for a graph $g$ let $gamma (g)$ be its domination number. we define a graph g to be (i) a hypo-efficient domination graph (or a hypo-$mathcal{ed}$ graph) if $g$ has no efficient dominating set (eds) but every graph formed by removing a single vertex from $g$ has at least one eds, and (ii) a hypo-unique domination graph (a hypo-$mathcal{ud}$ graph) if $g$ has at least two minimum dominating sets...

For a graph $G$ let $gamma (G)$ be its domination number. We define a graph G to be (i) a hypo-efficient domination graph (or a hypo-$mathcal{ED}$ graph) if $G$ has no efficient dominating set (EDS) but every graph formed by removing a single vertex from $G$ has at least one EDS, and (ii) a hypo-unique domination graph (a hypo-$mathcal{UD}$ graph) if $G$ has at least two minimum dominating sets...

Background: Following the expansion of human infertility, different procedures have been utilized for separation of normal sperm during ICSI (Intra cytoplasmic sperm injection). Hypo-osmotic swelling test (HOST) is one of the tests which have been introduced for assessment of integrity of sperm membrane when confronted with hypo osmotic condition. This test may also reflect intracellular organe...

External beam radiotherapy with high doses provokes many acute skin reactions, such as erythema and moist desquamation. Many topical preparations are used in radiation oncology departments in the skin care. Sucralfate humid gel, a colloidal physical form of the anti-ulcer drug sucralfate, promotes epithelial regeneration and activates cell proliferation. Based on this knowledge, we performed a ...

BACKGROUND Previous data from our institution showed that hypofractionated thoracic radiotherapy (HypoTRT) with concurrent etoposide/platinum chemotherapy yielded favorable survival in patients with limited-stage small cell lung cancer (LS-SCLC). The present study retrospectively compared the survival outcomes, failure patterns and toxicities between groups of LS-SCLC patients treated with conv...

background: recurrent abortion is defined as three or more consecutive pregnancy losses. we aimed to determine the relationship between male sperm parameters and hypo-osmotic swelling score and recurrent abortion. we also studied whether washing of spermatozoa and intrauterine insemination in patients with recurrent miscarriage and low score hypo-osmotic swelling test in male partners could imp...

semen analysis, sperm dna fragmentation (sdf) and hypo-osmotic swelling test (host) are usually performed for the evaluation of sperm fertilizing ability. there are some debates over the necessity of sdf and host incorporation in male infertility work-up.semen of 77 men was evaluated by sdf and host through three semen analyses. sperm parameters were arranged into different categories: < 5%, 5-...

Abstract Background The EF-14 phase III trial demonstrated improved survival for patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma (nGBM) when TTFields therapy was added to adjuvant temozolomide chemotherapy. at 200 kHz are applied the tumor utilizing arrays on patients’ scalp. In preclinical studies, a synergistic inhibiting effect cell proliferation found combination of and radiotherapy. Based these...

Traffic accidents are caused by driver fatigue or distraction in many cases. To prevent accidents, several low-cost hypovigilance (hypo-V) systems were developed the past based on a multimodal-hybrid (physiological and behavioral) feature set. Similarly this paper, real-time inattention (Hypo-Driver) detection system is proposed through multi-view cameras biosignal sensors to extract hybrid fea...
