Double Master’s exercise tests were performed in the course of general or periodic examinations on 1,375 patients without angina pectoris. These patients were either asymptomatic or had nonspecific chest pain, and patients with angina pectoris or previous myocardial infarction were specifically excluded. Initial tests were negative in 1,269 (92 percent) and positive in 106 (8 percent). Follow-u...

The objective of present study was to derive the economic values for number of inseminations to conception, calving interval, milk yield and stillbirth, using economic data of 10 Iranian Holstein herds. The economic values were derived by using the profit function methods and differentiating a profit equation with respect to the traits of interest. The cow fertility costs herd amortization or r...

We have studied ∼ 2100 early-type galaxies in the SDSS DR3 which have been detected by the GALEX Medium Imaging Survey (MIS), in the redshift range 0 < z < 0.11. Combining GALEX UV photometry with corollary optical data from the SDSS, we find that, at a 95 percent confidence level, at least ∼ 30 percent of galaxies in this sample have UV to optical colours consistent with some recent star forma...

Researchers have modified existing index structures into ones optimized for CPU cache performance in main memory database environments. A Cache Sensitive B+-Tree is one of them. It is designed to minimize the impact of cache misses for B+-Trees and it has been known to be more effective than other types of main memory index structure including T-Trees. In this paper, we introduce a Cache Sensit...

While the equation above is correct, it is not very useful for incremental updates since the equation above updates the checksum C, rather than the 1’s complement of the checksum, ̃C, which is the value stored in the checksum field. In addition, it suffers because the notation does not clearly specify that all arithmetic, including the unary negation, must be performed one’s complement, and so i...

introduction several methods have been developed to aid in selecting a network of biodiversity protected areas. one of these methods is artificial intelligence which includes a number of different computer algorithms that use an objective function to find the best solution. an algorithm is a mathematical process or a set of rules used for problem solving. recently, site selection algorithms hav...

OBJECTIVES To determine the effects of intraarticular step-off and lateral meniscectomy on the alignment of the articular axis, contact area, and pressures for lateral tibial plateau fractures. DESIGN Biomechanical cadaver study. INTERVENTION Six fresh cadaveric knees were used. A simulated split fracture of the lateral tibial plateau was reproducibly created by osteotomies, and articular s...
