A multicentric, randomized, doubleblind, placebo controlled parallel study was designed to observe a rise in serum prolactin (PRL) levels (primary outcome variable). The other variables studied included weight gain of infant, decrease in volume and frequency of supplementary feeds in those mothers who were From the Departments of Pharmacology and Pediatrics, Maulana Azad Medical College, New De...

A penalization method is applied to model the interaction of large Mach number compressible flows with obstacles. A supplementary term is added to the compressible Navier-Stokes system, seeking to simulate the effect of the Brinkmanpenalization technique used in incompressible flow simulations including obstacles. We present a computational study comparing numerical results obtained with this m...

Background & Objective: The her2 amplification plays an important role in breast cancer management. Therefore, there is a need for using supplementary molecular methods in IHC equivocal cases. Present study has been conducted to determine the effects of clinicopathological variables on her2 gene amplification by chromogenic in situ hybridization (CISH) in IHC ...

A highly efficient photovoltaic (PV) system requires a maximum power point tracker to extract peak from PV modules. The conventional variable step-size incremental conductance (INC) tracking (MPPT) technique has two main drawbacks. First, it uses pre-set scaling factor, which manual tuning under different irradiance levels. Second, adapts the slope of characteristics curve vary step-size, means...

Abstract: We consider a discrete-time 1 X Geo G retrial queue with general retrial times, and introduce working vacations and vacation interruption policy into the retrial queue. Firstly, we analyze the stationary condition for the embedded Markov chain at the departure epochs. Secondly, using supplementary variable method, we obtain the stationary probability distribution and some performance ...

Abstract: This paper presents a mathematical model to perform availability analysis of a robot-safety system having n-redundant robots and m-redundant built-in safety units with common-cause failures. The system failure rates and the partially failed system repair rates are assumed constant, and the failed system repair time is assumed arbitrarily distributed. The supplementary variable method ...
