Background: The present study aimed to investigate the Nailfold Capillaroscopy (NC) features of the patients with dermatomyositis (DM) and its correlation with their disease activity indices, physical findings, and laboratory results. Methods: The present cross-sectional study was conducted on 27 DM patients above 16 years old who had referred to an(there are 3 clinics not one) outpatient rh...

electrospinning was applied to nitrocellulose (nc) solutions  in dmf, dmso  and  ethyl  methyl  keton  to  obtain  nc  nanofibers. electrospraying  process  was  observed  when  dmf  was  used  as solvent.  in  comparison  to nc/dmf, nc/dmso  solution  resulted  in the  formation  of  a  coating  film  as  indicate  by  sem.  two  different electrospun  nanofibers,  smooth  nanofibers  with  90...

We show that the product of n 3 3 matrices of n-bit integers can be computed in P -uniform FNC1. Since this problem is complete [BOC92] for formul in f+; g on n-bit integers, we conclude that \algebraic NC1" on integers is equal to the usual Boolean notion of NC1 functions.

7. Let G be a group of finite order and identity e. Suppose that φ is an automorphism of G onto itself with the following properties: (1) φ(x) = x if and only if x = e; (2) φ(φ(x)) = x for each element x of G. (The mapping φ has the property that it is one-one onto and that φ(xy) = φ(x)φ(y) for each pair x, y of elements of G.) (a) Give an example of a group and automorphism for which these con...

We study the set S nc(p, q) of annular non-crossing permutations of type B, and we introduce a corresponding set NC(p, q) of annular non-crossing partitions of type B, where p and q are two positive integers. We prove that the natural bijection between S nc(p, q) and NC (p, q) is a poset isomorphism, where the partial order on S nc(p, q) is induced from the hyperoctahedral group Bp+q, while NC ...

We show that excited baryons in large Nc QCD form multiplets, within which masses are first split at O(1/Nc). The dominant couplings of resonances to various mesons are highly constrained: The N(1535) decays at leading 1/Nc order exclusively to η-N rather than π-N , and vice versa for the N(1650). This multiplet structure is reproduced by a simple large Nc quark model, well studied in the liter...

An NC 1 circuit for division of binary numbers is presented. By results of Beame, Cook and Hoover this also shows that iterated product and powering are in NC 1 , and by a result of Borodin all three operations are in log-space. This settles an open issue in parallel and space bounded arithmetic complexity.
