Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is adisorder of hyperandrogenemia and chronic anovulation which affects 5-10% of all women. It has been reported that women with PCOS often have serum lipid level elevation. This study compares serum lipid levels in women with and without polycystic ovary syndrome. Materials and Methods: In this comparative-cross sectional study, lipid profiles (Tota...

We examined the migratory properties of the mouse serum protein responsible for specific neutralization of the endogenous mouse xenotropic type C virus and demonstrated that this neutralizing factor can be transferred from mouse lipoproteins to human and to nonreactive mouse lipoproteins. After acceptance of this activity by these lipoproteins, it could be back-transferred to human and to mouse...

The aim of the present paper is to derive some new properties of analytic functions defined by the linear operator ), ( ) , ( z f c a Lp using differential subordinations techniques. Mathematics Subject Classification: 30C45

In the present paper we studied the properties of them−projective curvature tensor in LP-Sasakian, Einstein LP-Sasakian and η−Einstein LPSasakian manifolds.

Let (X, ρ), (Y, σ) be metric spaces and f : X → Y an injective mapping. We put ‖f‖Lip = sup{σ(f(x), f(y))/ρ(x, y); x, y ∈ X, x 6= y}, and dist(f) = ‖f‖Lip .‖f ‖Lip (the distortion of the mapping f). Some Ramsey-type questions for mappings of finite metric spaces with bounded distortion are studied; e.g., the following theorem is proved: Let X be a finite metric space, and let ε > 0, K be given ...

We suggest a new scheme to create chirped microbend long period gratings. Employing this scheme, the bandwidth of mode conversion between LP01 to LP11 is increased 4.8-fold with a conversion efficiency of 20 dB. This scheme includes a first time demonstration of a non-linearly chirped long period grating. The scheme is investigated both numerically using coupled mode equat...

Sera from 11 individuals which were classified as Lp(a-) by direct gel diffusion and by absorption tests showed the presence of Lp(a) lipoprotein when the sera were concentrated 120-fold. This Lp(a) antigen was demonstrated by gel diffusion to be indistinguishable from Lp-lipoprotein isolated from known Lp(a+) sera. The Lp(a) preparations from sera classified Lp(a-) also showed electrophoretic ...

The title compound, C4H6ClNO3, crystallizes with two independent mol-ecules (A and B) in the asymmetric unit. In each mol-ecule, there are N-H⋯O and N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds. Both mol-ecules are relatively planar, with the mean plane of the acetamide [N-C(=O)C] group being inclined to the mean plane of the acetate group [C-C(=O)O] by 9.23 (13)° in mol-ecule A and 6.23 (12)° in mol-ecule B. In the ...

This paper presents a class of Lp-type Opial inequalities for generalized fractional derivatives for integrable functions based on the results obtained earlier by the first author for continuous functions (1998). The novelty of our approach is the use of the index law for fractional derivatives in lieu of Taylor’s formula, which enables us to relax restrictions on the orders of fractional deriv...
