Objective: To investigate brain functional network (BFN) changes in patients with PSCI after acupuncture therapy. Methods: Twenty-two PSCI patients who underwent acupuncture therapy in our hospital were enrolled as research subjects. Another 14 people matched for age, sex, and education level were included in the normal control (HC) group. All the subjects underwent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) scans;the PSCI patients underwent one scan before acupuncture therapy and another after. The network metric difference between PSCI patients and HCs was analyzed via the independent-sample t test, whereas the paired-sample t test was employed to analyze the network metric changes in PSCI patients before vs. after treatment. Results: Small-world network attributes were observed in both groups for sparsities between 0.1 and 0.28. Compared with the HC group, the PSCI group presented significantly lower values for the global topological properties (γ, Cp, and Eloc) of the brain;significantly greater values for the nodal attributes of betweenness centrality in the CUN. L and the HES. R, degree centrality in the SFGdor. L, PCG. L, IPL. L, and HES. R, and nodal local efficiency in the ORBsup. R, ORBsupmed. R, DCG. L, SMG. R, and TPOsup. L;and decreased degree centrality in the MFG. R, IFGoperc. R, and SOG. R. After treatment, PSCI patients presented increased degree centrality in the LING.L, LING.R, and IOG. L and nodal local efficiency in PHG. L, IOG. R, FFG. L, and the HES. L, and decreased betweenness centrality in the PCG. L and CUN. L, degree centrality in the ORBsupmed. R, and nodal local efficiency in ANG. R. Conclusion: Cognitive decline in PSCI patients may be related to BFN disorders;acupuncture therapy may modulate the topological properties of the BFNs of PSCI patients.展开更多

Their existence has been proven in base 2, 11 or 17. This paper presents a probabilistic proof of the existence of Lychrel number in base 10 and provides some properties which enable a mathematical extraction of new Lychrel numbers from existing ones. This probabilistic approach has the advantage of being extendable to other bases. The results show that palindromes can also be Lychrel numbers.展开更多

Proving the twin prime conjecture using traditional modern number theory is extremely profound and complex. We propose an elementary research method for corresponding prime number, proved that the conjecture of twin prime numbers and obtain the corresponding prime distribution equation. According to the distribution rate of corresponding prime numbers, the distribution pattern of twin prime numbers was proved the distribution rate theorem. This is the distribution rate of prime numbers corresponding to composite numbers, which approaches the distribution rate of prime numbers corresponding to integers. Based on the corresponding prime distribution equation, obtain the twin prime inequality function. Then, the formula for calculating twin prime numbers was discussed. There is also the Hardy Littlewood conjecture. This provides a practical and feasible approach for studying the distribution of twin prime numbers.展开更多

The purpose of the present work is to study various types of Burger’s equations describing waves and those are based on nonlinear equations. We focus on to describe the analytic solution in the special pattern of travelling wave solutions using tan-cot function method. We discuss about inviscid and viscous version of Burger’s equation for fluid flow and investigate the effects of internal friction of a fluid via Reynolds number. By changing the velocity amplitude, the nature of flows with shock wave and disturbance are observed. For numerical solutions, the Crank-Nicolson scheme is introduced to establish the wave solutions.展开更多

Although there are few ways to describe membership function like artificial neural networks, genetic algorithms etc.;they are very complex and time consuming. On the other hand, the presence of outlier in a data set produces deceptive results in the modeling. So it is important to detect and eliminate them to prevent their negative effect on the modeling. This paper describes a new and simple way of constructing fuzzy membership function by using five-number summary of a data set. Five states membership function can be created in this new method. At the same time, if there is any outlier in the data set, it can be detected with the help of this method. Usually box plot is used to identify the outliers of a data set. So along with the new approach, the box plot has also been drawn so that it is understood that the results obtained in the new method are accurate. Several real life examples and their analysis have been discussed with graph to demonstrate the potential of the proposed method. The results obtained show that the proposed method has given good results. In the case of outlier, the proposed method and the box plot method have shown similar results. Primary advantage of this new procedure is that it is not as expensive as neural networks, and genetic algorithms.展开更多
