Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -AMH produced by granulosa cells [GC] of the ovary; AMH, also known as Mullerian-inhibiting substance, is a dimeric glycoprotein that belongs to the transforming growth factor-ß family. It is virtually undetectable but increases gradually until puberty and remains relatively stable through the reproductive period. It is widely accepted that the reduction of AMH levels in serum is the first indication for decline in the follicular reserve of the ovaries and can be measured in the blood at any time in the menstrual cycle due to its stability. AMH is a marker for ovarian reserve and naturally lower in older women [>40 year] and higher in women with Polycystic ovaries [PCO] and polycystic Ovary Syndrome [POCS]. It was reported that Follicle stimulating hormone [FSH), Estradiol [E2] levels and antral follicle count [AFC] have been used for evaluation of ovarian reserve to determine suitable treatment strategy for female infertility by age, which becomes very essential in recent years. This book deals with the Anti-Mullerian Hormone levels in women patients.…

The purpose was to evolve a compact model that could be used for the majority of types of risk insured. The authors were inspired by the absence of an established rating model as well as from the essentially empirical and experience-based traditional rating methods which provided them with an area for further research. Several rating factors were used as independent variables to their model and were checked for their statistical significance. The authors performed a thorough investigation for the period 2000 - 2015 and came up with findings that illustrated that a structural change had taken place for P&I Clubs' risk premia since the commencement of the global financial crisis (2008). In this direction, the miscellaneous points of view of eminent members of the P&I Clubs and the market experts proved decisive for the overview of the marine insurance market. 76 pp. Englisch.…

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Zimbabwe's fast track land reform policy of 2000 brought with it racialized and somewhat conflicting responses from the international community. The first ten years of independence witnessed the failed willing buyer willing seller model Let driven by the Lancaster House Constitution. Britain and USA stopped funding the land reform under the compulsory acquisition era 1991 - 2000. The Lancaster House constitutional debate failed to address the land issue which remained both an emotional trigger and a national security concern for Zimbabwe. The revolutionary approach adopted by the ZANU PF was induced by the British Government's 1600 creation of the opposition party during the late 90s. The chaotic nature of the land reform attracted backlash from the neoliberal who employed smart power to cripple Zimbabwe's economic sector to rally the population against the ZANU PF-led Government. The generality of Africans identified as critical to the process in Zimbabwe redressing the imbalances skewed land engineered by the colonial past. The unresolved road-map to the land redistribution program, a bilateral issue between Zimbabwe and Britain was internationalized. 68 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The author of this book represents his look on three actual problems of modern physics: on the relativistic radiation of black body, on spaces and forces forming them, on time and its transformation in chaos. Studying the black body radiation under relativistic conditions, the author has obtained the law of the radiation of black body one under these conditions. It was showed as well that Max Planck and Albert Einstein had been mistaken solving the problem of the black body radiation under relativistic conditions. Studying linear spaces, the author formulated a theorem binding the dimensions n=1,2.j of these spaces with the dimensions m=1,2.,i (j=i+1) of the forces forming them. The author have showed as well that physical time has material nature: it is a derivative from rate of specific energy (Joul/unit power) flow of given process, e.g., of the process of Universe extension. At last, the author has showed that we exist in the Universe which is isotropic and expands stationary. If our space-time were anisotropic and would expand no stationary, then causal connections in Universe would break and chaos would reign. 60 pp. Englisch.…

This book has been written as a result of my social interaction with friends, students, colleagues and couples in the institution of marriage. Every society has certain forms/ways of arrangements which is referred to marriage. However, remaining single or pairing without marriage that is living together is now fast been accepted as marriage. The maintaining of an unmarried lifestyle is as a result of the growing economic independence of young people. Some people remain single as they do not want to limit their sexual intimacy to one lifetime partner or the burden of children. For a very long time now, living alone has increased rapidly. The single life for both men and women is no longer a taboo but a show of independence and self-controlled. Marriage is a sacrament of trust, prayer and forgiveness that brings two people together in union as one. It must include being best of friends, forgiveness, effective communication, consideration for one another, exposure to good things of life, making time to have fun and time for love making. 52 pp. Englisch.…

This mathematical structure provides, along with intuitively clear geometrical interpretation, much deeper description of physical phenomena superficially described by conventional quantum mechanics. Following the B. Hiley belief that unresolved problems of conventional quantum mechanics could be the result of a wrong mathematical stricture I address with my work first of all to those who are not brainwashed by N. Bohr and his adepts into thinking that the question of quantum mechanics is solved, and to young brave students not zombied-out yet with Hilbert space formalism of quantum mechanics and not being afraid to be considered as heretics, pariahs by the physicists majority. The suggested formalism demonstrates, for example, that the core of future quantum computing should not be in entanglement, as common wisdom reads. The core of quantum computing scheme should be in manipulation and transferring of wave functions as operators acting on observables. 76 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book tells about the poetic works of Erkin Vahidov, the leading representative of Uzbek poetry of the XX century, including ghazals, poems and muhammas. We know that in the classical poetry of the Muslim East, the potential and skill of the poets was measured by the way he composed the devon. Due to the political crisis in Uzbekistan in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, interest in classical literature waned. Poets began to prefer the finger poetry system rather than the aruz poetry system. Because by this time literature was adapted to sing social life, not the themes of heavenly love.At a time when the system of aruz poetry was completely forgotten by the 60s of the last century, Erkin Vahidov created his own lyrical devon in the world of literature. Called the 'Yoshlik devoni', this collection was a masterpiece of its time. Thanks to the work of Erkin Vahidov, classical literary traditions were revived. This collection reflects on the poetic works of Erkin Vahidov in the ' Yoshlik devoni' and 'Senga baxtdan taxt tilarman'. 56 pp. Englisch.…
