Rates of uterine leiomyomata (UL) are 2–3 times higher in African Americans than in European Americans. It is unclear whether inherited factors explain the ethnic disparity. To investigate the presence of risk alleles for UL that are highly differentiated in frequency between African Americans and European Americans, the authors conducted an admixture-based genome-wide scan of 2,453 UL cases co...

To elucidate whether any relationship exists between ovarian blood flow and ovulation rate, the effects on these parameters were examined in equine chorionic gonadotrophin/human chorionic gonadotrophin (eCG/HCG) (15I U/15I U) primed rats after bilateral ligation and severance of either the ovarian branch of the uterine artery and vein (UL), the ovarian artery and vein (OL) or both sites (UL+OL)...

Mazhar ul Islam is one of the leading authors contemporary Urdu literature. Due to romantic, realist, surrealist, and symbolist concepts used in his works, author's style, which allows contrasting or incompatible interpretations be harmonized, described as most important feature. The events characters stories are generally a literary reflection Pakistani society. At same time, author does not h...

OBJECTIVES To investigate whether a priori selection of patient records using unexpectedly long length of stay (UL-LOS) leads to detection of more records with adverse events (AEs) compared to non-UL-LOS. DESIGN To investigate the opportunities of the UL-LOS, we looked for AEs in all records of patients with colorectal cancer. Within this group, we compared the number of AEs found in records ...

The aim of this paper is solving the predicate calculus formal system based on 1-level universal AND operator. Firstly, universal logic and propositional calculus formal deductive system (0 1] h UL∈ , are introduced. Secondly, a predicate calculus formal deductive system (0 1] h UL∈ , ∀ based on 1-level universal AND operator is built. Thirdly, the soundness theorem and deduction theorem of sys...

DAR, dynamic alternative routing, is a simple but effective form of dynamic routing which is decentralised and which uses only a small amount of local information. This paper examines the modelling and behaviourial aspects of such a scheme. In particular various bounds are presented which hold for any kind of dynamic routing scheme, and can be used to assess the performance of DAR. DAR can be i...

The ligation of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) for working with image processing systems in diagnostics (MRT) attracts increasing notice and scientific interest. The Diels-Alder ligation Reaction with inverse electron demand (DAR(inv)) turns out to be an appropriate candidate. The DAR(inv) is characterized by a specific distribution of electrons of the diene and the corresponding dieno...

This paper describes an extension of the dar-algorithm (Navarretta, 2004) for resolving intersentential pronominal anaphors referring to individual and abstract entities in texts and dialogues. In dar individual entities are resolved combining models which identify high degree of salience with high degree of givenness (topicality) of entities in the hearer’s cognitive model, e.g. (Grosz et al.,...

A large-scale system consisting of self-propelled particles, moving under the directional alignment rule (DAR), can often self-organize to an ordered state that emerges from an initially rotationally symmetric configuration. It is commonly accepted that the DAR, which leads to effective long-range interactions, is the underlying mechanism contributing to the collective motion. However, in this ...
