Finite groups have even more centralizers

For a finite group $G$‎, ‎let $Cent(G)$ denote the set of centralizers of single elements of $G$‎. ‎In this note we prove that if $|G|leq frac{3}{2}|Cent(G)|$ and $G$ is 2-nilpotent‎, ‎then $Gcong S_3‎, ‎D_{10}$ or $S_3times S_3$‎. ‎This result gives a partial and positive answer to a conjecture raised by A‎. ‎R‎. ‎Ashrafi [On finite groups with a given number of centralizers‎, ‎Algebra‎ ‎Collo...

Dental caries and background factors in children with heart disease

Congenital heart disease (CHD) is one of the most common congenital anomalies with an incidence of approximately 8–10 cases per 1000 live births. Technical development and continuing improvement in surgical methods have led to early interventions and an increased survival and consequently also a new group of patients in dentistry.
