Examples of conditions that are not necessarily pseudoscientific include: Conditions determined to be somatic in nature, including mass psychogenic illnesses. Medicalized conditions that are not pathogenic in nature, such as aging, childbirth, pregnancy, sexual addiction, baldness, jet lag, and halitosis. [2]
Pseudodominance is the situation in which the inheritance of a recessive trait mimics a dominant pattern. [1]Normally, two recessive alleles need to be inherited (one from each parent) for the recessive trait to be expressed but recessive merely means that the trait is only expressed in the absence of the dominant alleles.
Pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism (PPHP) is an inherited disorder, [1] named for its similarity to pseudohypoparathyroidism in presentation. It is more properly Albright hereditary osteodystrophy, although without resistance of parathyroid hormone (PTH), as frequently seen in that affliction.
2012 phenomenon – a range of eschatological beliefs that cataclysmic or otherwise transformative events would occur on or around 21 December 2012. This date was regarded as the end-date of a 5,126-year-long cycle in the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar and as such, festivities to commemorate the date took place on 21 December 2012 in countries where the Maya civilization had formerly ...
A subset I of a partially ordered set (P, ≤) is a pseudoideal, if the following condition holds: For every subset S of P having at most two elements that has a supremum in P , if S ⊆ {\displaystyle \subseteq } I then LU( S ) ⊆ {\displaystyle \subseteq } I .
The contrapositive of the third condition exactly expresses that the associated relation (the partial order) is transitive. So that property is called co-transitivity. Using the asymmetry condition, one quickly derives the theorem that a pseudo-order is actually transitive as well. Transitivity is common axiom in the classical definition of a ...
Condition 2 means that X is a non-branching simplicial complex. [4]Condition 3 means that X is a strongly connected simplicial complex. [4]If we require Condition 2 to hold only for (n−1)-simplexes in sequences of n-simplexes in Condition 3, we obtain an equivalent definition only for n=2.
As sequential compactness is an equivalent condition to compactness for metric spaces this implies that compactness is an equivalent condition to pseudocompactness for metric spaces also. The weaker result that every compact space is pseudocompact is easily proved: the image of a compact space under any continuous function is compact, and every ...
