Four of eight models showed visual signs of malfunction, including spraying of large, individually visible droplets, leaking of nebulizer solution, and air leaks that completely prevented neb...

متن کاملHow reliable are SIDS rates?
There is increasing concern with using SIDS as a diagnosis, especially where the postmortem examination reveals additional findings that may be contributory to the death exclusion. This report shows how varying the criteria for a diagnosis of SIDS significantly alters the SIDS rate in Ireland.

There is growing concern that a substantial proportion of scientific research may in fact be false. A number of factors have been proposed as contributing to the presence of a large number of false-positive results in the literature, one of which is publication bias. We discuss empirical evidence for these factors.
