Background Granisetron is a first-generation 5-HT3-receptor antagonist that has shown efficacy in preventing postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). In this randomized double-blind parallel-group clinical trial, we assessed the efficacy of generic granisetron versus Kytril®, in the prevention of PONV in patients undergoing general anesthesia for gynaecological surgeries. Method One hundred an...

the non-definite multi-attribute decision making problem is the further expansion of research to the traditional multi-attribute decision making problem. In the actual decision-making, because of policy-making question's complexity, decision-making information acquisition costs and other reasons, the decision information which the policy-maker can obtain are mostly ambiguous, so in the real lif...

We prove that a generic canonically or bicanonically embedded smooth curve has semistable m Hilbert points for all m ≥ 2. We also prove that a generic bicanonically embedded smooth curve has stable m Hilbert points for all m ≥ 3. In the canonical case, this is accomplished by proving finite Hilbert semistability of special singular curves with Gm-action, namely the canonically embedded balanced...

We study how the exotic particles and supersymmetric partners would affect the discovery limit at the Tevatron and LHC for neutral gauge bosons in generic E6 models. We examine the Z ′ decay in the extreme case that all of the particles are massless, then consider how the masses of non-standard model particles will affect the discovery limit. We also calculate the discovery limit for a supersym...

Some examples are ...

This paper explores sub-disciplinary variations and generic structure of research article introductions (RAIs) within three sub-disciplines of applied linguistics (AL); namely, English for Specific Purposes (ESP), Psycholinguistics, and Sociolinguistics, using Swales’(1990) CARS model. The corpus consisted of 90 RAIs drawn from a wide range of refereed journals in the corresponding sub-discipli...
