Aim. To identify the predictors of compliance to gluten free diet in children with celiac disease. Methods. 134 children in the study group were assessed for dietary compliance followed by a questionnaire based interview. Psychosocial parameters were assessed by standard Pediatric Symptom Checklist (PSC). Dietary compliant and noncompliant groups were compared and assessed for factors affecting...

In this paper, I investigate how Instagrammers re-construct themselves as agentive and digitally mobile despite their physical immobility during the early COVID-19 pandemic. By examining four types of post that emerged or became popular period, delineate take subject positions to negotiate (im)mobile selfhood in online-offline nexus. contend own invisibility sociality lockdown, bodies are recon...

AlMCM-41 was applied for adsorption of methylene blue (MB) and auramine (AU) in single and binary component systems. In the single component systems, AlMCM-41 represents higher adsorption capacity for MB than AU with the maximal adsorption capacity of 2.07×10−4 and 1.15×10−4 mol/g at 25 ˚C for MB and AU, respectively. In the binary component system, MB and AU exhibit compe...

High-contrast binary images (black and white without shades of gray) were demonstrated to improve face recognition performance by the visually impaired using static images (Peli et al., Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci 1991;32:2337-2350). A binary head-mounted display device has now been adapted to present video in real time for testing as a low vision mobility aid (an electronic telescope). When used...

We provide introductory explanations and illustrations of the N-body hydrodynamics code Charm GrAvity solver (ChaNGa). ChaNGa simulates gravitational motion gas dynamics matter in space with goal modeling galactic and/or cosmological structure evolution. discuss algorithm for leapfrog integration smoothed particle computer science concepts used by program, including binary data positions. Our p...

In this paper we consider an application of the recently proposed quantum hashing technique for computing Boolean functions in the quantum communication model. The combination of binary functions on non-binary quantum hash function is done via polynomial presentation, which we have called a characteristic of a Boolean function. Based on the characteristic polynomial presentation of Boolean func...

Branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) is one of the most common retinal vascular diseases of the elderly that would dramatically impair one’s vision if it is not diagnosed and treated timely. Automatic recognition of BRVO could significantly reduce an ophthalmologist’s workload, make the diagnosis more efficient, and save the patients’ time and costs. In this paper, we propose for the first time...

Speech intelligibility in reverberant environments is reduced because of overlap-masking. Signal modification prior to presentation in such listening environments, e.g., with a public announcement system, can be employed to alleviate this problem. Time-scale modifications are particularly effective in reducing the effect of overlap-masking. A method for introducing linguistically-motivated paus...

When a nil zone is present in the subsurface salt structure, it effectively creates an annihilator of density contrast that gives rise to zero gravity response on the surface. As a result, part of the salt structure is invisible to the surface data and inversion algorithms often have difficulties in recovering the salt structure correctly. We develop a binary inversion technique in which the de...

We compare tractable classes of constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs). We first give a uniform presentation of the major structural CSP decomposition methods. We then introduce a new class of tractable CSPs based on the concept of hypertree decomposition recently developed in Database Theory, and analyze the cost of solving CSPs having bounded hypertree-width. We provide a framework for compa...
