In last years, the debate on the measurement of multidimensional phenomena has caused, within the worldwide scientific Community, a renewed interest thanks to the publication, in September 2009, of the Stiglitz report and, in March 2013, of the first report on “Equitable and Sustainable Well-being” (BES) by the Committee composed by Istat (Italian National Institute of Statistics) and CNEL (Ita...

Platelet aggregation inhibitory effect and anticoagulant properties of fractions separated from the venoms of Cerastes persicus fieldi and Echis carinatus were investigated. The partial fractionation was performed on a Sephadex G-100 column. Two fractions separated from Cerastes persicus fieldi showed anti platelet aggregation activity on ADP (200 µM)-induced platelet aggregation (ca 80% inhibi...

Epidemiologic studies show that the cardiovascular diseases are associated with multiple factors such as raised serum total cholesterol, increased LDL, increased platelet aggregation, hypertension and smoking. In-vitro studies have confirmed the ability of some plants of Allium species to reduce these parameters. Therefore, we evaluated anti-platelet aggregation effect of some Allium species (A...

A series of novel 2-aminopyrimidine and 2-Substituted-4,6-diaminopyrimidine derivatives have been synthesized and their anti platelet aggregation activities were assessed against ADP and arachidonic acid- induced platelet aggregation in human plasma using light transmission aggregometry. None of the compounds showed satisfactory activity against the aggregation induced by ADP. However, satisfac...

datum Basis for measurement of position on the Earth’s surface. discrete object view Conceptualization of geographic phenomena as analogous to a tabletop littered with countable, possibly movable objects. ecological fallacy The fallacy of making inferences about individuals from aggregated data. field view Conceptualization of geographic phenomena as a set of functions over geographic space. ge...

aggregation operators (aos) have been studied by many schol- ars. as many aos are proposed, there is still lacking approach to classify the categories of ao, and to select the appropriate ao within the ao candidates. in this research, each ao can be regarded as a cognitive style or individual dierence. a cognitive style and aggregation operator (csao) model is pro- posed to analyze the mapping ...

Two children with congenital chronic relapsing thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) have episodes every 3 weeks. These relapses can be prevented by the infusion of normal fresh-frozen plasma (FFP) without concurrent plasmapheresis. We conducted a study to determine whether the exposure of normal plasma to agents that inactivate human immunodeficiency virus and other viruses destroys the co...

Phenomena characterized by power-law probability distributions abound in nature and the applied sciences. We show that many of these power laws are well described by the Student, or t, distribution, and we discuss the origin of this universality based on three examples (Brownian motion, Knudsen diffusion in rough pores, and bubbly multiphase flow). These case studies are representative for a la...

Heparin, in Langmuirian fashion, binds stoichiometrically with high affinity, Kd approximately 100 nM, to both fibrinogen and fibrin adsorbed as monomolecular films to lecithin-coated, microscopic, polystyrene-divinylbenzene beads. Complex formation inhibits aggregation of fibrin-coated beads, and it also results in dissociation of preformed aggregates of fibrin-coated beads. These phenomena ar...
