Let f : F1 →F2 be a homeomorphism, and M = M1 UI M2. In this paper, under certain assumptions for the attaching surface Fi, we show that if both M1 and M2 have Heegaavd splittings with distance at least 2(g(M1)+ g(M2))+ 1, then g(M) = g(M1)+g(M2).展开更多

The aim of study was to compare satisfaction, anxiety and shame between NDP and conventional single pants (CSP). METHODS: Total 160 consecutive examinees were randomly divided into NDP and CSP group. Before colonoscopy, questionnaires identifying state and trait anxiety were completed. After colonoscopy, questionnaires for overall satisfaction (Group Health Association of America 9) and pants-specific satisfaction (5-20), state anxiety (20-80), and shame (6-24) were interviewed. RESULTS: Pants-specific satisfaction scores regarding willingness to repeat colonoscopy using same pants (3.3 ± 0.8 vs 2.1 ± 0.9, P < 0.001) and recommendation of same pants to other people (3.3 ± 0.7 vs 2.0 ± 1.0, P < 0.001) were significantly higher in NDP than CSP groups. State anxiety (33.0 ± 7.0 vs 35.4 ± 6.9, P = 0.028) and shame (6.6 ± 1.5 vs 8.1 ± 3.2, P = 0.001) after colonoscopy was lower in NDP group compared with CSP group. CONCLUSION: The NDP contribute to increase satisfaction and decrease anxiety and shame after colonoscopy.展开更多

Washing is vital for denim and other casual garments for bringing some interesting washed-down effects. Unwashed condition does not exhibit customer’s desired look, but after washing, the same garment becomes prominent in improved appearance, softness, comfort, light and dark shade, and patchy look that creates customer’s absolute satisfaction. Garment washing process increases the appeal with a lucrative outlook brought about by mechanical or chemical treatments in dry or wet conditions. This study gives an indication of different types of washing processes and the change of physical and chemical properties due to application of wet and dry washing processes as an imparting desired effect on garments. The aim of the project is to find out the changes that occur in physical properties of denim when it is subjected to stone enzyme wash on 12-ounce, 10-ounce and 8-ounce denim pants. Three different shades, namely dark shade, medium shade and light wash, were taken into consideration. Different behaviors and properties of the garments were found in the physical properties of the samples.展开更多
