In this paper, some results of Singh, Gopalakrishna and Kulkarni (1970s) have been extended to higher order derivatives. It has been shown that, if $sumlimits_{a}Theta(a, f)=2$ holds for a meromorphic function $f(z)$ of finite order, then for any positive integer $k,$ $T(r, f)sim T(r, f^{(k)}), rrightarrowinfty$ if $Theta(infty, f)=1$ and $T(r, f)sim (k+1)T(r, f^{(k)}), rrightarrowinfty$ if $Th...

In this paper a weigh ted index measure of money using the ‘Divisia’ formulation is constructed for the Taiwan economy and its in ation forecasting potential is compared with that of it s traditional simple sum counterpar t . This research extends an earlier s tudy by Gazely and Binner by examining the theory that rapid Ž nancial innovation, par ticularly during the Ž nancial liberalization of...

Objective(s) Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a complex disease with multifactorial etiology. Inflammation has been proven to have an important role in the pathogenesis of AD. Both CCR2 and CCR5 genes expression increase in AD patients comparing to control subjects. CCR5 gene encodes a protein which is a member of the beta chemokine receptors family of integral membrane proteins. CCR5-Δ32 is a gene...

One of the most serious neurodegenerative disorders is Alzheimer disease (AD). As the population is aging and due to the fact that AD is more common in aged people, more attention must be paid to this disease. One of the main characteristics of AD is dementia which starts with loss of short term memory, then progresses and causes various brain dysfunctions such as loss of long term memory. Inte...

According to classical GR, Anti-de Sitter (AdS) bubbles in the multiverse terminate in big crunch singularities. It has been conjectured, however, that the fundamental theory may resolve these singularities and replace them by nonsingular bounces. This may have important implications for the beginning of the multiverse. Geodesics in cosmological spacetimes are known to be past-incomplete, as lo...
