The present study was performed to investigate the effects of two groups of sires with 'medium' and 'high' weight gain potentials (M-sires and H-sires, respectively) on growth of their progenies on varying planes of nutrition during the growing-finishing period. The ADG of the M-sires' progeny was greater (P < 0.05) than that of the H-sires' progeny (0.51 vs. 0.47 kg) during a 26- to 29-d early...

BACKGROUND Although intravenous morphine titration is widely used to obtain rapid and complete postoperative pain relief, the relationship between measurement of pain and morphine requirements varies, and the evolution of pain during titration is poorly understood. METHODS Intravenous morphine titration was administered as a bolus of 2 (body weight < or = 60 kg) or 3 mg (body weight > 60 kg) ...

one of the characteristics of pecuniary claims at the time of submitting the lawsuit is obligation of the plaintiff to mention the value of relief sought. the amount of relief sought plays a key role in the lawsuit which determines the competent court, the possibility of appeals. basically, the value of relief is determined by the plaintiff which may be protested by the defendant. this protest ...

Background: Chronic pancreatitis being one of the most distressing medical condition, is often complicated by common bile duct obstruction, fibrosis and acute inflammation pancreas. Pain, weight loss diabetes are in these patients. Surgery ultimate option after treatment fails to solve distress. Longitudinal Pancreatico-jejunostomy widely practiced all over world as choice. Pancreatico-gastrost...

Attribute estimation is an important machine learning problem. It is contained in many tasks, e.g., feature subset selection, constructive induction, decision and regression tree building. Relief algorithms are one of the most successful heuristic measures for solving this problem. The quality estimates of the Relief algorithms have commonly been interpreted as the difference of two probabiliti...

Objective: To determine the net moments on the glenohueral joint and elbow joint during wheelchair activities. Design: Kinematics and external forces were measured durng wheelchair activities of daily living (level propulsion, iding on a slope, weight-relief lifting, reaching, negotiating a urb) and processed in an inverse dynamics biomechanic odel. Setting: Biomechanics laboratory. Participant...

Sucrose solution is recommended as relevant pain relief management in neonates during acute painful procedures; however, only a few studies have analyzed the potentially adverse effects of sucrose administration to preterm neonates. The goal of this study was to examine the potential side effects of sucrose for pain relief in preterm infants, assessing feeding and weight gain during hospitaliza...

In Machine Learning Process, several issues arise in identifying a suitable and quality set of features from which a classification model for a particular domain to be constructed. This paper addresses the problem of feature selection for machine learning through discretization approach. RELIEF is considered to be one of the most successful algorithms for assessing the quality of features. RELI...
