background outcome determination of head trauma is important for medical decision-making. to determine the consequences by using ct findings, the marshall and rotterdam criteria were introduced. few studies have been conducted to determine the diagnostic value of the rotterdam criteria. objective this study assesses the diagnostic value of the rotterdam criteria score with early outcome for tra...

OBJECTIVE To analyze the effectiveness of the Marshall scoring system to evaluate the severity of acute pancreatitis (AP). METHODS We performed a prospective, observational study in 39 patients with AP evaluated by the Marshall scoring system and the Ranson criteria (admission and 48 hours). We assessed the progression of the disease for seven days and compared the data of the two criteria. ...

This paper will describe the Marshall Space Flight Center's Solar Ultraviolet Magnetograph (SUMI) sounding rocket program, with emphasis on the polarization characteristics of the VUV optics and their spectral, spatial and polarization resolution. SUMI's first flight (7/30/2010) met all of its mission success criteria and this paper will describe the data that was acquired with emphasis on the ...

Building upon previous projects from the first phase of collaboration with the Luce Foundation, the Berkley Center’s Religion and Global Development Program and World Faiths Development Dialogue (WFDD) are exploring key religion and development work at the country level in Bangladesh, Senegal, Kenya, and Guatemala. A team of researchers, under the leadership of Katherine Marshall, will draw fro...

Justin Marshall is Professor of Neurobiology and Marine Biology at the University of Queensland in Australia within The Queensland Brain Institute. He can be labelled a visual ecologist as he studies comparative eye design and how this is guided by the physics of light. He has co-written a book called “Visual Ecology”, co-edited a book called “Sensory Processing in Aquatic Environments”, is co-...

In this article, we propose a geometric programming method in order to compute lower bounds for real polynomials. We provide new sufficient conditions for polynomials to be nonnegative as well as to have a sum of binomial squares representation. These criteria rely on the coefficients and the support of a polynomial and generalize all previous ones by Lasserre, Ghasemi, Marshall, Fidalgo and Ko...
