We apply an existence theorem of variational inclusion problem on metric spaces to study optimization problems, set-valued vector saddle point problems, bilevel Playskool problems, and mathematical programs with equilibrium constraint on metric spaces.We study these problems without any convexity and compactness assumptions.Our results are differen
"Food addiction" in patients with eating disorders is associated with negative urgency and difficulties to focus on long-term goals
Objectives: The present study aimed to investigate if eating disorder patients differ in specific personality traits depending on a positive screening of food addiction and to find a model to predict food addiction in eating disorder patients using measures of personality and impulsivity.Methods: 278 patients having an eating disorder self-reported
Autophagy: Friend or Foe in Breast Cancer Development, Progression, and Treatment
Autophagy is a catabolic process responsible for the degradation and recycling of long-lived proteins and organelles by lysosomes.This degradative pathway sustains cell survival during nutrient deprivation, but in some circumstances, autophagy leads to cell death.Thereby, autophagy can serve as tumor suppressor, as the reduction in autophagic capac
Applying Noncontact Sensing Technology in the Customized Product Design of Smart Clothes Based on Anthropometry
Electrocardiograms (ECGs) provide important information for diagnosing cardiovascular diseases.In clinical practice, the conventional Ag/AgCl electrode is generally used; however, it is not suitable for long-term ECG measurement because of the risk of allergic reactions on the skin and the dying issue of electrolytic gels.In previous studies, sever
Using GIS mapping of the extent of nearshore rocky reefs to estimate the abundance and reproductive output of important fishery species.
Kelp Bass (Paralabrax clathratus) and California Sheephead (Semicossyphus pulcher) are economically and ecologically valuable rocky reef fishes in southern California, making them likely indicator species for evaluating resource management actions.Multiple spatial datasets, aerial and satellite photography, underwater observations and expert judgme
