Pull-stream is a JavaScript demand-driven functional design pattern based on callback functions that enables the creation and easy composition of independent modules that are used to create streaming applications. It is used in popular open source projects and the community around it has created over a hundred compatible modules. While the description of the pull-stream design pattern may seem ...

OBJECTIVE To enable early prediction of strong traction force vacuum extraction. DESIGN Observational cohort. SETTING Karolinska University Hospital delivery ward, tertiary unit. POPULATION AND SAMPLE SIZE Term mid and low metal cup vacuum extraction deliveries June 2012-February 2015, n = 277. METHODS Traction forces during vacuum extraction were collected prospectively using an intell...

STUDY DESIGN Biomechanical study. PURPOSE To determine the effect of density, insertion angle and reinsertion on pull-out strength of pedicle screw in single and two screw-rod configurations. OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE Pedicle screw pull-out studies have involved single screw construct, whereas two screws and rod constructs are always used in spine fusions. Extrapolation of results using the si...

The objective of this study was to compare the kinematic and kinetic differences in snatch performances of elite 69-kg men and women weightlifters, the only category common to both genders. The heaviest lifts performed by 9 men and 9 women weightlifters competing in 69-kg weight class in Group A in the 2010 World Weightlifting Championship were analyzed. The snatch lifts were recorded using 2 c...

Background: Despite high coverage of indoor interventions like insecticide-treated nets, mosquito-borne infections persist, partly because of outdoor-biting, early-biting and insecticide-resistant vectors. Push-pull systems, where mosquitoes are repelled from humans and attracted to nearby lethal targets, may constitute effective complementary interventions. Methods: A partially randomized cros...

In this paper we introduce the category Apro-ANR called the approximate pro-category of ANR’s, whose objects are all systems of ANR’s and whose morphisms are obtained as equivalence classes of system maps for some equivalence relation. We show that any 2-sink X f −→ Z g ←− Y in Apro-ANR admits a weak pull-back and it admits a pull-back if they are systems of compact ANR’s. Moreover, it admits a...
