Humans are equipped with an approximate number system (ANS) supporting non-symbolic numerosity representation. Studies indicate a relationship between ANS-precision (acuity) and math achievement. Whether the ANS is a prerequisite for learning mathematics or if mathematics education enhances the ANS remains an open question. We investigated the association between higher education and ANS acuity...

Heart-type fatty-acid-binding protein (FABP3), which is a cytosolic protein abundantly found in cardiomyocytes, plays a role in trafficking fatty acids throughout cellular compartments by reversibly binding intracellular fatty acids with relatively high affinity. The fluorescent probe 1-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonate (ANS) is extensively utilized for examining the interaction of ligands with fa...

BACKGROUND Music can evoke strong emotions and thus elicit significant autonomic nervous system (ANS) responses. However, previous studies investigating music-evoked ANS effects produced inconsistent results. In particular, it is not clear (a) whether simply a musical tactus (without common emotional components of music) is sufficient to elicit ANS effects; (b) whether changes in the tempo of a...

The relationship between approximate number system (ANS) acuity and math performance has recently received a lot of attention. It is still unclear, however, whether the ANS is a prerequisite for math performance or whether training in mathematics could improve ANS acuity. The present study investigated the extent to which mathematics training influences ANS acuity. Participants’ ANS acuity was ...

Let Dn be the unit polydisc of Cn. The class of all holomorphic functions with domain Dn will be denoted by H(Dn). Let φ be a holomorphic self-map of Dn, the composition operator Cφ induced by φ is defined by (Cφ f )(z) = f (φ(z)) for z ∈Dn and f ∈H(Dn). If, in addition, ψ is a holomorphic function defined on Dn, the weighted composition operator ψCφ induced by ψ and φ is defined by ψCφ(z) = ψ(...

La granulomatose avec polyangéite (GPA) est une vascularite nécrosante des vaisseaux de petit calibre. L'âge moyen d'entrée dans la GPA est entre 35 et 55 ans, les formes gériatriques sont cependant rares, Nous rapportons deux cas de GPA révélés après 60 ans, le mode de révélation était inhabituel, ophtalmologique dans le premier cas et cutané dans le deuxième cas. Pan African Medical Journal. ...

L'éléphantiasis vulvo-clitoridien d'origine filarienne est une affection très rare. Nous rapportons un nouveau cas chez une femme de 33 ans suivie dans un service de Maladies Infectieuses pour filariose lymphatique. Elle avait une masse vulvo-clitoridienne qui évoluait depuis plus de 10 ans. Une résection clitoridienne et une plastie vulvaire a été réalisée. Les résultats fonctionnels et esthét...
