The most common approach for development, testing programs include some corrective actions during testing and some delayed fixes incorporated at the end of test. This paper presents an Extended model that addresses this practical situation given in the application part of sec 3.In this application the testing mode is considered as active mode and the delayed fixes mode as at the delivery. The r...

PURPOSE To compare umbilical arterial gas parameters in the second twin of twin pregnancies according to the mode of delivery. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of twin deliveries after 34 weeks of gestation for 3 years. Excluding the cases which underwent emergency cesarean delivery during trial of labor, a total of 79 twin gestations had umbilical arterial blood gas va...

BACKGROUND The birth of a first child is an important event in a woman's life. Delivery psychological impacts vary depending on whether delivery has been positively or negatively experienced. Delivery experience determinants have been identified but the understanding of their expression according to the mode of delivery is poorly documented. The purpose of the study was to determine important e...

OBJECTIVE To compare structural and functional outcomes and efficiency of diode laser photocoagulation for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) when delivered in a pulsed mode versus a near-continuous mode. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted of 138 patients who underwent diode laser photocoagulation for threshold ROP using either pulsed or near-continuous delivery. Laser-related complica...

OBJECTIVE Despite the current prevalence of preterm births, no clear guidelines exist on the optimal mode of delivery. Our objective was to investigate the effects of mode of delivery on neonatal outcomes among premature infants in a large cohort. STUDY DESIGN We applied a retrospective cohort study design to a database of 6,408 births. Neonates were stratified by birth weight and a composite...

This paper describes the results and implications of a correlational study of learning styles and learner satisfaction. The relationship of these empirical concepts was examined in the context of traditional versus e-blended modes of course delivery in an introductory graduate research course. Significant results indicated that the visual side of the visual-verbal dimension of students’ learnin...

OBJECTIVES To examine the association between postpartum urinary tract infection and intended mode of delivery as well as actual mode of delivery. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS All live births in Denmark between 2004 and 2010 (n=450 856). Births were classified by intended caesarean delivery (n=45 053) or intended vaginal delivery (n=405 803), and by actual mod...
