NON-INVASIVE INVESTIGATIONS IN HEROIN USERS AND NON-USERS-A CASE CONTROL STUDY

bjective: To compare heroin users with their age and gender matched relatives as regards non-invasive investigations like chest x-ray, electrocardiography (ECG) and 2D-echocardiography. Study Design: Case control study. Place and Duration o...

A millifluidic study of cell-to-cell heterogeneity in growth-rate and cell-division capability in populations of isogenic cells of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.

To address possible cell-to-cell heterogeneity in growth dynamics of isogenic cell populations of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, we developed a millifluidic drop-based device that not only allows the analysis of populations grown from single ce...

The Balanced Opioid Initiative: protocol for a clustered, sequential, multiple-assignment randomized trial to construct an adaptive implementation strategy to improve guideline-concordant opioid prescribing in primary care

Abstract Background Rates of opioid prescribing tripled in the USA between 1999 and 2015 and were associated with significant increases in opioid misuse and overdose death. Roughly half of all opioids are prescribed in primary care. Althoug...

Utility of Bone Marrow Cell Block in the Diagnosis of Haematological Disorders: A Cross-sectional Study

Introduction: The examination of Bone Marrow Aspirate (BMA) smears and Biopsies (BMBx) are well established in the diagnosis of various haematological and non-haematological disorders. While both techniques have unique advantages over the o...

Educational Institutions of Labor Reserves in Western Siberia at the Beginning of the Great Patriotic War (1941–1942)

The evacuation of industrial enterprises, educational institutions, and millions of Soviet citizens during the Great Patriotic War is a tragic page in the history of Russia. This complex operation involved the evacuation and placement of hu...

Linking Data for Mothers and Babies in De-Identified Electronic Health Data.

ObjectiveLinkage of longitudinal administrative data for mothers and babies supports research and service evaluation in several populations around the world. We established a linked mother-baby cohort using pseudonymised, population-level d...

A Model of Social Distancing for Interacting Age-Distributed Multi-Populations: An Analysis of Students’ In-Person Return to Schools

Because of the current scenario of the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) pandemic in Brazil, whose vaccination campaign is in the initial stage, government authorities have pointed out towards the complete reopening of the economy. And recently for the...

OFDM AF Variable Gain Relay System for the Next Generation Mobile Cellular

In this paper we present analytical performance evaluation of a dual-hop OFDM amplify-andforward (AF) variable gain (VG) relay system implementing ordered subcarrier mapping (SCM) at the relay station (R), considered to be a very interestin...

How to Lie with Statistics

Darrell Huff runs the gamut of every popularly used type of statistic, probes such things as the sample study, the tabulation method, the interview technique, or the way the results are derived from the figures, and points up the countless ...

The cartoon guide to statistics

Updated version featuring all new material. If you have ever looked for P-values by shopping at P mart, tried to watch the Bernoulli Trails on People's Court, or think that the standard deviation is a criminal offense in six states, then yo...

INTRODUCTORY STATISTICS

There are numerous probability distributions or density functions. Empirical distributions rarely go by the name of densities. The normal density has figured prominent in the history of statistics largely because it serves as a useful model...

Non-fluorinated phosphonium-sulfonate ionic liquids as candidates for thermally demanding applications: thermal stability, viscosity and liquid-state temperature ranges.

Experimental examination on physical and radiation shielding features of boro-silicate glasses doped with varying amounts of BaO

Investigations were conducted on the addition of barium's impact on the radiation shielding and physical attributes of five different glasses, designated S1–S5, with varying BaO contents. Using two point sources namely Co60 and Cs137 along ...

The Carbon Budget of Land Conversion: Sugarcane Expansion and Implications for a Sustainable Bioenergy Landscape in Southeastern United States

ABSTRACT The expansion of sugarcane onto land currently occupied by improved (IMP) and semi‐native (SN) pastures will reshape the U.S. bioenergy landscape. We combined biometric, ground‐based and eddy covariance methods to investigate the i...

Building integrated renewable energy

About one-third of the primary energy in the world is consumed by buildings. A large amount of CO 2 emission due to building energy consumption has threatened the sustainable development of the world. Improvement on the building energy perf...

Life cycle assessment of a renewable energy generation system with a vanadium redox flow battery in a NZEB household

Buildings are responsible for a significant part of the global energy consumption. Besides the need to improve their energy efficiency, new buildings also need to generate their own energy, preferably from renewable sources, to become more ...

Renewable energy and geopolitics: A review

This article reviews the literature on the geopolitics of renewable energy. It finds that while the roots of this literature can be traced back to the 1970s and 1980s, most of it has been published from 2010 onwards. The following aggregate...
