Annals of Ibadan Postgraduate Medicine. Vol. 14 No. 2, December 2016 56 Prior to the beginning of the 20th Century, infectious diseases accounted for high morbidity and mortality worldwide. The average life expectancy at birth was 47 years (46 and 48 years for men and women respectively) even in the industrialized world. Infectious diseases such as smallpox, cholera, diphtheria, pneumonia, typh...

Academic pursuits are inseparable from the medium within which they take place - life. The lives of medical trainees can present many challenges that are independent of academic demands. Poor psychological health has been found to develop in medical trainees. Can medical educators minimize this decline in well-being? Positive education - learning skills for traditional academia and to foster ha...

SYSTEM R is a variant of the original STRIPS by Fikes and Nilsson (1971) (called forwardchaining, recursive STRIPS in Nilsson [1998]). Briefly speaking, given a conjunction of simple goals, it selects one of them to work on. If there is an action that is executable and will make this simple goal true once executed, then it does this action and then tries to achieve the other simple goals in the...

suppose that $h$ is a subgroup of $g$‎, ‎then $h$ is said to be‎ ‎$s$-permutable in $g$‎, ‎if $h$ permutes with every sylow subgroup of‎ ‎$g$‎. ‎if $hp=ph$ hold for every sylow subgroup $p$ of $g$ with $(|p|‎, ‎|h|)=1$)‎, ‎then $h$ is called an $s$-semipermutable subgroup of $g$‎. ‎in this paper‎, ‎we say that $h$ is partially $s$-embedded in $g$ if‎ ‎$g$ has a normal subgroup $t$ such that $ht...

‎for any group $g$‎, ‎we define an equivalence relation $thicksim$ as below‎: ‎[forall g‎, ‎h in g gthicksim h longleftrightarrow |g|=|h|]‎ ‎the set of sizes of equivalence classes with respect to this relation is called the same-order type of $g$ and denote by $alpha{(g)}$‎. ‎in this paper‎, ‎we give a partial answer to a conjecture raised by shen‎. ‎in fact‎, ‎we show that if $g$ is a nilpote...

Let G be a finite group and C(G) be the family of representative conjugacy classes of subgroups of G. The matrix whose H;K-entry is the number of fixed points of the set G=K under the action of H is called the table of marks of G where H;K run through all elements in C(G). In this paper, we compute the table of marks and the markaracter table of groups of order pqr where p, q, r are prime numbers.

Frames which can be generated by the action of some operators (e.g. translation, dilation, modulation, ...) on a single element $f$ in a Hilbert space, called coherent frames. In this paper, we introduce a class of continuous frames in a Hilbert space $mathcal{H}$ which is indexed by some locally compact group $G$, equipped with its left Haar measure. These frames are obtained as the orbits of ...

The prime graph of a finite group $G$ is denoted by$ga(G)$. A nonabelian simple group $G$ is called quasirecognizable by primegraph, if for every finite group $H$, where $ga(H)=ga(G)$, thereexists a nonabelian composition factor of $H$ which is isomorphic to$G$. Until now, it is proved that some finite linear simple groups arequasirecognizable by prime graph, for instance, the linear groups $L_...
