A postabortion care program was implemented in 11 primary and secondary health facilities in rural Tanzania in order to decentralize comprehensive postabortion care to community level by upgrading midlevel providers to perform manual vacuum aspiration (MVA). Information about evacuation procedure and family planning (FP) service provided was obtained from the health facilities. In all, 2025 eva...

introduction: despite wide use of hyoscine by midwives and doctors as an adjunct to labor, the obstetrics literature contains few references to the effect of this drug. this study was a double blinded, randomized controlled trial of primigravidas in iran to determine the effects of hyoscine intravenous injection on parturition (labor). methods:one hundred primigravidas in uncomplicated spontane...

Then Γ0(N) is a discrete subgroup of G. Note that Γ0(1) = SL2(Z). Now we make three choices that determine our space of modular forms. We pick an integer k, called the weight, a positive integer N , called the level, and a Dirichlet character χ : Z/NZ → C, called the nebentypus. If you’ve never seen modular forms before, you should immediately specialize to the easiest case N = 1, in which case...

For this paper we assume familiarity with the basics of the theory of modular forms as may be found, for instance, in Serre’s classic introduction [12]. A weakly holomorphic modular form of weight k ∈ 2Z for Γ = PSL2(Z) is a holomorphic function f on the upper half-plane that satisfies f( cτ+d ) = (cτ + d)f(τ) for all ( a b c d ) ∈ Γ and that has a q-expansion of the form f(τ) = ∑ n≥n0 a(n)q , ...

background: difficulty in cervical dilatation is a hard situation during the procedure of diagnostic dilatation and curettage in some cases. this study was performed to evaluate the effect of vaginal misoprostol for cervical priming before diagnostic dilatation and curettage. methods: in this study 56 women were selected as the candidates for dilatation and curettage. the study was double blind...

The paper deals with sets of distributions which are given by moment conditions for the distributions and convex constraints on derivatives of their c d fs A general albeit simple method for the study of their extremal struc ture extremal decomposition and topological or measure theoretical proper ties is developed Its power is demonstrated by the application to bell shaped distributions Extrem...
