Curcumin (from curry) (C) is highly potent against cervical cancer cells (CCC), but poor bioavailability has limited its clinical use. Similar natural polyphenols resveratrol (from grapes) (R), and epicatechin gallate (from green tea) (E) also display activity against CCC. By treating CCC (HeLa) with C, E, or R, or combinations of these compounds, we computed combination indices and observed a ...

In order to enhance the transmission rate, multiple channels and multiple transceivers are employed in wireless mesh networks (WMNs). However, the bandwidth utilization rate is still low, and it is hard to design efficiency MAC. There are mainly three reasons. The first reason is that there are different kinds of nodes in WMN: some nodes are single transceiver and some nodes are multiple transc...

The contingency-competence-control (CCC) model links contingency and competence beliefs to perceived control and, in turn, to depression. However, a developmental perspective suggests that noncontingency may be too abstract a concept to be directly tied to depression before adolescence. We tested the CCC model and this developmental notion, using structural equation modeling, with 360 clinic-re...

Traditional literature on statistical quality control discusses separately multivariate control charts for independent processes and univariate control charts for autocorrelated processes. We extend univariate residual monitoring to the multivariate environment, and propose using vector autoregressive residuals (VAR) to monitor multivariate processes in the presence of serial correlation. We ma...

In some statistical process monitoring applications, quality of a process or product is described by more than one ordinal factors called ordinal multivariate process. To show the relationship between these factors, an ordinal contingency table is used and modeled with ordinal log-linear model. In this paper, a new control charts based on ordinal-normal statistic is developed to monitor the ord...

We show the existence of timelike naked singularities which are not hidden by a horizon and which are associated to spherically symmetric (noncompact) matter sources extending from r = 0 to r = ∞. Our asymptotically flat solutions do represent observable timelike naked singularities where the scalar curvature R and volume mass density ρ(r) are both singular at r = 0. To finalize we explain the ...

Plant growth regulators such as mepiquat chloride (MC) and chlormequat (CCC) are used to establish the balance between vegetative generative in cotton. This study was conducted compare different doses application time of CCC with MC un-treatment (control). The seven treatments including control (non-treatment), T1 (three sprays chloride), T2 (two T3 (0.4 L ha-1 CCC), T4 (0.5 T5 (0.6 CCC) T6 (0....
