Hand or machine? A second look at ventilators.
I agree that lignocaine is not a reliable alternative to a beta blocker in the management of adrenergically induced disturbances (Scott, Davie and Stephen, 1971). Lignocaine is a cell membrane stabilizer with a special affinity for neuromuscular tissue and is effective when given intravenously in relatively enormous doses. Like propanidid it may inactivate the baroreceptor mechanism to cause re...
متن کاملA second look at the second law
It is commonly argued that the spectacular increase in order which has occurred on Earth does not violate the second law of thermodynamics because the Earth is an open system, and anything can happen in an open system as long as the entropy increases outside the system compensate the entropy decreases inside the system. However, if we define ‘‘X-entropy’’ to be the entropy associated with any d...
متن کاملA second look at bivalirudin.
a patient's hemostatic capacity by promoting the formation of thrombin. What happened to derail the development of bivalirudin after the initial promising findings? An angioplasty study comparing bivalirudin with UFH was conducted between 1993 and 1994 and reported in 1995. 8 Bivalirudin was found to be at least as effective as high-dose UFH in preventing ischemic complications in patients unde...
متن کاملA Second Look at General Markov ChainsDavid
In the spirit of Chapter 2, this is an unsystematic treatment of scattered topics which are related to topics discussed for reversible chains, but where reversibility plays no essential role. Section 1 treats constructions of stopping times with various optimality properties. Section 2 discusses random spanning trees associated with Markov chains, the probabilistic elaboration of \the matrix-tr...
متن کاملA Second Look at Fischlin's Transformation
Fischlin’s transformation is an alternative to the standard Fiat-Shamir transform to turn a certain class of public key identification schemes into digital signatures (in the random oracle model). We show that signatures obtained via Fischlin’s transformation are existentially unforgeable even in case the adversary is allowed to get arbitrary (yet bounded) information on the entire state of the...
