In this article we give a characterization of monoids for which torsion freeness, ((principal) weak, strong) flatness, equalizer flatness or Condition (E) of finitely generated and (mono) cyclic acts and Condition (P) of finitely generated and cyclic acts implies regularity. A characterization of monoids for which all (finitely generated, (mono) cyclic acts are regular will be given too. We als...

This study examined how instigators of abuse used emotionally abusive messages to manipulate politeness attack their partners' face. Additionally, we studied the people experiencing responded such messages. Using thematic co-occurrence analysis (TCA), analyzed 20 semi-structured interviews with those who have experienced abuse.

The pincer holds all significant acts or events involve either present luck, constitutive both each negate moral responsibility. Therefore, any action event. I argue unsound as its premises are false. First, not Some non...

Atherosclerosis is a chronic immune inflammatory disease. Atherosclerosis and relevant disease are threatening human life and health. Oxygenized low density lipoprotein (oxLDL) is a molecular basis in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and able to induce inflammation, stimulate immune system and interfere with lipid metabolism in the occurrence and development of atherosclerosis. Antibody agai...

Caregivers of older adults with dementia face significant challenges associated with their care recipients' condition and with their own mental and physical well-being. Qualitative research data were collected via interviews with caregivers who participated in the African-American Alzheimer's Caregiver Training and Support (ACTS) research project. Analysis of these data with a focus on informat...

Sir, Infantile haemangioma is a fairly common vascular tumour of the skin in infancy. In contrast, infantile subglottic haemangioma is rare, accounting for about 1.5% of all congenital laryngeal anomalies (1). However, it often causes stridor in infancy and sometimes leads to life-threatening respiratory distress (2). We report here a case of infantile haemangiomas on the face, neck and chest t...

Pulmonary torsion is a severe, life-threatening event, rarely occurring in children. We present a case of atypical postoperative complication of esophageal atresia repair in the form of pulmonary torsion comprising the middle lobe of the right lung. Clinical deterioration in the face of normal arterial blood gases should rise a high index of suspicion for pulmonary torsion. Early diagnosis is c...
