When Less is More
engine and airframe manufacturers for decades have cited the direct relationship between engine wear and high exhaust gas temperature (EGT) in recommending that operators use less than maximum takeoff thrust whenever possible. While the cost benefits of reduced-thrust takeoffs are thoroughly documented, the safety benefits are not as well understood. Thus, there is a common perception that usin...

If all this piece does is open up the question of whether less is more —if all it does is remind the reader that this is a question, and that our answers to it have important repercussions— then it will have served its purpose. Many ethicists in the ancient tradition argued that human lives could be ...
متن کاملResuscitation: when less is more.
I N THIS issue of ANESTHESIOLOGY, Li et al. 1 report on a laboratory study of resuscitation from uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock in rats. For those who have not followed this topic in the trauma literature, the results might seem counterintuitive—even heretical. Resuscitate to a lower blood pressure? How could that possibly be better? Although the physiologic reasons for this enigmatic effect ar...
متن کاملPulmonary emphysema: when more is less.
Pulmonary emphysema results from the loss of intricate alveolar architecture and progressive simplification of small and highly effective gas-exchanging units into large, inefficient cyst-like spaces. Because of the loss of alveolar gas-exchanging units and the capillary bed within them, blood oxygen levels eventually fall and pressures within the pulmonary circulation rise. Recent insights fro...
