BACKGROUND Congenital subaortic stenosis (SAS) has a high recurrence rate after surgical correction. Aortic valve disease frequently coexists with SAS, being its occurrence and progression unpredictable. We aimed to assess predictors of SAS recurrence and aortic valve disease occurrence and progression. METHODS Retrospective analysis of 51 patients with SAS followed in a congenital heart dise...

Researchers in the EDM community have always relied on sophisticated tools to analyze data and build models. As the amount of data that can be collected and stored grows, the need for tools capable of handling “big data” becomes ever more prevalent. SAS Analytics U is a new initiative for making SAS data analysis and mining tools available for free to educational researchers and instructors. Th...

In recent years, the class of generalized linear models has gained popularity as a statistical modeling tool. This popularity is due in part to the flexibility of generalized linear models in addressing a variety of statistical problems and to the availability of software to fit the models. The SAS system provides two new tools that fit generalized linear models. The GENMOD procedure in SAS/ST...

The SAS Metadata Server® introduces a new world to clinical data programmers. It is a storage centre to store information about every single object there is in the SAS System®. Not only the table level and column level attributes such as SAS table labels and column lengths, extended attributes are also built in and extensible to keep valuable business data in this centralized location. To acces...

This paper gives an overview of the ways that SAS is addressing performance through scalability in SAS Version 9. Scalability features have been implemented in many areas of SAS Version 9 to allow your applications to scale up and scale out. These include: • Multi-Process (MP) CONNECT, • the Scalable Performance Data Engine (SPDE engine), • certain SAS/ACCESS engines, • several scalable SAS pro...

The pharmaceutical industry is well known for using SAS to perform quantitative analysis for clinical research. Lately, however, competitive pressures have created opportunities in the marketing departments to use SAS for Data Mining. Applications such as sales force planning and direct marketing to doctors and consumers are employing many new SAS tools and techniques. This paper will provide a...

In an attempt to find a method to create a stable, fast, easily modified replacement for a Microsoft Access database, SAS rapidly became the only choice as a replacement tool. SAS can very quickly be adapted for uses by relative beginners in novel ways to exploit its strengths as a data extraction and manipulation tool. Using PC SAS and SAS CONNECT for ODBC a method was found to convert the mos...

Throughout the world, property taxes are commonly employed as main source of locally generated revenue. In Bangalore, collected under New SAS. When SAS was introduced in there lot transparency and payment tax made easy. However, whether owners aware SAS, perceive process similar, accept taxation policies without any differences, a study undertaken.

Centrioles are surrounded by pericentriolar material (PCM), which is proposed to promote new centriole assembly by concentrating gamma-tubulin. Here, we quantitatively monitor new centriole assembly in living Caenorhabditis elegans embryos, focusing on the conserved components SAS-4 and SAS-6. We show that SAS-4 and SAS-6 are coordinately recruited to the site of new centriole assembly and reac...
