A numerical index is introduced for semigroups of completely positive maps of B(H) which generalizes the index of E0-semigroups. It is shown that the index of a unital completely positive semigroup agrees with the index of its dilation to an E0-semigroup, provided that the dilation is minimal. Introduction. We introduce a numerical index for semigroups P = {Pt : t ≥ 0} of normal completely posi...

ü Define the geometry of the system and assign an index number to each cell. Specify the topology by listing the neighbours of each cell. latticevector1 = N@8Sqrt@3D, 0<D;H* for hexagonal lattice *L latticevector2 = N@8Sqrt@3D ê 2, 3 ê 2<D; H* for hexagonal lattice *L addresses = Flatten@Table@8ja, jb<, 8ja, 0, n1 1<, 8jb, 0, n2 1<D, 1D; H* list of lattice addresses of the cells in the patch *L...

AIM To investigate whether there is a relation between neutrophillymphocyte (N/L) and platelet- lymphocyte (P/L) ratios and epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) thickness in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). METHODS Thirty patients diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis and 25 healthy people (controls) were included in the study. Age, gender, body mass index (BMI), height, hemogram, sedime...

Objectives. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between plasma endocannabinoids and insulin resistance (IR) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Methods. A population of 64 with OSA and 24 control subjects was recruited. Body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, lipids, blood glucose and insulin, homeostasis model of assessment for insulin resistance index ...

We assess the level of tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) in tear fluids and other serum parameters associated with diabetes in different degrees of diabetic retinopathy. We have performed a prospective, nonrandomized, observational study. Study population consisted of 16 healthy subjects (controls) and 32 type 2 diabetic patients: 16 affected by proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) a...
