A critical appraisal and clinical application of Johnson S, Louie TJ, Gerding DN, et al. Vancomycin, metronidazole, or tolevamer for Clostridium difficile infection: results from two multinational, randomized, controlled trials. Clin Infect Dis. 2014;59(3):345-354. doi: 10.1093/cid/ciu313

The approximate number system (ANS) is frequently considered to be a foundation for the acquisition of uniquely human symbolic numerical capabilities. However, the mechanism by which the ANS influences symbolic number representations and mathematical thought remains poorly understood. Here, we tested the relation between ANS acuity, cardinal number knowledge, approximate arithmetic, and symboli...

Yellow raspberry fruits have reduced anthocyanin contents and offer unique possibility to study the genetics of pigment biosynthesis in this important soft fruit. Anthocyanidin synthase (Ans) catalyzes the conversion of leucoanthocyanidin to anthocyanidin, a key committed step in biosynthesis of anthocyanins. Molecular analysis of the Ans gene enabled to identify an inactive ans allele in a yel...

This study measures the influence of pH and polyaluminium chloride (PAC) dosage on the effectiveness of reactive dyes removal. Experiments were carried out for turquoise DG, red DB-8, orange OGR and black DN. The pH was changed from 3.5 to 7.0 and the dosages of PAC from 0.3 to 4.0 mg Al/mg dye. The degree of dyes removal depended on pH and dosage of coagulant. In the pH range from 4.0 to 5.5 t...

Humans and nonhuman animals share an approximate number system (ANS) that permits estimation and rough calculation of quantities without symbols. Recent studies show a correlation between the acuity of the ANS and performance in symbolic math throughout development and into adulthood, which suggests that the ANS may serve as a cognitive foundation for the uniquely human capacity for symbolic ma...

The aim of this paper is to study Hopf bifurcation with Dn-symmetry assuming Birkhoff normal form. We consider the standard action of Dn on C. This representation is absolutely irreducible and so the corresponding Hopf bifurcation occurs on C ⊕ C. Golubitsky and Stewart (Hopf bifurcation with dihedral group symmetry: Coupled nonlinear oscillators. In: Multiparameter Bifurcation Series (M. Golub...

Abstract With increasing and massive photovoltaic (PV) connected to the distribution network(DN), there will be two-way power flow in traditional DN. As one indicator measure maximum amount of active that certain bus network (DN) can injected, hosting capacity DN is a research hotspot. This calculation method presented based on optimal (OPF)model commercial solver. Based branch equation with re...

In the volume 96(1–2) of ‘Precambrian Research’, Beaumont and Robert (1999) presented the first complete study on the nitrogen isotopic composition of kerogens preserved in Archean and Proterozoic rocks. This is an important contribution, which adds compelling data to the rather scarce N isotopic record in Precambrian rocks (Hayes et al., 1983; Gibson et al., 1985, 1986; Zhang, 1988; Sano and P...

HIGHLIGHTS We test whether symbolic number comparison is handled by an analog noisy system.Analog system model has systematic biases in describing symbolic number comparison.This suggests that symbolic and non-symbolic numbers are processed by different systems. Dominant numerical cognition models suppose that both symbolic and non-symbolic numbers are processed by the Analog Number System (ANS...
