We present a general method to reduce the error of any extractor. Our method works particularly well in the case that the original extractor extracts up to a constant fraction of the source min-entropy and achieves a polynomially small error. In that case, we are able to reduce the error to (almost) any ε, using only O(log(1/ε)) additional truly random bits (while keeping the other parameters o...
متن کاملClosed Reduction versus Open Reduction and Pin Fixation in Pediatric Type III Supracondylar Humeral Fractures
Background Supracondylar humeral fractures constitute about 60% and 13% of all pediatric elbow and pediatric skeletal fractures, respectively, with a peak incidence in the 5-7 years age group. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare closed reduction with open reduction and pin fixation in type III supracondylar humeral fractures in children younger than...
