Abstract The paper provides a critical analysis of Modern Monetary Theory (MMT). Facing the current macroeconomic problems supply shocks caused by Corona pandemic and war in Ukraine its consequences on inflation, authors ask whether MMT could seriously influence policymaking. Based brief historical roots MMT, show substantial economic with this theory. Especially non-consideration inflation iss...

background: drug abuse is a major health problem in many countries. noticing the different patterns of drug abuse in different areas, we evaluated the epidemiology of drug abuse and related factors in fars province, southern iran. materials and methods: in a one-year cross-sectional study, from march 21st, 2009 to 2010, all subjects referring to addiction treatment clinic of shiraz university w...

This work evaluated the synergistic effect of citronella essential oil (Ct) and montmorillonite (MMT) (called hybrid compound) incorporated in Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) films at different concentrations (3, 10, 15, 20 wt%). PLA were characterized using X-ray diffraction, SEM, TGA, DSC considering their mechanical properties migration. XRD analysis showed effective interaction between MMT oil. The...

The hardness of the syndrome decoding problem (SDP) is primary evidence for security code-based cryptosystems, which are one finalists in a project to standardize post-quantum cryptography conducted by U.S. National Institute Standards and Technology (NIST-PQC). Information set (ISD) general term algorithms that solve SDP efficiently. In this paper, we concrete analysis time complexity latest I...

BACKGROUND Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) coinfection is a major global health problem especially among people who inject drugs (PWID), with significant clinical implications. Mathematical models have been used to great effect to shape HIV care, but few have been proposed for HIV/HCV. METHODS We constructed a deterministic compartmental ODE model that incorpora...

A facile and environmentally friendly method was introduced to incorporate montmorillonite (MMT) as an inorganic phase into quaternized hemicelluloses (QH) for forming hemicellulose-based films. Two fillers, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and chitin nanowhiskers (NCH), were added into the hemicelluloses/MMT hybrid matrices to prepare hybrid films, respectively. The hybrid films were nanocomposites wit...

In recent years, a lot of efforts have been made toward developing new methods for treating drug addicts. The present study aims to compare the effectiveness of the drug addiction treatment methods used for the addicts at the drug addiction treatment center of Jahrom, Iran in 2014. The present study is a retrospective cohort study whose population consisted of all the individuals who were under...

Symbolic and logic computation systems ranging from computer algebra systems to theorem provers are finding their way into science, technology, mathematics and engineering. But such systems rely on explicitly or implicitly represented mathematical knowledge that needs to be managed to use such systems effectively. While mathematical knowledge management (MKM) “in the small” is wellstudied, scal...

To date, no studies have examined loneliness in Chinese patients with substance use disorders. This study determined the prevalence and socio-demographic and clinical correlates of loneliness and its impact on quality of life (QOL) in Chinese heroin-dependent patients (HDPs) receiving methadone maintenance treatment (MMT). A total of 603 HDPs were consecutively recruited from three city-owned M...

BACKGROUND Integrating and decentralizing services are essential to increase the accessibility and provide comprehensive care for methadone patients. Moreover, they assure the sustainability of a HIV/AIDS prevention program by reducing the implementation cost. This study aimed to measure the preference of patients enrolling in a MMT program for integrated and decentralized MMT clinics and then ...
