BACKGROUND Literature reports suggest that phytochemicals, such as isoflavones found in soybeans, impair reproductive function in animals and raise the possibility that consuming soy infant formula could alter hormonally sensitive organ development in children. OBJECTIVE This study compared reproductive organs volumes and structural characteristics in children at age 5 y who were enrolled in ...

In this paper, a reliable and efficient structural analysis method for mathematical formulae is proposed for practical mathematical OCR. The proposed method consists of three steps. In the first step, a fast structural analysis algorithm is performed on each mathematical formula to obtain a tree representation of the formula. This step generally provides a correct tree representation but someti...

The paper presents numerical simulations performed on dielectric properties of two-dimensional binary composites on eleven regular space filling tessellations. First, significant contributions of different parameters, which play an important role in the electrical properties of the composite, are introduced both for designing and analyzing material mixtures. Later, influence of structural diffe...

Object-oriented scripting languages like JavaScript are popular, in part because of their dynamic features. These include the runtime modification of objects and classes, through addition of fields or updating of methods. These features make static typing difficult and usually dynamic typing is used. Consequently, errors such as access to non-existent members, are not detected until runtime. We...

Purpose To determine where, when, how, and wherefore European social theory hit upon the formula of “the True, the Good, and the Beautiful,” and how its structural position as a skeleton for the theory of

We present a combined in vitro/in silico study to determine the molecular origin of the selectivity of [Formula: see text]-tocopherol transfer protein ([Formula: see text]-TTP) towards [Formula: see text]-tocopherol. Molecular dynamics simulations combined to free energy perturbation calculations predict a binding free energy for [Formula: see text]-tocopherol to [Formula: see text]-TTP 8.26[Fo...

Both the quality of the results of TEX s formula layout algorithm and the complexity of its description in the TEXbook are hard to beat The algorithm is verbally described as an imperative program with very complex control ow and complicated manipulations of the data structures representing formulae In a forthcoming textbook we describe TEX s formula layout algorithm as a functional program tra...
