PURPOSE To determine the predictive values of D-dimer assay, Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events (GRACE) and Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) risk scores for adverse outcome in patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 234 patients (mean age: 57.2±11.7 years, 75.2% were males) hospitalized with NSTEMI were included....

AIM The aim of this paper was to investigate the value of Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events (GRACE) and thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) risk scores for risk stratification and prognosis in female patients with non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS). METHODS Non-elderly (<65 years) and elderly (≥65 years) female patients with NSTE-ACS (totally 869 cases...

We assess the significance of groundwater storage for seasonal streamflow forecasts by evaluating its contribution to interannual streamflow anomalies in the 29 tributary sub-basins of the Colorado River. Monthly and annual changes in total basin storage are simulated by two implementations of the Variable Infiltration Capacity (VIC) macroscale hydrology model – the standard release of the mode...

[1] Ocean bottom pressure estimates from Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) have been validated by comparisons with an array of in situ bottom pressure measurements. The 600 km by 600 km array comprised 46 bottom pressure sensors that were part of the Kuroshio Extension System Study (KESS). Validations in other ocean regions have been limited by available data to pointwise bottom p...

Height variations caused by mass change make an important contribution to the tectonic uplift of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP). To study deformation attributable hydrological loading and real potential vertical motion, satellite gravity data from Gravity Recovery Climate Experiment (GRACE) GRACE Follow-On (GRACE-FO) with Global Land Data Assimilation System (GLDAS) Positioning (GPS) are adopted e...

The global water cycle is generally viewed as the cycling of masses among land, ocean, and atmosphere. This predominantly occurs at annual time scale between land constituting seasonal cycle. NASA’s Gravity Recovery Climate Experiment (GRACE) GRACE-Follow On missions can directly observe describe changes in its intensity. We present amplitudes ocean mass anomalies 04/2002 11/2020. find that ave...

although the concept of the ‘rule of grace’ can be accurately deduced through some qur’anic verses and traditions (hadiths), the mu‘tazilites among all theological denominations pioneered in its extraction, compilation and application within the context of theology. the present article discusses the attitude of shi‘ite theology toward the above-mentioned rule within the framework of three histo...

The Tibetan Plateau (TP) has been observed by satellite optical remote sensing, altimetry, and gravimetry for a variety of geophysical parameters, including water storage change. However, each of these sensors has its respective limitation in the parameters observed, accuracy and spatial-temporal resolution. Here, we utilized an integrated approach to combine remote sensing imagery, digital ele...

[1] Northern India and its surroundings, home to roughly 600 million people, is probably the most heavily irrigated region in the world. Temporal changes in Earth’s gravity field in this region as recorded by the GRACE satellite mission, reveal a steady, large-scale mass loss that we attribute to excessive extraction of groundwater. Combining the GRACE data with hydrological models to remove na...
