It is proposed to use quantum-like models with the of status functions for mathematical modeling and subsequent analysis complex socio-economic systems. The limitations methods classical probability theory statistics, as well fuzzy sets, algorithms Mamdani, Suzuki others solving similar problems are described. A description main assumptions that used in objects based on given. Examples consider...

BACKGROUND Small airways play important roles in the pathophysiology of asthma. However, relationships between small airway involvement and health status and dyspnea have not been investigated. OBJECTIVES It was the aim of this study to assess the relationships between proximal and peripheral airway functions and health status, dyspnea and disease control in patients with asthma, using impuls...

BACKGROUND Previous studies have reported an association between executive dysfunction and the ability to perform activities of daily living (ADL)s among older adults. This study aims to examine the association between executive functions and functional status in a cross-section of older adults with varying degrees of cognitive impairment. METHODS 89 individuals (mean age 73.8 years) were rec...

We review the status of the calculation of the time-like splitting functions for the evolution of fragmentation functions to the next-to-next-to-leading order in perturbative QCD. By employing relations between space-like and time-like deep-inelastic processes, all quark-quark and the gluon-gluon time-like splitting functions have been obtained to three loops. The corresponding quantities for t...

Selenium functions as a part of proteins known as selenoproteins. Through these selenoproteins, selenium functions as a defensive mechanism for oxidative stress, for the regulation of thyroid hormone activity, and for the redox status of vitamin C and other molecules. In several of its roles, selenium functions as a dietary antioxidant and thus has been studied for its possible role in chronic ...

In the past decade, language functions have attracted increasing attention of Chinese secondary school English teachers. However, students seem not to have explicit knowledge in this aspect. This study investigated Chinese students’ awareness of functions and explored the causes of the status quo. Based on the results achieved through a questionnaire survey, textbooks analyses and teaching anal...

This paper shows the recent standardization activities on Ethernet OAM functions. First, it briefly introduces recent carrier class Ethernet services indicating their characteristics and operational issues. Then, it explains current standardization status on Ethernet OAM functions. Finally it shows the requirements for Ethernet OAM functions and details of the OAM mechanisms currently being sta...

In the field of Geometric Function Theory, one can not deny the importance of analytic and univalent functions. The characteristics of these functions including their taylor series expansion, their coefficients in these representations as well as their associated functional inequalities have always attracted the researchers. In particular, Fekete-Szegö inequality is one of such vastly studied a...
