equitable distribution of income and economic growth are challenges for policy-makers. therefore, it is important to investigate the influencing factors of it. given that financial development is an important factor affecting on income inequality, in this study, the effect of financial development on the gini coefficient as income inequality index is examined with using panel data methods durin...

In (Simpson 2003) A. Simpson introduced the category PreDom of topological predomains as a framework for denotational semantics containing also most classical spaces, namely all countably based T0 spaces. Countably based T0 spaces are isomorphic to subspaces of Pω where the latter is endowed with the Scott topology. A qcb space (as introduced in (Menni and Simpson 2002)) is a T0 space which app...

Objective Compare the number of recurrences in patients with WHO Grade I meningiomas that underwent microsurgical resection. Introduction In 1957 Simpson established five grades for surgical resection for intracranial meningiomas and recurrence rate. He thought that an aggressive removal of these tumors with dura and bone was necessary to cure them. Development of new diagnostic methods, adva...

OBJECTIVE Meningioma is the second most common primary central nervous system neoplasm. In contrast, chordoid meningioma is rare; due to the paucity of cases, little is known about its clinical features or treatment outcomes. The objectives of this study were to describe the clinical characteristics and outcomes for patients with chordoid meningioma. METHODS In total, 16 patients, with newly ...

We investigated local genetic associations among female Pacific common eiders (Somateria mollissima v-nigrum) nesting in a stochastic Arctic environment within two groups of barrier islands (Simpson Lagoon and Mikkelsen Bay) in the Beaufort Sea, Alaska. Nonrandom genetic associations were observed among nesting females using regional spatial autocorrelation analyses for distance classes up to 1...

In this manuscript, a new class of extended (m1,m2)-convex and concave functions is introduced. After some properties of (m1,m2)-convex functions have been given, the inequalities obtained with Hölder and Hölder-İşcan and power-mean and improwed power-mean integral inequalities have been compared and it has been shown that the inequality with Hölder-İşcan inequality gives a better approach than...

background exploring changes in health inequality and its determinants over time is of policy interest. accordingly, this study aimed to decompose inequality in neonatal mortality into its contributing factors and then explore changes from 1995-2000 to 2005-2010 in iran.   methods required data were drawn from two iran’s demographic and health survey (dhs) conducted in 2000 and 2010. normalized...

An RNA editing-like internal uridine (U) incorporation activity (G. C. Frech, N. Bakalara, L Simpson, and A. M. Simpson, EMBO J. 14:178-187, 1995) and a 3'-terminal U addition activity (N. Bakalara, A. M. Simpson, and L. Simpson, J. Biol. Chem. 264:18679-18686, 1989) have been previously described by using a mitochondrial extract from Leishmania tarentolae. Chiral phosphorothioates were used to...
