OBJECTIVE To evaluate the association between the number of pharmacological inappropriateness and possible factors related with it. METHODS All polyphatological patients of the IMPACTO project in a tertiary hospital were included (July 2010-March 2012). The pharmacist performed the interventions based on a combined strategy that included the modified MAI and the STOPP-START criteria. A greate...

This paper is a case study in proof mining applied to non-effective proofs in nonlinear functional anlysis. More specifically, we are concerned with the fixed point theory of nonexpansive selfmappings f of convex sets C in normed spaces. We study the Krasnoselski iteration as well as more general so-called Krasnoselski-Mann iterations. These iterations converge to fixed points of f only under s...

Aim: Aim of study was to effect perioperative hospital stay before onset complications on subsequent morbidity and mortality. Materials methods: We evaluated all the patients operated for gastrointestinal hepatobiliary surgery between April 2016 October 2019 prospectively various factors responsible mortality including pre-morbidity pre-mortality stay. Morbidity defined as clavien dindo grade 3...

Background: In developed countries, overweight and obesity in children and adults is considered as basic problems. Several surveys show increasing trend of childhood obesity in developing countries, particularly in the Middle East and because of its risky role on people’s health, researchers aimed to assess the relations between birth weight and BMI in primary school children of Rasht/Iran. Mat...

The Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney statistic is commonly used for a distribution-free comparison of two groups. One requirement for its use is that the sample sizes of the two groups are fixed. This is violated in some of the applications such as medical imaging studies and diagnostic marker studies; in the former, the violation occurs since the number of correctly localized abnormal images is random, w...

In this paper we show Whitney’s fibering conjecture in the real and complex, local analytic and global algebraic cases. For a given germ of complex or real analytic set, we show the existence of a stratification satisfying a strong (real arc-analytic with respect to all variables and analytic with respect to the parameter space) trivialization property along each stratum. We call such a trivial...
