Implantation of permanent pacemakers has become routine and pervasive. Overall use increased by 53% between 1993 and 2009, with a significant steady decline in singlechamber ventricular devices throughout this time period and a significant steady rise in dual-chamber devices until around 2002, when the rates stabilized. Beyond their self-evident therapeutic benefits, pacemakers can have importa...

The new species is a member of an apparently monophyletic group within the genus that includes R. flexile, R. walga, R. himanturi, R. burgeri, R. euzeti, R. hawaiiensis, R. urobatidium, R. paratrygoni, R. ditesticulum, R. tetralobatum, R. margaritense, R. biorchidum, and R. spinicephalum. All of these species have bothridia with medial longitudinal septa, a constriction at mid-bothridium, and, ...

QuEChERS stands for (Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged and Safe) and pronounced as (catchers) is a method that had been developed for multi-pesticide residue analyses in food. This study was conducted to investigate the efficacy of QuEChERS method for analyzing the organochlorine pesticides residues in cow's milk. Twenty organochlorine pesticide namely (Benzene, 1,3,5-trichloro, Tetrachloro...

The concept of transverse correlation vanishing, between the fraction of power contained in the centre and wings of a probe beam, recently introduced [Opt. Commun. 282 (2009) 38543858] is important to be considered when measuring the effective focal length of any refractive index profile. When the latter is not parabolic it is shown that the transverse correlation could vanishe, and this repres...

Recently, Machine Translation (MT) has become a quite popular technology in everyday use through Web services such as Google Translate. Although the different MT approaches provide good results, none of them exploits contextual information like Named Entity (NE) to help user comprehension. In this paper, we present NERITS, a machine translation mashup system using semantic annotation from Wikim...

PRIMARY tuberculosis of the conjunctiva is a rare condition, the existence of which was for long open to question. It has, however, now been shown that the disease can be produced experimentally (Igersheimer, 1922) and later reports have established its clinical occurrence. (Blevgad, 1933; Bruce and Locatcher-Khorazo, 1947). Since the advent of antibiotics, there have been several reports of ca...

Objectives: According to Persian medicine (PM), the uterus is an important organ in women, responsible for purifying blood and nourishing fetus. Each has a specific temperament distinct from whole-body based on PM. Dystemperament occurs when body or Mizaj (Persian word temperament) deviates what considered normal, resulting malfunction. Many gynecological disorders described PM conventional med...

Introduction: Distant pointing is becoming common in both work and domestic environments, and is used for a variety of applications (Bateman, Mandryk, Gutwin, & Xiao, 2013). In order to interact with a computer system in extrapersonal space, users commonly use novel directpointing devices to aim at a specific position that they want to select, and the visual feedback is provided by a cursor to ...

The use of implicit formulae in the solution of stiff ODEs gives rise to systems of nonlinear equations which are usually solved iteratively by a modified Newton scheme. The linear algebra costs associated with such schemes may form a substantial part of the overall cost of the solution. The work of W. H. Enright and M. S. Kamel attempts to reduce the cost of the iteration by automatically tran...
