Archaeal communities in mineral soils were compared between a boreal forest in Finland and cold-temperate forest in Japan using 16S rRNA gene-targeted high-throughput sequencing. In boreal soils, Thaumarchaeota Group 1.1c archaea predominated and Thaumarchaeota Group 1.1a-associated and Group 1.1b archaea were also detected. In temperate soils, Thaumarchaeota Group 1.1a-associated and Group 1.1...

This paper discusses the dominancy of local features (LFs), as input to the multilayer neural network (MLN), extracted from a Bangla input speech over mel frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCCs). Here, LF-based method comprises three stages: (i) LF extraction from input speech, (ii) phoneme probabilities extraction using MLN from LF and (iii) the hidden Markov model (HMM) based classifier to ob...

Acupuncture is helpful in treating various diseases, including autonomic nervous system (ANS) dysfunction caused by mental stress. On the other hand, the frontal lobe is suggested to play an important role in stress responses by modulating the ANS. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of acupuncture on ANS and frontal lobe activities. We investigated 18 normal adults. We measured th...

In this paper, which is a direct continuation and generalization of the recent works by authors [17, 35], we show validity generic multiplicity-induced-dominancy property for general class linear functional differential equations with single delay, including retarded as well neutral cases. The result based on an appropriate integral representation corresponding characteristic quasipolynomial fu...

INTRODUCTION
 Covid-19 is a debilitating disorder which affects the lungs with multiple organs involvement. The biochemical variables play important role in management of patients who are different clinical profile, socio-demographic, and co-morbid conditions like diabetes hypertension.
 MATERIAL AND METHODS
 This cross sectional study was conducted hospitalized cases at UCMS, Bha...

BACKGROUND Two major distinct subsets of dendritic cells (DCs) are arranged to regulate immune responses: DEC-205+ DCs drive Th1 polarization and 33D1+ DCs establish Th2 dominancy. Th1 polarization can be achieved either by depletion of 33D1+ DCs with a 33D1-specific monoclonal antibody (mAb) or by activation of DEC-205+ DCs via intraperitoneal injection of α-galactosylceramide (α-GalCer). We s...

OBJECTIVES The most prevalent disorders of the shoulder are related to the muscles of rotator cuff. In order to develop a mechanical method for the evaluation of the rotator cuff muscles, we created a database of isometric force generation by the rotator cuff muscles in normal adult population. We hypothesised the existence of variations according to age, gender and dominancy of limb. METHODS...

The PID control is favored in controlling industrial processes for its ease of implementation. In this paper, the multiplicity-induced-dominancy property used design stabilizing controllers some delayed reduced-order plants. More precisely, gains are tuned using multiplicity’s algebraic constraints allowing to assign analytically closed-loop solutions’ decay rate. Furthermore, robustness agains...
