OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of an insulin priming dose with a continuous insulin infusion versus two continuous infusions without a priming dose. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This prospective randomized protocol used three insulin therapy methods: 1) load group using a priming dose of 0.07 units of regular insulin per kg body weight followed by a dose of 0.07...

In this note I show that for most F–finite regular rings R of positive characteristic the localization Rf at an element f ∈ R is generated by f as a DR–module. This generalizes and gives an alternative proof of te results in [1] where the result is proven for the polynomial ring, thereby answering questions raised in [1] affirmatively. The proof given here is a surprisingly simple application o...

Abstract. Coherent unit actions on a binary, quadratic operad were introduced by Loday and were shown by him to give Hopf algebra structures on the free algebras when the operad is also regular with a splitting of associativity. Working with such operads, we characterize coherent unit actions in terms of linear equations of the generators of the operads. We then use these equations to give all ...

The recruitment order of motor units was studied with an electromyographic technique for secure identification of single motor unit potentials. It has been shown in previous studies of normal subjects that the recruitment order in sustained voluntary contraction is predominantly stable, and that motor units which increase slowly in discharge rate with increasing contraction strength and which a...

By a generalized Tannaka-Krein reconstruction we associate to the admissible representions of the category O of a Kac-Moody algebra, and its category of admissible duals a monoid with a coordinate ring. The Kac-Moody group is the Zariski open dense unit group of this monoid. The restriction of the coordinate ring to the Kac-Moody group is the algebra of strongly regular functions introduced by ...

It is shown that the right-adequate duo ring with a nonzero Jacobson radical has stable range one. established class of complete matrices order 2 over elementary divisors Some classes unit-regular and clean are investigated.
