Background: It remains uncertain whether the choice of resuscitation fluid for patients in intensive care units (ICUs) affects survival. We conducted a multicenter, randomized, double-blind trial to compare the effect of fluid resuscitation with albumin or saline on mortality in a heterogeneous population of patients in the ICU. Methods: We randomly assigned patients who had been admitted to th...

Generalized concept of $J$-basis

A generalization of Schauder basis associated with the concept of generalized analytic functions is introduced. Corresponding concepts of density, completeness, biorthogonality and basicity are defined. Also, corresponding concept of the space of coefficients is introduced. Under certain conditions for the  corresponding operators, some properties of the space of coefficients and basicity crite...
