in this paper, we investigate various kinds of extensions of twin-good rings. moreover, we prove that every element of an abelian neat ring r is twin-good if and only if r has no factor ring isomorphic to z2  or z3. the main result of [24] states some conditions that any right self-injective ring r is twin-good. we extend this result to any regular baer ring r by proving that every element of a...

OBJECTIVES The feasibility of providing prolonged and controlled release of the experimental non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor TMC120 from a silicone vaginal ring in quantities sufficient to maintain a vaginal concentration offering protection against heterosexual HIV transmission was investigated. METHODS Core-type, silicone elastomer vaginal rings containing TMC120 were manufac...

0 Introduction In this paper we study, for a certain type of topological rings A, the topological space Cont A of all equivalence classes of continuous valuations of A. The space ContA is defined as follows. Let v: A-+Fw{0} be a valuation of A, where F is an ordered multiplicative group generated by im(v)\{0}. On Fw [0} we introduce the topology such that U _~ F ~ {0} is open iff 0 q~ U or {xeF...

In this paper we define a new type of rings ”almost powerhermitian rings” (a generalization of almost hermitian rings) and establish several sufficient conditions over a ring R such that, every regular matrix admits a diagonal power-reduction.

Crocus sativus L. (saffron) is a widely used food additive for its color and taste. The hypotensive effects of saffron have been shown in previous studies. The aim of this study was to evaluate the mechanism of vasodilatory effects induced by saffron on isolated rat aorta.To study the vasodilatory effects of saffron aqueous extract (0.5, 1 and 2 mg/mL), isolated rat thoracic aorta rings were co...
