Although lung diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DL(CO)) is a widely used test of diffusive O2 transfer, few studies have directly related DL(CO) to O2-diffusing capacity (DL(O2)); none has used the components of Dl(CO), i.e., conductance of alveolar membrane and capillary blood, to predict DL(O2) from rest to exercise. To understand the relationship between DL(CO) and DL(O2) at matched le...

A new computational method based on Wilson wavelets is proposed for solving a class of nonlinear stochastic It^{o}-Volterra integral equations. To do this a new stochastic operational matrix of It^{o} integration for Wilson wavelets is obtained. Block pulse functions (BPFs) and collocation method are used to generate a process to forming this matrix. Using these basis functions and their operat...

Perovskite-Compatible Transparent Nanostencil Lithography In article number 2300570, Hsien-Yi Hsu, Bin Han, and co-workers develop a focused ion beam-assisted transparent stencil lithography for the fabrication of organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite nanodevices. The provides resolution down to 100 nm, along with high reusability. This technique can effectively support miniaturization integratio...

disconnects and defects in care – such as duplication, poor integration between services or avoidable adverse events – are costly to the health system and potentially harmful to patients and families. for patients living with multiple chronic conditions, such disconnects can be particularly detrimental. lean is an approach to optimizing value by reducing waste (eg, duplication and defects) and ...

This study investigated the export-led growth hypothesis in Nigeria. The examined long-run and short-run equilibrium relationships between exports; imports economic over period. used Johansen co-integration technique, granger causality, vector error correction mechanism analysis of data. variables were found to have same order integration empirical evidence strongly suggested existence relation...

this study considers the price transmission mechanism between farm and retail levels of beef market in east azerbaijan with weekly prices over 1377:1 to 1390:52 periods. to this end, using advantages of multivariate models, hansen- seo (2002)'s two- regime threshold vector error correction model (tvecm) was estimated by the maximum likelihood approach for evaluate the price transmission me...
