Open AccessFurther clarification of cognitive processes of prospective memory in schizophrenia by comparing eye-tracking and ecologically-valid measurements
The aim of this study is to compare ecologically-valid measure (the Cambridge Prospective Memory Test, CAMPROMPT) and laboratory measure (eye-tracking paradigm) in assessing prospective memory (PM) in individu...

Quantitative Characterizations of Bounded Compact Approximation Property by Semi-Fredholm Operators
Based on a characterization of upper semi-Fredholm operators due to A. Lebow and M. Schechter, we introduce and investigate a new quantity characterizing upper semi-Fredholm operators. This quantity and severa...

Open AccessThe deficient cue monitoring and the facilitating effect of prosocial intention on prospective memory in patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders
The study aimed to investigate the cognitive processing of prospective memory (PM) in patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders (SSDs) by using an eye-tracking paradigm. In addition, the facilitating effe...

Open AccessPerformance of age-adjusted D-dimer values for predicting DVT before the knee and hip arthroplasty
To compare the specificity and sensitivity of preoperative D-dimer and age-adjusted D-dimer value for predicting the incidence of the DVT preoperatively in total joint arthroplasty (TJA) patients.

Side Chain Engineering of Sulfonated Poly(arylene ether)s for Proton Exchange Membranes
Proton conductivity of proton exchange membranes (PEMs) strongly relies on microscopic morphology, which can be modulated by engineering the distribution of ionic groups. Herein, poly(arylene ether)s with dens...

Chloromethylation and Quaternization of Poly(aryl ether ketone sulfone)s with Clustered Electron-rich Phenyl Groups for Anion Exchange Membranes
Ion segregation is critically important for achieving high ion conductivity for anion exchange membranes (AEMs). Herein, a new bisphenol monomer bearing ten electron-rich phenyl groups was designed and polymer...

Suppression of vortex-induced vibrations of a flexible riser by adding helical strakes
3-D computational fluid dynamics/ computational structure dynamics (CFD/CSD) numerical two-way coupling simulations are conducted for a flexible rise in order to study the dynamic response performance of the r...

The approximation properties determined by operator ideals
We introduce the notion of the right approximation property with respect to an operator ideal A and solve the duality problem for the approximation property with respect to an operator ideal A, that is, a Banach ...

Perturbations of frames
In this paper, we give some sufficient conditions under which perturbations preserve Hilbert frames and near-Riesz bases. Similar results are also extended to frame sequences, Riesz sequences and Schauder fram...

Three-space problems for the bounded compact approximation property
In this paper, the notion of the bounded compact approximation property (BCAP) of a pair [Banach space and its subspace] is used to prove that if X is a closed subspace of L ∞ with the BCAP, then

Extracorporeal shock wave treatment in nonunions of long bone fractures
We reviewed the clinical results of the past 7 years in order to investigate the effect of extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) in nonunions of long bone fracture. Sixty-nine patients with 69 nonunions (22...
