This paper is the second part of a series of two papers dealing with bulking: a way to define quasi-order on cellular automata by comparing space-time diagrams up to rescaling. In the present paper, we introduce three notions of simulation between cellular automata and study the quasi-order structures induced by these simulation relations on the whole set of cellular automata. Various aspects o...

It has recently been postulated that dietary fibre acts as a substrate for colonic flora, and that the resultant microbial growth bulks the faeces. Antimicrobial therapy was used in this study to assess the effect of reduction in colonic microbial proliferation on faecal output in human subjects on a constant dietary fibre intake. Six healthy young male subjects were maintained on constant dail...

Evidence is lacking on the best treatment for women presenting with recurrent stress urinary incontinence. PURSUIT a randomised trial of urethral bulking agent injection versus surgical intervention. It will provide high-quality evidence to aid counselling and inform choice.
