Abstract Aim To assess consent forms in the new urgent laparoscopic cholecystectomy theatre (ESAC) list University Hospital of Wales. With procedure-specific becoming more regularly utilised, we need for them our Trust. Method We prospectively assessed first 20 patients who were enrolled ESAC. measured complications against national standards to completeness, including any use abbreviations and...

Plaque production by 55 rhinoviruses in several lines of HeLa cells is reported. Forty-nine types produced macroscopic plaques under the conditions described previously employing 30 mM MgCl(2) and 30 mug/ml of DEAE-dextran in overlay and M HeLa cells. Basically three kinds of plaques were observed: clear large and intermediate sized plaques and small turbid plaques. Five rhinoviruses produced p...

Recent studies of the 55 Cancri system suggest the existence of three planets with periods of ∼15 days, ∼45 days, and ∼5500 days (Marcy et al. 2002). The inner two planets are near the 3:1 mean motion commensurability and it is likely that these two planets became trapped in the resonance while farther from the star and migrated together. As the innermost planet begins to dissipate energy throu...

It is known that Liouville theory can be represented as an SL(2,R) gauged WZW model. We study a two dimensional field theory which can be obtained by analytically continuing some of the variables in the SL(2,R) gauged WZW model. We can derive Liouville theory from the analytically continued model, ( which is a gauged SL(2, C)/SU(2) model, ) in a similar but more rigorous way than from the origi...

We present images of the galaxy NGC 55 at 24, 70, and 160 μm obtained with the Multiband Imaging Photometer for Spitzer (MIPS) instrument aboard the Spitzer Space Telescope. The new images display the far infrared emission in unprecedented detail and demonstrate that the infrared morphology differs dramatically from that at shorter wavelengths. The most luminous emission region in the galaxy is...
