On the category of bisimplicial sets there are different Quillen closed model structures associated to various definitions of fibrations. In one of them, which is due to Bousfield and Kan and that consists of seeing a bisimplicial set as a simplicial object in the category of simplicial sets, fibrations are those bisimplicial set maps such that each of the induced simplicial set maps is a Kan f...

Bezem, Coquand, and Huber have recently given a constructively valid model of higher type theory in a category of nominal cubical sets satisfying a novel condition, called the uniform Kan condition (UKC), which generalizes the standard cubical Kan condition (as considered by, for example, Williamson in his survey of combinatorial homotopy theory) to admit phantom “additional” dimensions in open...

Özet: Günümüzde albumin tayininde genellikle bromocreosol purple (BCP) ve bromocreosol green (BCG) gibi fitalein boyalar kullanılmaktadır. Ancak bu yöntemlerde albuminin boya bağlanma affinitesi türlere göre farklılıklar göstermekte, preanalitik ve analitik faktörler de sonuçlar üzerinde etkili olmaktadır. Bu çalışmada domuz, sığır ve koyunda albumin düzeylerinin BCP ve BCG boya bağlanma yöntem...

OBJECTIVE To assess the reliability of the Kids' Activity and Nutrition Questionnaire (KAN-Q) as part of a tiered process for developing Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program-Education tools. METHODS The KAN-Q was administered at 2 time points to assess internal consistency using standardized values of Cronbach α and test-retest reliability using the intraclass correlation coefficient for...

Using generating functions, the top-order zonal polynomials that occur in much distribution theory under normality can be recursively related to other symmetric functions (power-sum and elementary symmetric functions, Ruben (1962), Hillier, Kan, and Wang (2009)). Typically, in a recursion of this type the k-th object of interest, dk say, is expressed in terms of all lower-order dj ’s. In Hillie...

OPSOMMING Die tegnologiese en fisiese versorging van pasiënte in ’n intensiewe sorgeenheid is gewoonlik baie goed — die sielkundige aspekte van intensiewe verpieegsorg word egter dikwels verwaarloos. Om die nodige ondersteuning te kan bied, moet die verpleegkundige bewus wees van pasiënte se sielkundige be­ hoeftes, die verdedigingsmeganismes wat gebruik word, die invloed van spanning en ook va...

The sarA locus of Staphylococccus aureus regulates the synthesis of over 100 genes on the S. aureus chromosome. We now report the effects of sarA inactivation on intrinsic multidrug resistance expression by S. aureus. In a strain-dependent fashion, sarA::kan mutants of three unrelated strains of S. aureus demonstrated significantly increased susceptibility to five or more of the following subst...
