Intervention Participants received dietary supplementation or placebo (after stratifying for prison wing). The supplementation group received a vitamin and mineral supplement based on 100% of the Reference Nutrient Intakes and essential fatty acid supplements in 4 daily capsules (1260 mg linoleic acid; 80 mg gamma linolenic acid; 80 mg eicosapentaenoic acid, and 44 mg docasahexaenoic acid). The...

Recently, a parallel hash function based on chaotic maps with changeable parameters was proposed by Li et al (2011, pp.1305-1312). In this paper, the security of it is analyzed and the weakness of the architecture is pointed out. It is found that the main limitations are the error using of floor, round and exclusive OR operations in the algorithm. In order to counterstrike these, some improveme...

We present the ISO far-IR photometry of a complete sub-sample of optically selected bright quasars belonging to two complete surveys selected through multicolour (U,B,V,R,I) techniques. The ISOPHOT camera on board of the ISO Satellite was used to target these quasars at wavelengths of 7.3, 11.5, 60, 100 and Max-Planck I. für Extraterrestrische Physik, Postfach 1312, 85741 Garching, Germany, ema...

In this paper we study a large market in which sellers compete by offering auctions to buyers instead of simple fixed price contracts. Two variants of the model are studied. One extends a model first analyzed by Wolinsky (Rev. Econ. Stud. 55 (1988), 71 84) in which buyers learn their valuations only after meeting sellers. The other variant extends the model of McAfee (Econometrica 61 (1993), 12...

The determination of iopromide in environmental waters has been accomplished using an Agilent 7700x ICP-MS coupled to an Agilent 1260 LC. The use of High Matrix Introduction (HMI) technology allows for prolonged operation with a sodium hydroxide (NaOH) eluent, and the Octopole Reaction System (ORS3) in helium gas mode reduces polyatomic interferences on iodine (m/z 127). Determination of ioprom...
