In this study, we compared the responsiveness and validity of the Box and Block Test (BBT), the Nine-Hole Peg Test (NHPT), and the Action Research Arm Test (ARAT). We randomized 59 patients with stroke into one of three rehabilitation treatments for 3 weeks. We administered six outcome measures (BBT, NHPT, ARAT, Fugl-Meyer Assessment [FMA], Motor Activity Log [MAL], and Stroke Impact Scale [SIS...

Let f be an entire function, f(0) = 1, F(z) zf′ (z)/f(z), and Γm $$\bigcup_{j=1}^{m}\left\{z:\mathrm{arg}z={\psi }_{j}\right\},$$ 0 ≤ ψ1 < ψ2 ...< ψm 2π. An function is called a of improved regular growth if for some ρ ∈ (0;+∞) ρ2 (0; ρ), 2π-periodic ρ-trigonometrically convex h(φ) ≢ −∞, there exists set U ⊂ $${\mathbb{C}}$$ contained in the union disks with finite sum radii such that $$\begin{...

Assuming the Riemann hypothesis and Montgomery's Pair Correlation Conjecture, we investigate distribution of sequences $(\log|\zeta(\rho+z)|)$ $(\arg\zeta(\rho+z)).$ Here $\rho=\frac12+i\gamma$ runs over nontrivial zeros zeta-function, $0<\gamma \leq T,$ $T$ is a large real number, $z=u+iv$ nonzero complex number modulus $\ll 1/\log T.$ Our approach proceeds via study integral moments these seq...

The GDP dissociation inhibitors (GDIs) are pivotal regulators of Rho GTPase function. GDIs control the access of Rho GTPases to regulatory guanine nucleotide exchange factors and GTPase-activating proteins, to effector targets and to membranes where such effectors reside. We discuss here our current understanding of how Rho GTPase-GDI complexes are regulated by various proteins, lipids and enzy...

We study the submonolayer diffusion of hard disks and rodlike molecules on smooth surfaces through numerical simulations and theoretical arguments. We concentrate on the behavior of the various diffusion coefficients as a function of the two-dimensional (2D) number density rho in the case where there are no explicit surface-particle interactions. For the hard disk case, we find that while the t...

For a split reductive group $G$ over number field $k$, let $\rho$ be an $n$-dimensional complex representation of its dual $G^\vee(\mathbb{C})$. any irreducible cuspidal automorphic $\sigma$ $G(\mathbb{A})$, where $\mathbb{A}$ is the ring adeles in \cite{JL21}, authors introduce $(\sigma,\rho)$-Schwartz space $\mathcal{S}_{\sigma,\rho}(\mathbb{A}^\times)$ and $(\sigma,\rho)$-Fourier operator $\...

Rho GAPs are important regulators of Rho GTPases, which are involved in various steps of cytokinesis and other processes. However, regulation of Rho-GAP cellular localization and function is not fully understood. Here we report the characterization of a novel coiled-coil protein Rng10 and its relationship with the Rho-GAP Rga7 in fission yeast. Both rng10Δ and rga7Δ result in defective septum a...

Pollard rho method and its parallelized variants are at present known as the best generic algorithms for computing elliptic curve discrete logarithms. We propose new iteration function for the rho method by exploiting the fact that point halving is more efficient than point addition for elliptic curves over binary fields. We present a careful analysis of the alternative rho method with new iter...
