metabolic alkalosis is characterized by high hco3- as it is seen in chronic respiratory acidosis, but ph differentiates the two disorders. there is no characteristic symptom or sign. orthostatic hypotension may be encountered. weakness and hyporeflexia occur if serum k+ is markerdly low. tetany and neuromuscular irritability occur rarely. we report the results of retrospective data analysis of ...

The classic GI=G=1 queueing model of which the tail of the service time and/or the interarrival time distribution behaves as t ?v S(t) for t ! 1, 1 < v < 2 and S(t) a slowly varying function at innnity, is investigated for the case that the traac load a approaches one. Heavy-traac limit theorems are derived for the case that these tails have a similar behaviour at innnity as well as for the cas...

In this paper we introduce a generalization of Meir-Keeler contraction forrandom mapping T : Ω×C → C, where C be a nonempty subset of a Banachspace X and (Ω,Σ) be a measurable space with being a sigma-algebra of sub-sets of. Also, we apply such type of random fixed point results to prove theexistence and unicity of a solution for an special random integral equation.

Introduction: It was shown in a previous study, that MCPIP, a cilostamide derivative, increased atrial contraction force without changing contraction rate. To improve this property, two new derivatives of cilostamide were synthesized and their effects on PDE3 activity and isolated rat atria contraction were investigated. Methods: The inhibitory effect of each compound on PDE3 enzyme was dete...
