Some Coding Theorems for Nonadditive Generalized Mean-Value Entropies

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2012
We give an optimality characterization of nonadditive generalized mean-value entropies from suitable nonadditive and generalized mean-value properties of the measure of average length.

Establishing an Apheresis Medicine Program in a Resource‐Constrained Setting: A 5‐Year Experience From Lagos, Nigeria

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Establishing a comprehensive apheresis medicine program in a resource‐constrained setting presents significant structural, financial, and logistical challenges. Despite the growing clinical importance of apheresis services globally, published experience from sub‐Saharan Africa remains sparse.

Comparative Evaluation of Hemodiafiltration, Hemoperfusion, and Standard Hemodialysis on Efficacy, Inflammatory Control, Dialysis Adequacy, and Safety in End‐Stage Renal Disease: A Prospective Observational Study

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Sharp Bounds for a Generalized Logarithmic Operator Mean and Heinz Operator Mean by Weighted Ones of Classical Operator Ones

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
In this paper, using a criteria for the monotonicity of the quotient of two power series, we present some sharp bounds for a generalized logarithmic operator mean and Heinz operator mean by weighted ones of classical operator ones.

On the Meaning of the Principle of General Covariance [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Theoretical Physics, 2012
We present a definite formulation of the Principle of General Covariance (GCP) as a Principle of General Relativity with physical content and thus susceptible of verification or contradiction. To that end it is useful to introduce a kind of coordinates, that we call quasi-Minkowskian coordinates (QMC), as an empirical extension of the Minkowskian ...

‘Hajj: what it means for general practice’ [PDF]

open access: yesBJGP Open, 2018
Annually, about 20 000 British Muslims journey to Saudi Arabia to undertake the Hajj, the greater Muslim pilgrimage.1 The National Travel Health Network and Centre advises intended pilgrims to see their GP 6 weeks prior to travel, to review their health needs and fitness to perform Hajj.2 With rising multimorbidity, polypharmacy, and risk of infectious

Forecasting the Dialysis Burden in Japan: Validation‐Based Projections of Prevalence and Incidence Through 2050

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Japan has one of the highest dialysis prevalence rates worldwide and a shrinking, aging population. Whether dialysis burden has entered a sustained post‐peak phase or whether recent declines partly reflect pandemic‐related disruptions remains uncertain.

Regularity of Generalized Mean-Field G-SDEs

open access: yesMathematics
We study the regularity properties of the unique solution of a generalized mean-field G-SDE. More precisely, we consider a generalized mean-field G-SDE with a square-integrable random initial condition, establish its first- and second-order Fréchet ...

Association Between Individualized Education for Kidney Replacement Therapy Modality Selection and Peritoneal Dialysis Initiation: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an established home‐based kidney replacement therapy (KRT), but its uptake remains low in Japan. We evaluated whether individualized education in a dedicated outpatient clinic was associated with the initiation of PD.

Best Possible Inequalities between Generalized Logarithmic Mean and Classical Means

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2010
We answer the question: for α,β,γ∈(0,1) with α+β+γ=1, what are the greatest value p and the least value q, such that the double inequality Lp(a,b)
