Recent studies have reported inconsistent results on the association between sleep duration and the risk of fatty liver disease (FLD). Thus, we quantitatively evaluated this association by performing a systematic review and meta-analysis, based on a comprehensive electronic search in databases of PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, ClinicalTrials.gov, Wanfangdata and Chinese National Knowledge Infr...

somatic embryos of persian walnut were transformed with two strains of agrobacterium tumefaciens i.e. lba4404 and c58, and two plasmids, namely, pbi121 with nptii and gus genes for improving the transformation protocol, and p6u-ubi-fvti plasmid containing the hpt and fld genes. the transformation frequency was 10%. pcr and rt-pcr analysis proved the presence and expression of the genes. the tra...

We provide a non-asymptotic analysis of the generalisation error of compressive Fisher linear discriminant (FLD) classification that is dimension free under mild assumptions. Our analysis includes the effects that random projection has on classification performance under covariance model misspecification, as well as various good and bad effects of random projections that contribute to the overa...

the forming limit diagram (fld) is a useful method for characterizing the formability of sheet metals. in this paper, different numerical models were used to investigate the fld of tailor welded blank (twb). twbs were co2 laser-welded samples of interstitial-free (if) steel sheets with different thicknesses. the results of the numerical models were compared with the experimental fld as well as ...

This paper describes a new steganography algorithm based on a steerable pyramid transform of a digital image and the steganalysis of the existence of secret messages hidden by this new method. The data embedding process uses the elements of a Lee and Chen steganography algorithm which is adapted to the steerable pyramid transform domain. This article describes the Fisher Linear Disriminant (FLD...

Seven typical cases of dementia with motor neuron disease (D-MND) are reported. Among 1,000 dementia cases, D-MND was more frequent than Pick's disease, Lewy body disease or Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. D-MND accounted for 30.4% of all forms of frontal lobe dementia (FLD) including FLD and Pick's disease. These data support that this combined syndrome may be more frequent than previously reported...
