Assessment of the first level managers only in respect their compliance with requirements set for a particular job position isnot sufficient. A tool facilitating identification relevance certain management chain is required asit would ensure effectiveness performance and harmony chain. The present article aims at emphasisingthe feasibility (MLM–FLM–SUB) throughpersonality traits. research analy...

We construct an irreducible representation for the extended affine algebra of type sl2 with coordinates in a quantum torus. We explicitly give formulas using vertex operators similar to those found in the theory of the infinite rank affine algebra A∞. Introduction. The purpose of this paper is to construct a module for the Extended Affine Lie algebra (EALA for short), we call it L̂, of type sl2 ...

PURPOSE It is well known that the dopaminergic signaling pathway plays a pivotal role in the control of axial elongation. Much research has shown that retinal dopamine (DA) is decreased in experimental myopia, but the exact alteration in DA quantity underlying the myopia model induced by flickering light (FL) has not yet been fully elucidated. Therefore, in this study, we first attempted to pro...

The binding of fluorescently labeled microspheres (FLMs, 0.1-microm diameter) coated with antibody (1a29) to ICAM-1 was studied in postcapillary venules during topical application of the chemoattractant N-formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP). FLM adhesion to endothelial cells (ECs) increased dramatically from 50 to 150 spheres per 100-microm length of venule after superfusion of the mese...

BACKGROUND Because respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) affects 1% of live births, accurate and rapid assessment of markers of fetal lung maturity is critical to clinicians in deciding whether to deliver a preterm infant. Our objective was to determine the optimal diagnostic cutoff value for the TDx-FLM II assay (Abbott Laboratories) for predicting clinically significant RDS. METHODS Amniotic ...

In this paper we introduce FLM, a divergence measure to compare a fuzzy and a crisp partition. This measure is an extension of LM, the López de Mántaras distance. This extension allows to handle domain objects having attributes with continuous values. This means that for some domains the use of fuzzy sets may report better results than the discretization that is the usual way to deal with conti...

Abstract Transport and loss of beam injected energetic particles (EPs) due to three-dimensional perturbations, associated with the external kink (XK) instability fishbone-like mode (FLM), are numerically investigated utilizing guiding center following code ORBIT for static toroidal plasmas in HL-2A. The perturbation structure XK is computed by MARS-F then mapped Boozer coordinates as defined OR...
