In this paper, we introduce the concepts of n-fold obstinate pseudo-hoop and n-fold obstinate filter in pseudo-hoops. Then we investigated these notions and proved some properties of them. Also, we discussed the relationship between n-fold obstinate pseudo-hoop and n-fold obstinate filter and other types of n-fold pseudo-hoops and n-fold filters such as n-fold (positive) implicative filter and ...

The analysis of 212 fluorescein angiograms of the same number of eyes showed that Type I is by far the most prevalent form of central serous retinopathy. Type I appeared in 92.45%, Type II in 6.60% and the Intermediate type in 0.95% of the examined eyes. The patients were mostly male (81.13%) between 30 and 49 years of age (95.28%). The number of leakage sites in Type I central serous retinopat...

a 22 year-old woman presented with gradual visual loss in her right eye since 1990. medical and family histories were unremarkable. her visual acuity was 20/80 and 20/20 in right and left eyes respectively. slit lamp examination was quite normal with no relative afferent papillary defect.fundi of both eyes revealed subretinal lesion with optic nerve head involvement and subretinal fluid in papi...

background: menopause is associated with changes in body composition in postmenopausal women. the aim of this study was to compare the effects of tibolone and continuous combined hormone therapy (ht) on body composition in postmenopausal women. materials and methods: in this randomized clinical trial, 120 menopausal women were randomly selected and divided into three groups. of these, 40 women ...

We have constructed a poker classification system which makes informed betting decisions based upon three defining features extracted while playing poker: hand value, risk, and aggressiveness. The system is implemented as a poker player agent, and as such, the goals of the classifier are not only to correctly determine whether each hand should be folded, called, or raised, but to win as many ch...

in this study we investigate voice productions of normal speakers and patients with varying vocal fold adduction deficiencies using a noninvasive method to measure spatial vibrations of the larynx. the current version accv4 of our acceleration sensor device was used. The study’s primary goal is to find out whether lesions of vocal folds lead to additional spatial vibration modes compared to a n...

Biological responses often obey Weber's law, according to which the magnitude of the response depends only on the fold change in the external input. In this study, we demonstrate that a system involving a simple autocatalytic reaction shows such a response when a chemical is slowly synthesized by the reaction from a faster influx process. We also show that an autocatalytic reaction process occu...

The well-known third list homomorphism theorem states that if a function h is both an instance of foldr and foldl , it is a list homomorphism. Plenty of previous works devoted to constructing list homomorphisms, however, overlook the fact that proving h is both a foldr and a foldl is often the hardest part which, once done, already provides a useful hint about what the resulting list homomorphi...

The CCAAT box is one of the most common cis-elements present in eukaryotic promoters and is bound by the transcription factor NUCLEAR FACTOR Y (NF-Y). NF-Y is composed of three subunits, NF-YA, NF-YB, and NF-YC. Unlike animals and fungi, plants have significantly expanded the number of genes encoding NF-Y subunits. We provide a comprehensive classification of NF-Y genes, with a separation of cl...
