... A Smarandache geometry is a geometry which has at least one Smarandachely denied axiom(1969), i.e., an axiom behaves in at least two different ways within the same space, i.e., validated and invalided, or only invalided but in multiple distinct ways and a Smarandache n-manifold is a n-manifold that support a Smarandache geometry. Iseri provided a construction for Smarandache 2-manifolds by equilateral triangular disks on a plane and a more general way for Smarandache 2-manifolds on surfaces, called map geometries was presented by the author in [9]−[10] and [12].

... The data analysed for Antwerp, for the period 1830-50, above is rather counter-intuitive. Company structures typically associated with small business could be used for activities of manufacturing. Sociétés and SNCs were chosen often even when capital was locked in. Sociétés en commandite, typically considered as vehicles for large companies with outside investors, were mainly used to structure family firms, even though they always encompassed invested capital. Moreover, company contracts were not, to a large extent, used to finance commercial activities, even when they were written down and registered. The arguments mentioned as to monitoring and maturing thus invite further reflection when considering the Antwerp case. The maturing argument cannot explain why both new and consolidated businesses were typically structured as sociétés and SNCs. Similarly, the monitoring argument does not support the relatively frequent use of SCs among family members, although only if family ties are taken as supplementing the contents of the company contract. Indeed, SCs separated investment from control, as Clerfeyt rightly stated. Moreover, there were not more partnerships for collaboration with non-relatives, which one could infer from the monitoring argument. As a result, the functionalities and intended uses of partnerships were much broader than has often been thought.

... Introduction: According to the World Health Organization, Helicobacter pylori infection affects 70–90% of adults in developing countries and 25–50% of adults from developed countries. Objectives: An assessment of the incidence of Helicobacter pylori infection among the household members of patients with positive urease test as well as determination of risk factors, symptoms and coexisting diseases. Material and methods: Study included 62 relatives of 32 patients with Helicobacter pylori infection, who were occupying the same household. Control group included 40 relatives of patients with negative urease test. All participants were subjected to Diago-HP serological testing and completed a questionnaire including 30 questions. Results: It was found that Helicobacter pylori infection is significantly more common among the household members of infected patients compared to the control group (37.1% vs. 18.4%, p < 0.001). The incidence of infections was 58.5% in the study population (patients and their relatives). Infected patients were older than the uninfected ones (51.1 ± 15.0 vs. 36.5 ± 18.6 years, p < 0.001), they more often reported difficulties in defecation (72.7% vs. 50.8%, p = 0.04) and a feeling of fullness in the upper abdomen (75.9% vs. 50.8%, p = 0.02). Type 2 diabetes significantly increased the risk of Helicobacter pylori infection (100% vs. 53.6%, p = 0.004). No relationship was found between accommodation, hygienic habits, drug use, diet or keeping pets. Conclusions: The incidence of Helicobacter pylori infection is significantly higher among the household members of infected patients. The infection is more common among elderly and diabetic patients.

... An auditory instrument of 100 criticisms, 100 praises, and 100 neutral comments was developed following the conventions for EE-criticism and EE-positive comments (Leff & Vaughn, 1985) and following the themes contained in the criticism and praise from an earlier study (Premkumar, et al., 2013). In addition to criticism and praise, neutral comments were designed as a general non-emotional control, and related to topics such as the weather, historical facts, and scientific facts. For example, ‘Today’s weather forecast suggests outbreaks of rain across the north, gradually easing with places becoming dry with sunny spells.’ The number of words per comment ranged from 18 to 20. A male actor and a female actor recorded the comments on a digital voice recorder. The male (AD) and female actors (PP) had a similar age and a similar length of experience in conducting psychological research. When the comments were spoken, the actors were trained to vary the prosodic variables (tone and pitch) to emphasise affective differences between the three types of comments. This was achieved by practising the tone of the voice for each comment type prior to recording. One actor (PP) was trained to rate EE using the CFI, and assessed the consistency of affect between the actors. The actors re-recorded the comments to address any differences in affective expression. The audio recording of standard praises, criticisms, and neutral phrases are available on request.
