the concepts of free modules, projective modules, injective modules and the likeform an important area in module theory. the notion of free fuzzy modules was introducedby muganda as an extension of free modules in the fuzzy context. zahedi and ameriintroduced the concept of projective and injective l-modules. in this paper we give analternate definition for projective l-modules. we prove that e...

an r-module m is called strongly noncosingular if it has no nonzero rad-small (cosingular) homomorphic image in the sense of harada. it is proven that (1) an r-module m is strongly noncosingular if and only if m is coatomic and noncosingular; (2) a right perfect ring r is artinian hereditary serial if and only if the class of injective modules coincides with the class of (strongly) noncosingula...

A baffle puncture is a challenging procedure but can be safely done using direct visualization of the region of interest. To our knowledge, however, it has never been performed in a patient with dextrocardia. We present a 62-year-old male with dextrocardia, right isomerism, congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries, persistent left-sided superior and inferior caval veins, atria...

This patient was seen for the first time at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh at 34 days of age with cyanosis and grunting respirations of two weeks duration. Cardiac catheterization and angiography confirmed the diagnosis of transposition of the great arteries (TGA) with an intact ventricular septum. Following balloon atrial septostomy, systemic arterial saturation rose to 80% from 34%. Repeat...

The performance of corrugated baffles inserted in a rectangular channel heat exchanger is investigated. The fluid flows and thermal distribution are determined via numerical simulations. The working fluid has a shear thinning behavior. The influence of the baffle design is explored, we interest to the “wavy” shape. The corrugation angle of baffle (α) is changed from 0° (i.e. a straight...

let $r=oplus_{nin bbb n_0}r_n$ be a noetherian homogeneous ring with local base ring $(r_0,frak{m}_0)$, $m$ and $n$ two finitely generated graded $r$-modules. let $t$ be the least integer such that $h^t_{r_+}(m,n)$ is not minimax. we prove that $h^j_{frak{m}_0r}(h^t_{r_+}(m,n))$ is artinian for $j=0,1$. also, we show that if ${rm cd}(r_{+},m,n)=2$ and $tin bbb n_0$, then $h^t_{frak{m}_0r}(h^2_{...

OBJECTIVES Atrial switch procedures for transposition of the great arteries are associated with reoperations mainly for systemic ventricular dysfunction and baffle complications. This study aims at identifying the results of reoperations following the Senning operation. METHODS Records of 314 hospital survivors who had undergone the Senning operation were reviewed for details concerning cardi...

Fourteen patients have been studied hemodynamically 4-10 years (mean 5.5 years) after the Mustard operation for transposition of the great arteries. Investigation was directed principally at 1) the detection of baffle obstruction by catheterization of the pulmonary veins (PV) and venae cavae and recording of simultaneous right ventricular (RV) and pulmonary capillary wedge pressures (PCW); 2) t...
