Objective/Context: This paper analyzes factors related to political incentives for public organizations to cease operations.It suggests that political turnover has a negative effect on the duration of these types of entities.However, this effect differs according to the size of the governing coalition.Methodology: Semi-parametric models and Cox reg
The Effect of Sampling Bias on Evaluating the Diversity and Distribution Patterns of Iranian Spiders (Arachnida: Araneae)
Although spiders constitute a highly diversified group of animals, the knowledge regarding their geographic distribution (i.e., the so-called Wallacean shortfall) and diversity patterns is incipient on a global scale; while attempts to explore such patterns have been made for the highly diversified Neotropical fauna, several Old World regions Shell
Acute ischemic stroke in a patient with gastrointestinal complaints of COVID-19 infection
The most important pandemic in the last century triggered by SARS-CoV-2 infection is ongoing, and longterm implications are still unknown.We report the case of a 65-year old man, who presented with sudden onset of right-sided limb weakness, facial asymmetry, and dysarthria, accompanied by vomiting and headache.The initial neurological exam suggeste
Asymptotics solutions of a singularly perturbed integro-differential fractional order derivative equation with rapidly oscillating coefficients
In this paper, the regularization method of S.A.Lomov is generalized to the singularly perturbed integrodifferential fractional-order derivative equation with rapidly oscillating coefficients.The main goal of the work is to reveal the influence of the oscillating components on the structure of the asymptotics of the solution to this problem.The cas
