Let b and c be fixed coprime odd positive integers with min{b, c} > 1. In this paper, a classification of all positive integer solutions (x, y, z) of the equation 2 (x) + b (y) = c (z) is given. Further, by an elementary approach, we prove that if c = b + 2, then the equation has only the positive integer solution (x, y, z) = (1,1, 1), except for (b, x, y, z) = (89,13,1, 2) and (2 (r) - 1, r + ...

Abstract BACKGROUND Very early onset inflammatory bowel disease (VEOIBD) is defined as prior to age 6. VEOIBD monogenic in >5% of cases; however, the remaining cases, molecular basis unknown. We aimed utilize bulk RNA-seq blood 1) define transcriptional signatures established IBD and 2) inform novel diagnoses. METHODS sequenced transcriptomes 115 whole samples, comprising patients with a...

three separate experiments were conducted to investigate micropropagation of four pear cultivars. in the first trial, the effect of four cultural media (ms, ms/2, msn/2 and mql) were compared on such traits as shoot length, shoot number and color of leaf. from among the media, ms/2 and msn/2 resulted in the most shoot proliferation and the longest shoots respectively. ms medium produced green d...

Calcium phosphate was encapsulated into mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN). The effect of pH on the structure and morphology MSN release calcium from investigated. Epoxy coatings with (3 wt%) non-encapsulated wt% 5 were formulated their anti-corrosive performance evaluated by open circuit potential (OCP) electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. Results showed that encapsulati...

Experience in setting up a workflow from scanned images of mathematical writings into a fully fledged mathematical library is described on the example of the project Czech Digital Mathematics Library DML-CZ. An overview of the whole process is given, with detailed description of production steps involving scanned image processing and optical character recognition. Experience gained, lessons lea...

We previously characterized 1-ethyl-2-benzimidazolinone (1-EBIO), as well as the clinically useful benzoxazoles, chlorzoxazone (CZ), and zoxazolamine (ZOX), as pharmacological activators of the intermediate-conductance Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channel, hIK1. The mechanism of activation of hIK1, as well as the highly homologous small-conductance, Ca(2+)-dependent K(+) channel, rSK2, was determined ...

• The effect of point defects on the electronic and magnetic properties MoSi 2 N 4 monolayer was investigated. H, O, F atoms are considered as adsorbed atoms; As, Ge, P, O substitutional doped single double vacancies typical defects. H adsorption O/P structures shows reversible n–p conduction type switching. Single Si well Si+N vacancy cases structures, while Mo is a semiconductor. two dimensio...

Even though cancer treatment has improved over the recent decades, still more specific and effective treatment concepts are mandatory. Surgical removal is not always possible, metastases are challenging and chemo- and radiotherapy can not only have severe side-effects but also resistances may occur. To cope with these challenges more efficient therapies with fewer side-effects are required. One...
