Shelf-life of scientific discoveries is usually less than few decades because science itself is an ever evolving discipline. Therefore, it is truly remarkable that pyloromyotomy described by Conrad Ramstedt (Fig. 1) is celebrating centennial this year. In October 1912, Ramstedt described the cure of hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (HPS) and that serendipitous discovery has stood the test of 100 y...

We show that a lattice-ordered field (not necessarily commutative) is totally ordered if and only if each square is positive, answering a generalized question of Conrad and Dauns [6] in the affirmative. As a consequence, any lattice-ordered skew-field in [5] is totally ordered. Furthermore , we note that each lattice order determined by a pre-positive cone P on a skew-filed F is linearly ordere...

The earliest examples of indexes in more than one language and in several scripts are those found in herbals of the late 15th and early 16th century. The features of these indexes are analyzed, and the gradual development of name and subject indexes, their alphabetical arrangement by various methods, and finally the systematic display in several languages and scripts in the works of Conrad Gess...
