1 reported the first case of a dislocation of the trapezoid. Since that time there have been Ͻ25 reported cases in the literature. 2-24 Most dislocations are accompanied by a fracture of the adjacent carpals or metacarpals and usually are dorsal in direction. Palmar dislocation of the trape-zoid is distinctly more unusual, with Ͻ10 reported cases. 3, 4,6,22,24 A volar disloca-tion with accompan...

An independent set of three vertices is called an asteroidal triple if between each pair in the triple there exists a path that avoids the neighborhood of the third. A graph is asteroidal triplefree (AT-free) if it contains no asteroidal triple. The motivation for this investigation is provided, in part, by the fact that AT-free graphs offer a common generalization of interval, permutation, tra...

Although basket impaction rarely occurs during retrieval of common bile duct stones, it is a potentially serious event [1]. The Trapezoid RX wire-guided retrieval basket (Boston Scientific Corp., Marlborough, Massachusetts, USA) has an emergency release feature, whereby the tip is designed to disengage, thereby facilitating basket removal and reducing the risk of impaction [2]. However, we enco...

One of the methods for solving definite integrals is modified trapezoid method, which is obtained by using Hermitian interpolation (see e.g. [12]). In this article, we have used modified trapezoid quadrature method and Generalized differential to solve the Fredholm fuzzy integral equations of the second kind. This method leads to solve fuzzy linear system. Finally the proposed method is illustr...

An independent set of three of vertices is called an asteroidal triple if between each pair in the triple there exists a path that avoids the neighborhood of the third. A graph is asteroidal triple-free (AT-free, for short) if it contains no asteroidal triple. The motivation for this work is provided, in part, by the fact that AT-free graphs ooer a common generalization of interval, permutation...

In this paper, a generalization of trapezoid inequality for functions of two independent variables with bounded variation and some applications are given.

In this paper, we give infinitely many examples of (non-isomorphic) connected k-regular graphs with smallest eigenvalue in half open interval [−1− √ 2,−2) and also infinitely many examples of (non-isomorphic) connected k-regular graphs with smallest eigenvalue in half open interval [α1,−1− √ 2) where α1 is the smallest root(≈ −2.4812) of the polynomial x3 + 2x2 − 2x − 2. From these results, we ...

Activity-dependent transneuronal regulation of neuronal soma size has been studied in the medial nucleus of the trapezoid body and ventral cochlear nucleus of adolescent gerbils. Cochlear ablation or tetrodotoxin has been used to eliminate afferent electrical activity in auditory nerve fibers permanently or for 24 or 48 hours. Previous studies have shown that the cross-sectional area of spheric...
