abstract          background and objective: vitamins c and e are  the two main antioxidants involved in prevention of type 2 diabetes, by reducing oxidative stress. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of vitamins c and e supplementation independently, on serum levels of insulin, high sensitivity c-reactive protein (hs-crp) and resistin in people with type 2 diabetes.         metho...

clostridium perfringens is an important cause of bacterial food poisoning worldwide. the disease is caused by c. perfringens enterotoxin (cpe) encoded by cpe gene. the aim of this research was to identify the different types of c. perfringens and the presence of cpe gene in isolated bacteria from broilers’ meat marketed in retail meat shops of mashhad city in northeastern of iran. after isolati...

Image segmentation is an essential issue in image description and classification. Currently, in many real applications, segmentation is still mainly manual or strongly supervised by a human expert, which makes it irreproducible and deteriorating. Moreover, there are many uncertainties and vagueness in images, which crisp clustering and even Type-1 fuzzy clustering could not handle. Hence, Type-...

In this paper‎, ‎making use of a new identity‎, ‎we establish new‎ ‎inequalities of Ostrowski type for the class of preinvex functions and‎ ‎gave some midpoint type inequalities‎.

The C++ language currently does not provide a mechanism for an object to determine its type at runtime. We propose the Dossier class as a standard interface for accessing type information from within a C++ program. We have implemented a tool called mkdossier that automatically generates type information in a form that can be compiled and linked with an application. In the prototype implementati...

‎For the subclasses $mathcal{M}_1$ and $mathcal{M}_2$ of‎ ‎monomorphisms in a concrete category $mathcal{C}$‎, ‎if $mathcal‎{M}_2subseteq mathcal{M}_1$‎, ‎then $mathcal{M}_1$-injectivity‎ ‎implies $mathcal{M}_2$-injectivity‎. ‎The Baer type criterion is about‎ ‎the converse of this fact‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we apply injectivity to the classes of $C$-dense‎, ‎$C$-closed‎ ‎monomorphisms‎. ‎The con...

The title compound, neodymium sesquiselenide, is isotypic with the other known rare-earth metal(III) selenides M(2)Se(3) (M = La-Pr and Sm-Lu) with the cubic C-type structure. It adopts a cation-defective Th(3)P(4)-type arrangement with close to 8/9 of the unique neodymium-cation site occupied, leading to the composition Nd(2.667)Se(4) (Z = 4) or Nd(2)Se(3) (Z = 5.333), respectively. The Nd(3+)...
