such hypercomputation. Logical arguments are usually based on Cantor’s diagonal t...

We investigated intercellular communication during the seventh and tenth cell cycles of Xenopus laevis development using microinjection of Lucifer yellow and FITC-dextran as well as freeze-fracture electron microscopy. We found that gap junction-mediated dye coupling visualized using Lucifer yellow was strongly cell cycle modulated in the tenth cell cycle. Cytoplasmic bridge-mediated dye coupli...

Inspired by Quantum Mechanics, we reformulate Hilbert’s tenth problem in the domain of integer arithmetics into either a problem involving a set of infinitely coupled differential equations or a problem involving a Shrödinger propagator with some appropriate kernel. Either way, Mathematics and Physics could be combined for Hilbert’s tenth problem and for the notion of effective computability.
