We consider the mechanism design problem when agents’ types are multidimensional and continuous, and their valuations are interdependent. If there are at least three agents whose types satisfy a weak correlation condition, then for any decision rule and any ε > 0 there exist balanced transfers that render truthful revelation a Bayesian ε-equilibrium. A slightly stronger correlation condition en...

antidepressant agents inhibit the neuronal reuptake of monoamines such as serotonin (5-ht), noradrenaline (na), and dopamine (da). several clinical and animal studies have advocated the use of these agents in the management of pain. in this study, therefore, the possibility of a correlation between the analgesic activity of six serotonin specific reuptake inhibitor (ssri) antidepressants and th...

This study examined the training needs of agricultural extension agents in Delta State, Nigeria. A sample of 102 respondents was drawn from extension agents in the States’ Agricultural Development Programme (ADP), Ministry of Agriculture and Natural Resources (MANR) and the FADAMA Programme. Data were collected in February 2017 by using a structured and validated questionnaire. Data generated w...

Within a group of cooperating agents the decision making of an individual agent depends on the actions of the other agents. A lot of effort has been made to solve this problem with additional assumptions on the communication abilities of agents. However, in some realworld applications, communication is limited and the assumptions are rarely satisfied. An alternative approach newly developed is ...

tc-99m-ec is a new renal radiopharmaceutical introduced as an alternative for tc-99m mag3. twenty-three normal volunteers and patients in different .stages of renal disease were evaluated with te-99m ec and tc-99m dtpa. the mean initial uptake of ec was significantly higher as compared to dtpa. there was a high correlation between rectangular and hand-drawn rols for kidney and background, 0.96 ...

the major objective in endodontic therapy is to disinfect the entire root canal system. this requires that the pulpal content be eliminated as sources of infection. this goal may be accomplished by mechanical instrumentation and chemical irrigation, in conjunction with medication of the root canal between treatment sessions. microorganisms and their by-products are considered to be the major ca...
