The approach of two different ionization techniques including electrospray ionization (ESI) and atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) coupled with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was tested for the analysis of cholesteryl esters (CEs). The retention time (RT), signal intensity, protonated ion, and product ion of CEs were compared between ESI and APCI. RT of C...

let $(u_n)$ be a sequence of fuzzy numbers.  we recover the slow oscillation of $(u_n)$ of fuzzy numbers from the ces`{a}ro summability of its generator sequence and some additional conditions imposed on $(u_n)$. further, fuzzy analogues of some well known classical tauberian theorems for ces`{a}ro summability method are established as particular cases.

INTRODUCTION Correlation between magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and clinical features in cauda equina syndrome (CES) is unknown; nor is known whether there are differences in MRI spinal canal size between lumbar herniated disc patients with CES versus lumbar herniated discs patients without CES, operated for sciatica. The aims of this study are 1) evaluating the association of MRI features wi...

Brassinosteroids (BRs) are steroid hormones that are essential for plant growth. Responses to these hormones are mediated by transcription factors of the bri1-EMS suppressor 1/brassinazole resistant 1 subfamily, and BRs activate these factors by impairing their inhibitory phosphorylation by GSK3/shaggy-like kinases. Here we show that BRs induce nuclear compartmentalization of CESTA (CES), a bas...

We show for CES demands with heterogeneous production costs that profit, revenue, and output distributions lie in the same class as the productivity distribution (e.g., the "Pareto circle"), although the price distribution lies in the inverse class. We relate distribution shapes via the elasticities of their densities. Introducing product quality decouples the CES circle. Then, all distribution...

Considering the crucial role textbook evaluation plays in any educational system, this study evaluated 2 textbook series with respect to the identity options they offer to Iranian learners of English. Data were gathered based on reading passages, dialogues, and pictures of Right Path to English (RPE) and Cambridge English for Schools (CES). Although this study is mainly qualitative in nature, q...

Les Lesions Laryngees et oesophayiennes de la maladie herpetique ant ete decrit recem­ment sur 5 cas (Annales de radiologie).  Ces lesions ont evolue vers une stenose orga­nique de l'oesophage dans 3 cas. L'aspzct radiologique de ces stenoses et lear evolution sont tres pronches des stenoses caustiques.  Un cas personnel de stenose oesophagienne de Ce meme type, 3 ans apres une episode aigue ...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW To describe cholesterol embolization syndrome (CES) and its risk factors, pathophysiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis and treatment. RECENT FINDINGS To date, no specific diagnostic test (other than biopsy) for CES has been developed. Effective treatments for CES are yet to be developed. SUMMARY CES (also referred to as cholesterol crystal embolization, atheromatous e...
