Reversal of the Symptoms of Diabetic Neuropathy through Correction of Vitamin D Deficiency in a Type 1 Diabetic Patient by David S. H. Bell

“…Vitamin D deficiency has been shown to be more common in diabetic patients who have symptoms of distal symmetrical polyneuropathy. In addition, vitamin D deficiency has been associated with a lower pain threshold which increases when vitamin D deficiency is corrected. …”

Nonlinear Dynamics and Multistability in a Cobweb Model by S. S. Askar

“…Furthermore, we study the symmetric case when the producers update their prices based on the marginal profit in the past two time periods, and therefore, we investigate the influence of the speed of adjustment parameter on the stability of equilibrium price.…”

Bregman divergences for physically informed discrepancy measures for learning and computation in thermomechanics by Andrieux, Stéphane

“…This study is motivated by the need of “discrepancy measures” between physically constrained fields that are used both in traditional algorithms, analysis methods and data driven modelling or applications as well.We give also a characterization of symmetrical Bregman divergences through their generating functions which can only be quadratic forms. …”

Almost Existentially Closed Models in Positive Logic by Mohammed Belkasmi

“…To accomplish this, we initially define various forms of the positive amalgamation property, such as h-amalgamation and symmetric and asymmetric amalgamation properties. Subsequently, we introduce certain structures that enjoy these properties. …”

On Maximal Subsemigroups of Partial Baer-Levi Semigroups by Boorapa Singha, Jintana Sanwong

“…Suppose that X is an infinite set with |X|≥q≥ℵ0 and I(X) is the symmetric inverse semigroup defined on X. In 1984, Levi and Wood determined a class of maximal subsemigroups MA (using certain subsets A of X) of the Baer-Levi semigroup BL(q)={α∈I(X): dom α=X and |X∖Xα|=q}. …”

Review on Mathematical and Mechanical Models of the Vocal Cord by L. Cveticanin

“…The corresponding mathematical models are the systems of coupled second-order differential equations which describe the vibrations of the symmetric and asymmetric vocal folds. The models give the conditions for the regular and irregular motions like bifurcation and deterministic chaos in vocal folds. …”

Tail coiling behaviour around conspecific’s body during fur rubbing in white-faced capuchins by Helene Meunier, Jean-Louis Deneubourg, Odile Petit

“…Through this quantitative study, we found that (1) all the individuals emit and receive tail coiling, (2) affiliation drives the extent to which this behaviour is emitted; (3) emission and reception of tail coiling are symmetrical, even if delayed in time; (4) tail coiling frequency depends on the food resource used to perform fur rubbing and (5) tail coiling does not increase the duration of fur-rubbing behaviour. …”

A group theoretic approach to generalized harmonic vibrations in a one dimensional lattice by J. N. Boyd, P. N. Raychowdhury

“…By taking the number of vibrating point masses to be very large, we obtain the natural frequencies of vibration for any arbitrary, but symmetric, harmonic coupling of the masses in a one dimensional lattice. …”

Orthogonal Polynomials on Radial Rays in the Complex Plane: Construction, Properties and Applications by Gradimir V. Milovanović

“…Special attention is paid to completely symmetric cases. Recurrence relations for such kinds of orthogonal polynomials and their zero distribution, as well as a connection with the standard polynomials orthogonal on the real line, are derived, including the corresponding linear differential equation of the second order. …”

Paraná Pine, Araucaria angustifolia: An Ancient-Looking Conifer for Modern Landscapes by Gary W. Knox

“… Paraná pine is a primitive-looking conifer valued for its unusual horizontal branching, interesting triangular-shaped needles, and neat, symmetrical form. The primitive appearance of this evergreen tree results from its resemblance to and relationship with an ancient group of Araucaria-related conifers that dominated forests more than 145 million years ago. …”
