Although the prevalence of type 2 diabetes is increasing, there are cases difficult to categorize into certain type in pediatric diabetic patients. The aims of this study were to detect and choose a proper treatment modality for atypical cases of diabetes mellitus, using the body composition chart. We conducted a retrospective study from August 2005 to 2012 with patients who visited Konkuk Univ...

We find the generating function for C(n, k, r), the number of compositions of n into k positive parts all of whose runs (contiguous blocks of constant parts) have lengths less than r, using recent generalizations of the method of Guibas and Odlyzko for finding the number of words that avoid a given list of subwords.

We derive explicit formulas for the maximum part-product over the set of palindromic compositions of a given integer and over the set of palindromic compositions of a given integer with only odd parts. These results are extensions of the well-known elementary formula for the maximum part-product over the set of classical partitions.

In this paper we give an exhaustive generation algorithm for the class of m-compositions of integers with fixed m. Moreover we define a Gray code to list these combinatorial objects according to a particular order. Finally, we define m-partitions, which are an m-dimensional generalization of integer partitions, and an exhaustive generation algorithm for m-partitions, based on the same ideas use...

For R = 1 − exp(−R) a random closed set obtained by exponential transformation of the closed range R of a subordinator, a regenerative composition of generic positive integer n is defined by recording the sizes of clusters of n uniform random points as they are separated by the points of R. We focus on the number of parts K n of the composition when R is derived from a gamma subordinator. We pr...

This review is focused on experimental methods for determination of the composition of the human body, its organs and tissues. It summarizes the development and current status of fat determinations from body density, total body water determinations through the dilution technique, whole and partial body potassium measurements for body cell mass estimates, in vivo neutron activation analysis for ...

a water soluble polysaccharide, hb-1, with a molecular weight of 23,930, was isolated from radix ranunculi ternati. by hot water extraction, ethanol precipitation, deproteination，ultrafiltration and gel-filtration column chromatography. its sugar composition was determined by glc as glc, ara, and gal in a molar ration of 16.071: 2.722: 1. and the absolute configuration of glc was identified as ...

Nanosized metal particles of various configurations embedded in surface regions of glass have great potential as nonlinear optical materials for photonic devices. We have prepared Ag/Au nanoparticles in core-shell configuration in soda-lime silicate glass by double-ion implantation and investigated their structural characteristics by anomalous small-angle x-ray scattering (ASAXS) and transmissi...

Weighted composition operators appear in the study of dynamical systems and also in characterizing isometries of some classes of Banach spaces. One of the most important generalizations of weighted composition operators, are generalized weighted composition operators which in special cases of their inducing functions give different types of well-known operators like: weighted composition operat...
