1. Introduction In the study of differential and integral equations, one often deals with certain integral inequalities. The Gronwall-Bellman inequality and its various linear and nonlinear generalizations are crucial in the discussion of existence, uniqueness, continuation, boundedness, oscillation, and stability properties of solutions. The literature on such inequalities and their applications is vast; see 1–6, and the references are given therein. Usually, the integrals concerning such inequalities have regular or continuous kernels, but some problems arising from theoretical or practical phenomena require us to solve integral inequalities with singular kernels. For example, Henry 7 used this type of integral inequalities to prove global existence and exponential decay results for a parabolic Cauchy problem; Sano and Kunimatsu 8 gave a sufficient condition for stabilization of semilinear parabolic distributed systems by making use of a modification of Henry-type inequalities; Ye et al. 9 proved a generalization of this type of inequalities and used it to study the dependence of the solution on the order and the initial condition of a fractional differential equation. All such inequalities are proved by an iteration argument, and the estimation formulas are expressed by a complicated power series which are sometimes not very convenient for applications. To avoid this shortcoming, Medved˘ 10 presented a new method for studying Henry-type inequalities and established

explicit bounds with relatively simple formulas which are similar to the classic Gronwall˘ Bellman inequalities. Very recently, Ma and Pe˘cari´c 11 used a modification of Medved’s method to study certain class of nonlinear inequalities of Henry-type, which generalized some known results and were used as handy and effective tools in the study of
