Hybrid logic is a form of modal logic which allows reference to worlds. We can think of it as ‘modal logic with labelling built into the object language’ and various forms of labelled deduction have played a central role in its proof theory. Jerry Seligman’s work [13,14] in which ‘rules involving labels’ are rejected in favour of ‘rules for all’ is an interesting exception to this. Seligman’s a...

IN this paper we shall study the connection between local and global nilpotency for groups which satisfy certain chain conditions. In the first section, we shall prove that a group satisfying the chain condition on centralizers has a unique maximal normal nilpotent subgroup (the Fitting subgroup), i.e. the group generated by all normal nilpotent subgroups must again be nilpotent. This generaliz...

We study the intersection of tropical \(\psi\)-classes on heavy/light Hassett spaces, generalising a result Kerber-Markwig for \(M^{\operatorname{trop}}_{0, n}\). Our computation reveals that weight maximal cone in an has combinatorial intepretation terms underlying curve and it is always nonnegative. In particular, our specialises to that, top dimension, product coincides with its classical co...

An oŠoid in a 3-dimensional projective geometry PG(3, q) over the field GF(q), where q is a prime power, is a set of q#­1 points no three of which are collinear. Because of their connections with other combinatorial structures ovoids are of interest to mathematicians in a variety of fields ; for from an ovoid one can construct an inversive plane [3], a generalised quadrangle [11], and if q is e...

The maximal rate of rise in muscle force [rate of force development (RFD)] has important functional consequences as it determines the force that can be generated in the early phase of muscle contraction (0-200 ms). The present study examined the effect of resistance training on contractile RFD and efferent motor outflow ("neural drive") during maximal muscle contraction. Contractile RFD (slope ...

The aim of this study was to explore the significance of different ST-segment changes before and after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), in relation to cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR)-verified microvascular obstruction (MVO) along with intramyocardial hemorrhage (IMH) in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients.This study enrolled 108 STEMI patients who received primary PCI ...

Given an elliptic curve E/Q, the torsion points of E give rise to a natural Galois representation ρE : Gal(Q/Q) → GL2(Ẑ) associated to E. In 1972, Serre showed that [GL2(Ẑ) : Im ρE ] ≥ 2 for all non-CM elliptic curves. The main goal of this paper is to exhibit an elliptic surface such that the Galois representations associated to almost all of the rational specializations have maximal image. Fu...

The interaction between bentonite and tylosin was investigated in broiler chickens, based on pharmacokinetic characteristics obtained in vivo. Simultaneous oral administration of bentonite and tylosin significantly lowered plasma levels of tylosin and reduced the area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC(0-inf)), maximal plasma concentration (C(max)), time to maximal plasma concentrat...

BACKGROUND/AIM Glimepiride, as an antidiabetic from the group of sulfonylurea, is administered perorally in the treatment of diabetes mellitus. The aim of this study was to compare pharmacokinetic profiles and relative bioavailabilities of the two oral formulations of glimepiride, generic and innovator tablets, after a single dose of the active drug. METHODS An oral dose of 6 mg glimepiride w...
