Whitham Equations, Dispersionless KP Theory and Seiberg-Witten Variables
… methods to get Whitham equations for the KP hierarchy and use period integrals, which correspond to SW variables, in the Whitham equations. Then we study applications of the Whitham theory and formulas involving branch points of some Riemann Surfaces associated with the KdV equation. …

Control and stabilization of kdv-kdv and kp type systems
… system, the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) equation and its higher-order variant, the Kawahara-KP (K- KP) equation. For the Boussinesq KdV-KdV type system and Hirota-Satsuma system, we design feedback laws at the boundary that combine damping mechanisms and delay terms, demonstrating the …

The involvement of the kynurenine pathway in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis
… past decade, involvement of kynurenine pathway (KP) has been implicated in many neurological diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease, Huntington diseases and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Increasing evidences indicate that the KP is also involved in MS. The aim of this thesis is to characterize the …

Predictors of Carbapenem Resistant Gram-negative Bacteria in a Consortium of Academic Medical Center Hospitals
… and carbapenem resistant K. pneumoniae (CR-KP). Also, CR-KP isolation was generated as a binary outcome. Generalized estimating equations (GEE) were used to model CR-KP and CR-PA. Results: CR-KP rates (1000PDs) increased from 0.07 in 2006 to 0.15 in 2009 (P= 0.0118) and CR-KP proportions …

The effects of catalase and kisspeptin overexpression on amyloid peptide toxicity
… enzyme that specifically binds Aβ. Kisspeptin (KP) is a product of the KiSS-1 gene and contains an Aβ binding domain, which also interacts with Aβ. The localization of catalase, KP and Aβ in the AD brain plus the effects of catalase and KiSS-1 overexpression in neuronal cells were investigated …

The effectiveness of videotape feedback in sport: examining cognitions in a self-controlled learning environment
… (VTFB) as a form of knowledge of performance (KP) to learners is a common instructional tool in teaching and coaching. VTFB has attracted renewed attention and various “laundry lists” of recommendations (e.g., provide VTFB immediately following performance, use frequently, vary camera angles) …

Robust optimization of linear optimization problems and an approximation approach to solve robust Knapsack Problem
The goal of classical KP, is to find a subset of items whose total weight does not exceed the knapsack capacity, and whose profit is a maximum. In the robust KP the goal is to find a subset of items whose total weight does not exceed the knapsack capacity, and remains near maximum for the worst …

Exploring new regulators of innate immune signalling pathways with a particular focus on inflammasomes
… encapsulated bacterium Klebsiella pneumoniae (Kp), ex vivo and in vivo. This study employed two strains of Kp (Kp52145 and Kp43816) with differential expression of the capsule; Kp52145 has a thicker capsule than Kp43816. This study demonstrated the importance of the capsule in regulating immune …
