In recent years, considerable discussion has occurred about stigma surrounding the name given to an illness currently known as chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). Although patients and medical personnel have expressed varying opinions on this issue, no studies have evaluated how beliefs about the illness change based upon the type of name used for diagnostic purposes. Proposals have been put forth ...

Abstract Exploiting plants by-product properties for combined crop growth regulation and pest management could represent a strategy more sustainable agriculture. The present study investigated the potential activity (at different product concentrations) of novel pine wood distillate (PWD) obtained as an industrial by-product, on multiple targets in agroecosystem. In weed species, Sylibum marian...

to start with, having employed transformation wave, some nonlinear partial differential equations have been converted into an ode. then, using the infinite series method for equations with similar linear part, the researchers have earned the exact soliton solutions of the selected equations. it is required to state that the infinite series method is a well-organized method for obtaining exact s...

Object matching is a fundamental problem that arises in numerous information integration scenarios. Virtually all existing solutions to this problem have assumed that the objects to be matched share the same set of attributes, and that they can be matched by comparing the similarities of the attributes. We consider the more general problem where the objects can also have disjoint attributes, su...

A study is presented of fully discretized lattice equations associated with the KdV hierarchy. Loop group methods give a systematic way of constructing discretizations of the equations in the hierarchy. The lattice KdV system of Nijhoff et al. arises from the lowest order discretization of the trivial, lowest order equation in the hierarchy, bt = bx. Two new discretizations are also given, the ...

OBJECTIVE In many departments of General Practice (GP) in Germany, young doctors who are trainees also work as researchers. Often these trainees work part time at the university and part time as a trainee in clinical practice. However, little is known about the situation of the actors involved. The aim of the study was to investigate the perspectives of GP trainees, heads of departments and GP ...

We studied the effects of a single ketamine injection in an experimental model of chronic hypernatraemia in rats. Three groups, each of 20 male Wistar rats were chosen for the experiment; the control group was given water and the test groups were given 1% (group 1) and 2% (group 2) NaCl solutions for two weeks. All groups were fed with the same diet, containing about 0.5% salt. Other living con...
