l=1 σlulv T l (1) ∀ l σl ∈ R, σl ≥ 0 (2) ∀ l, l 〈ul, ul′〉 = 〈vl, vl′〉 = δ(l, l) (3) To prove this consider the matrix AA ∈ R. Set ul to be the l’th eigenvector of AA . By definition we have that AAul = λlul. Since AA T is positive semidefinite we have λl ≥ 0. Since AA is symmetric we have that ∀ l, l 〈ul, ul′〉 = δ(l, l). Set σl = √ λl and vl = 1 σl Aul. Now we can compute the following: 〈vl, vl...

This study evaluates stroke patients with upper-limb (UL) motor deficits using measures of impairment and "activity limitation" to quantify recovery of UL function poststroke and to identify predictors of UL function and predictors of UL recovery following stroke. The study also compares the recovery of UL function with that of the lower limb (LL). Measures of impairment and "activity limitatio...

Previous studies have reported that uterine leiomyoma (UL) may share pathogenic features with obesity and hypertension, which are components of metabolic syndrome (MetS). We examined the association between UL and MetS in premenopausal parous women.This 1:1 case-control study was conducted on 615 asymptomatic women with UL and 615 women without UL that were matched for age, reproductive history...

Saturation is (μ, κ)-transferable in T if and only if there is an expansion T1 of T with |T1| = |T | such that if M is a μ-saturated model of T1 and |M | ≥ κ then the reduct M ↾ L(T ) is κ-saturated. We characterize theories which are superstable without f.c.p., or without f.c.p. as, respectively those where saturation is (א0, λ)-transferable or (κ(T ), λ)-transferable for all λ. Further if for...

In the present work we argue that the usual assumption that magnetic currents possess the vector structure characteristic of electric currents may be the source of several difficulties in the theory of magnetic monopoles. We propose an axial magnetic current instead and show that such difficulties are solved. Charge quantization is shown to be intimately connected with results of theories of di...

Uterine leiomyomata (UL), the most common neoplasm in reproductive-age women, are classified into distinct genetic subgroups based on recurrent chromosome abnormalities. To develop a molecular signature of UL with t(12;14)(q14-q15;q23-q24), we took advantage of the multiple UL arising as independent clonal lesions within a single uterus. We compared genome-wide expression levels of t(12;14) UL ...

background: uterine leiomyoma (ul) is a benign tumor of uterine smooth muscle that affects women in reproductive ages. fas has an important role in initial stages of apoptosis. previous studies have shown an association between the fas gene and tumorigenesis. in the present study, we evaluated the relationship between fas a-670g (rs 1800682) and ul risk. methods: the fas gene polymorphism of 15...

e human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), associated with the development of malignancies, encodes the constitutively active G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) UL andUS. AsUS possesses oncogenic properties and is expressed inCMV positive human glioblastomas, we set out to investigate the signaling properties of UL. US expression is detected early aer infection, whereas UL is expressed at l...

BACKGROUND Previous studies have found a positive association between hypertension and risk of hysterectomy-confirmed uterine leiomyomata (UL). The association of hypertension with UL confirmed by ultrasound or other surgery is less clear. METHODS The present study evaluated the association of hypertension with UL incidence according to confirmation method (hysterectomy, other surgery or ultr...
