BACKGROUND Albuminuria is generally known as a sensitive marker of renal and cardiovascular dysfunction. It can be used to help predict the occurrence of nephropathy and cardiovascular disorders in diabetes. Individuals with prediabetes have a tendency to develop macrovascular and microvascular pathology, resulting in an increased risk of retinopathy, cardiovascular diseases, and chronic renal ...

Although high melamine (MEL) intake has been proven to cause serious health problems, MEL is sometimes illegally added to milk products and animal feed, arousing serious food safety concerns. A satisfactory method of detecting MEL in onsite or in-home testing is in urgent need of development. This work aimed to explore a rapid, convenient, and cost-effective method of identifying MEL in milk pr...

In this work, we define a parabolic equation on digital spaces and study its properties. The equation can be used in investigation of mechanical, aerodynamic, structural and technological properties of a Moebius strip, which is used as a basic element of a new configuration of an airplane wing. Condition for existence of exact solutions by a matrix method and a method of separation of variables...

cage roll forming is one of the new methods of cold roll forming process which is widely used for producing erw pipes. in addition to less production cost and time, using cage roll forming provides smooth deformation on the strip. few studies can be found about cage roll forming because of its complexity, and the available knowledge is more experience-based and not science-based. in this paper,...

Purpose: In the present paper a crack arrest model is proposed for an infinitely long narrow poled piezoelectric strip embedded with a centrally situated finite hairline straight crack. Design/methodology/approach: The ceramic of the strip is assumed to be mechanically brittle and electrically ductile. Combined mechanical and electrical loads applied at the edge of the strip open the rims of th...

In this paper, we propose mixed generalized Hermite-Legendre spectral method for partial differential equation set in an infinite strip. We investigate mixed generalized Hermite-Legendre approximation. We propose the new algorithm for various boundary condition problems with variable coefficient. The global convergence of proposed algorithms is proved. Numerical results demonstrate the spectral...

In this paper we investigate a Dirichlet problem in a strip and, using the sliding method, we prove monotonicity for positive and bounded solutions. We obtain uniqueness of the solution and show that this solution is a function of only one variable. From these qualitative properties we deduce existence of a classical solution for this problem.
