The aim of this study is to examine the validity of the Autism Spectrum Quotient (AQ) to differentiate high-functioning autistic spectrum disorder (ASD) from schizophrenia (SCH). The AQ was developed by Baron-Cohen et al. to measure autistic traits. In addition to the original AQ items, we created self-administered questions about psychotic symptoms (S-scale). We administered the modified AQ to...

Characteristics of primary and recrudescent Plasmodium falciparum infections were evaluated in 25 children who did not recover after amodiaquine (AQ) treatment. Recrudescence was detected by a thick blood smear and confirmed by polymerase chain reaction. Over half of recrudescent events occurred after 14 days of initiation of treatment and were associated with relatively low asexual parasitaemi...

Seaweeds have caused an emerging interest in the biomedical area, mainly due to their contents of bioactive substances which show great potential as anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, anti-viral and anti-tumoral drugs. Despite the diversity in quality and quantity of the Mediterranean Tunisian coast flora, with its large contains of marine organisms and seaweeds, most of them have not yet been ...

Let denote by Fk,n the nth k-Fibonacci number where Fk,n = kFk,n−1+Fk,n−2 for n 2 with initial conditions Fk,0 = 0, Fk,1 = 1, we may derive a functionalequation f(k, x) = kf(k, x − 1) + f(k, x − 2). In this paper, we solve thisequation and prove its Hyere-Ulam stability in the class of functions f : N×R ! X,where X is a real Banach space.

Hydrogen (H2) is an essential substrate for methanogens to produce methane (CH4), and also influences pathways of volatile fatty acids (VFA) production in the rumen. Dissolved H2 (H2 (aq)) is the form of H2 available to microbes, and dissolved CH4 (CH4 (aq)) is important for indicating methanogens activity. Rumen H2 (aq) concentration has been estimated by assuming equilibrium with headspace ga...

Won{Gil Park [Won{Gil Park, J. Math. Anal. Appl., 376 (1) (2011) 193{202] proved the Hyers{Ulam stability of the Cauchy functional equation, the Jensen functional equation and the quadraticfunctional equation in 2{Banach spaces. One can easily see that all results of this paper are incorrect.Hence the control functions in all theorems of this paper are not correct. In this paper, we correctthes...
