Background. The reactive abilities of goalkeepers are crucial and may directly impact match results. Therefore, research on factors that may enhance goalkeeper performances during diving tasks (DT) and how these factors are mediated would provide valuable information for coaches and goalkeepers. Objectives. The purpose of this investigation was to: (i) assess the impact of caffeine consumption...

BACKGROUND Double-triggering (DT) is a frequent type of patient-ventilator asynchrony and has potentially severe consequences, such as alveolar overdistention or the generation of intrinsic PEEP. However, the first breath of DT could be patient-triggered (DT-P), auto-triggered (DT-A), or ventilator-triggered (DT-V). OBJECTIVE To differentiate DT-P, DT-A, and DT-V using airway pressure or flow...

and Applied Analysis 3 Definition 2.2 see 6 . A subset S of a BCI-algebra X is called subalgebra of X if x ∗ y ∈ S whenever x, y ∈ S. For a BCI-algebra X, we denote x ∧ y y ∗ y ∗ x for all x, y ∈ X 6 . For more details we refer to 3, 5, 6 . 3. t-Derivations in a BCI-Algebra/p-Semisimple BCI-Algebra The following definitions introduce the notion of t-derivation for a BCI-algebra. Definition 3.1....

background routine screening for distress is internationally recommended as a necessary standard for good cancer care given its high prevalence and negative consequences on quality of life. this study attempts to support validation of distress thermometer (dt) in shiraz, iran and in the second step to investigate privilege/priority of dt over other referent criterion measures. material and meth...

Crop production in the Southeastern U.S. can be limited by water; thus, supplemental irrigation is needed to sustain profitable crop production. Increased water capture would efficiently improve water use and reduce supplemental irrigation amounts/costs, thus improving producer’s profit margin. We quantified infiltration (INF), runoff (R), and sediment (E) losses from furrow diked (+DT) and non...

 The aim of me present work was to investigate rhe potential utility of nanoparticles made of chitosan (CS) and also CS chemically modified with polyethylene glycol (CS-PEG) as new vehicles for improving na^al vaccine delivery. For mis purpose, diphtheria toxoid (DT) was chosen as a model antigen. DT was entrapped within nanoparticles made of CS of different molecular weight, and also made of C...
