Deficiency in Signed Graphs [PDF]
We introduce the concept of deficiency in signed graphs. The deficiency of a coloration is the number of unused colors. We classify the deficiency of 2-chromatic graphs. There are four decision problems about the minimum and maximum deficiency of a 3-chromatic signed graph. We answer two of them with a polynomial-time algorithm for deciding the maximum

Erythrocytosis in thiamine deficient rats.
A thiamine (T) deficient state in rats was produced by feeding the rats a T deficient diet (TDD). At the stage of 13 days (TDD13 group), the number of red blood cells (RBC) and white blood cells (WBC), hematocrit (Ht) and hemoglobin (Hb) values decreased.

HI Deficiencies and Asymmetries in HIPASS Galaxies [PDF]
We present an analysis of the sky distribution of neutral hydrogen (HI) deficiency and spectral asymmetry for galaxies detected by the HI Parkes All-Sky Survey (HIPASS) as a function of projected environment density. Previous studies of galaxy HI deficiency using HIPASS were sensitive to galaxies that are extremely HI rich or poor.

Thiamin Deficiency in People with Obesity [PDF]
Although obesity has been viewed traditionally as a disease of excess nutrition, evidence suggests that it may also be a disease of malnutrition. Specifically, thiamin deficiency was found in 15.5-29% of obese patients seeking bariatric surgery. It can present with vague signs and symptoms and is often overlooked in patients without alcohol use ...
