A phase two randomised controlled double blind trial of high dose intravenous methylprednisolone and oral prednisolone versus intravenous normal saline and oral prednisolone in individuals with leprosy type 1 reactions and/or nerve function impairment. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Leprosy Type 1 reactions are a major cause of nerve damage and the preventable disability that results. Type 1 reactions are treated with oral corticosteroids and there are few data to support the optimal dose and duration of treatment.

"DARI-ANASTASIA-OLGA-THE RESURRECTED": THE IMAGE OF "IVAN SHMELEV'S GIRL" [PDF]
The attempts to build the typology of Shmelev's female images have been repeatedly made by researchers. However, we think that the author in his works and correspondence, relying on classic literature and questioning it at the same time, shapes his own ...

Type Theory with Opposite Types: A Paraconsistent Type Theory
Abstract A version of intuitionistic type theory is extended with opposite types, allowing a different formalization of negation and obtaining a paraconsistent type theory ($\textsf{PTT} $). The rules for opposite types in $\textsf{PTT} $ are based on the rules of the so-called constructible falsity.

Dynamic Typing with Dependent Types [PDF]
Dependent type systems are promising tools programmers can use to increase the reliability and security of their programs. Unfortunately, dependently-typed programming languages require programmers to annotate their programs with many typing specifications to help guide the type checker.

Type inference with constrained types
In this paper we present a general framework HM(X) for Hindley/Milner style type systems with constraints, analogous to the CLP(X) framework in constrained logic programming. We show that the type system is sound with respect to a standard untyped compositional semantics. We present sufficient conditions on the constraint domain X so that the principal

Rare A-Type, New Spiro-Type, and Highly Oligomeric Proanthocyanidins from Pinus massoniana
Isolation of underivatized PACs led to three new, structurally unique PACs (1-3) from pine bark. Pinutwindoublin (1) is the first known trimer with double A-type interflavanyl linkages (2α→O→5,4α→6 and 2α→O→7,4α). Pinuspirotetrin (2) represents the first

Adding pioglitazone to insulin containing regimens in type 2 diabetes : systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Background Type 2 diabetes is treated in a stepwise manner, progressing from diet and physical activity to oral antidiabetic agents and insulin. The oral agent pioglitazone is licensed for use with insulin when metformin is contraindicated or not ...
