We consider 3-Jordan algebras, i.e., the nonassociative commutative algebras satisfying (x^3 y)x=x^3(yx). The variety of 3-Jordan algebras contains all Jordan algebras and all pseudo-composition algebras. We prove that a simple 3-Jordan algebra with idempotent is either a Jordan algebra or a pseudo-composition algebra. Disciplines Algebra | Mathematics Comments This article is published as Hent...

length of hospital stay (los) is a key indicator for hospital management. reducing hospital stay is a priority for all health systems. we aimed to determine the length of hospital stay following coronary artery bypass surgery (cabg) based on its clinical and non-clinical factors. a cross-sectional study of 649 consecutive patients who underwent coronary artery bypass graft surgery was conducted...
