BACKGROUND To determine the interaction effect between APOE polymorphism and lipid concentrations and alcohol use on spontaneous deep intracerebral hemorrhage (SDICH) risks. METHODS We enrolled 217 SDICH patients and 280 controls. Anthropometrics, personal history, and concentrations of total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c), ...

We study the $L^{2}$-boundedness of $3$-dimensional (Heisenberg) Riesz transform on intrinsic Lipschitz graphs in first Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}$. Inspired by notion vertical perimeter, recently defined and studied Lafforgue, Naor, Young, we introduce new scale translation invariant coefficients $\operatorname{osc}_{\Omega}(B(q,r))$. These quantify oscillation a domain $\Omega \subset \math...

designing and producing a proper fusion construction is the most important problem of producing large quantities of a properly folded functional protein. this construction should have all necessary components of a real gene. a good designed fusion gene construction could be cloned into a good and suitable host. clostridium perfringens is an important pathogen of humans and livestock and produce...

We extend the non-Markovian quantum state diffusion (QSD) equation to open quantum systems which exhibit multi-channel coupling to a harmonic oscillator reservoir. Open quantum systems which have multi-channel reservoir coupling are those in which canonical transformation of reservoir modes cannot reduce the number of reservoir operators appearing in the interaction Hamiltonian to one. We show ...

For a capacitor formed of MOS device using Metal-silicon dioxide-silicon (MOS) layers with an oxide thickness of 528 Å (measured optically), some of the material parameters were found from the curve drawn between Capacitance vs Voltage (C-V) through the Visual Engineering Environment Programming (VEE Pro) software. To perform the measurment, process by a distance, from the hazardous room, we us...

Five years after the apparent end of the major 1995 Venezuelan equine encephalitis (VEE) epizootic/epidemic, focal outbreaks of equine encephalitis occurred in Carabobo and Barinas States of western Venezuela. Virus isolates from horses in each location were nearly identical in sequence to 1995 isolates, which suggests natural persistence of subtype IC VEE virus (VEEV) strains in a genetically ...

In this note we deal with intuitionistic modal logics over $\mathcal{M}\mathcal{I}PC$ and predicate superintuitionistic logics. We study the correspondence between the lattice of all (normal) extensions of MTPC and the lattice of all predicate superintuitionistic logics. Let $\mathrm{L}_{Prop}$ denote a propositional language which contains two modal operators $\square$ and $\mathrm{O}$ , and $...

The use of random samples to approximate properties of geometric configurations has been an influential idea for both combinatorial and algorithmic purposes. This chapter considers two related notions—ǫ-approximations and ǫ-nets—that capture the most important quantitative properties that one would expect from a random sample with respect to an underlying geometric configuration. An example pro...

An existing model of light and water use by crops (RESCAP) was adapted and evaluated for trees. In the model, growth on any given day is determined either by the amount of intercepted radiation (by means of the light utilization coefficient, epsilon) or by the maximum rate of water extraction by roots (a function of root biomass and soil water content). In either case, transpiration and growth ...
