For certain security applications, including identity based encryption and short signature schemes, it is useful to have abelian varieties with security parameters that are neither too small nor too large. Supersingular abelian varieties are natural candidates for these applications. This paper determines exactly which values can occur as the security parameters of supersingular abelian varieti...

There have been few studies of psychopathology in adult with autism. This study examined psychiatric co-morbidity in 147 adults with intellectual disability (ID) and autism and 605 adults with ID but without autism. After controlling for the effects of gender, age, psychotropic medication and level of ID, people with autism and ID were no more likely to receive a psychiatric diagnosis than peop...

Inhibitor of differentiation/DNA binding (Id) proteins are transcription factors, involved in cell cycle regulation and neoangiogenesis. Using immunohistochemistry, we investigated the prognostic influence of Id-1, Id-2, and Id-3 expression in 89 patients with cervical cancer stage pT(1b). In univariate and multivariate analysis, patients with strong or moderate expression of Id-1 had a signifi...

We describe a mechanical approach to derive identity-based (ID-based) protocols from existing Diffie–Hellman-based ones. As case studies, we present the ID-based versions of the Unified Model protocol, UMP-ID, Blake-Wilson, Johnson & Menezes (1997)’s protocol, BJM-ID, and Krawczyk (2005)’s HMQV protocol, HMQV-ID. We describe the calculations required to be modified in existing proofs. We conclu...

EFSA Panel on Dietetic Products, Nutrition and Allergies (NDA); Scientific Opinion on the substantiation of health claims related to L-carnitine and faster recovery from muscle fatigue after exercise (ID 738, 1492, 1493), skeletal muscle tissue repair (ID 738, 1492, 1493), increase in endurance capacity (ID 4305, 4684), maintenance of normal blood LDL-cholesterol concentrations (ID 1494, 4684),...

background gastric dysplasia (gd) is a precursor lesion of gastric adenoâ­carcinoma. intestinal type gastric carcinoma commonly shows microsatellite instability (msi) and the diffuse type is associâ­ated with down regulation of e-cadherin. her-2/neu is over-expressed in some cases of gastric cancer. in this study, msi and expression rates of her-2/neu and e-cadherin in gd were evaluated. me t h...
