STUDY OBJECTIVES Little is known about long-term effects of pneumonectomy on lung function and exercise tolerance. We evaluated the long-term validity of two formulas frequently used to predict postoperative lung function, as well as trends in postoperative lung function and late postoperative exercise capacity. SETTING Nonuniversity teaching hospital of Eindhoven, the Netherlands. PATIENTS...

Aims of the Unit The overall purpose of this unit is to get you to read some writings by feminists and see the profoundly new and perhaps unsettling epistemological ideas they have put forward. We hope that by the end of the unit no one will characterise feminist philosophers of science as a unified school. Objectives By the end of this unit you should be able to:) See some limitations of groun...

Phosphorus application in excess of crop needs has increased the concentration of P in surface soil and runoff and led many states to develop P-based nutrient management strategies. However, insufficient data are available relating P in surface soil, surface runoff, and subsurface drainage to develop sound guidelines. Thus, we investigated P release from the surface (0-5 cm depth) of a Denbigh ...

HREE live poultry viruses-fowl pox, Rous sarcoma and Newcastle diseasehave been employed experimentally at the Agricultural Research Center, Beltsville, Maryland, iin studies designed to test their action on parthenogenesis in eggs of Beltsville Small White (BSW) turkeys. Each of the viruses was found to have an enhancing influence on cells of parthenogenetic origin (OLSEN 1956, 1961; OLSEN and...

The rate of hydrolysis of trans -[Cr(NH ) F ] was obtained as a function of acid concentsation in perchloric, sulfuric and nitric acid at 3Q°C. The results have been analyzed by the treatment of Bunnett and Olsen. Values of the parameter ?in Olsen equation are consistent with the participation of water as a proton-wansfer agent in the rate-determining step. The Arrhenius plot for perchlori...

The Olsen phosphorus (P) concentration of a soil is a key index that can be used to evaluate the P supply capacity of the soil and to estimate the optimal P fertilization rate. A study of the relationship between the soil Olsen P concentration and the P balance (P input minus P output) and their variations among different fertilization patterns will help to provide useful information for proper...

Phosphorus (P) often limits the eutrophication of streams, rivers, and lakes receiving surface runoff. We evaluated the relationships among selected soil P availability indices and runoff P fractions where manure, whey, or commercial fertilizer applications had previously established a range of soil P availabilities on a Portneuf silt loam (coarse-silty, mixed, superactive, mesic Durinodic Xeri...
