Malignant hyperthermia: to buffer or not to buffer

Operating or not Operating at the Margin: Farmers Willingness to Adopt a Riparian Buffer Zone

In the European Union, mitigation measures to abate diffuse pollution from agricultural land are implemented under the direction of the EU Nitrates and Water Framework Directives. As these measures are implemented in national policies, a review process will look at the efficacy of the measures with a view to recommending further measures as necessary. This study examines the willingness of farm...

Malignant Hyperthermia

''Malignant Hypothermia'' syndrome is a rare, but dangerous occurrence, the aetiology of which is not known. Up to this date 180 cases have been reported. This syndrome i's seen generally in :male children over age of two years, and especially in adolescent males. Also those people with muscular abnormalities are more susciptable to this illnes'S. Anaesthetic agent such as halothane or muscular...

Schwartz–Jampel syndrome is not related to malignant hyperthermia

Schwartz-Jampel syndrome (SJS) is a rare syndrome that is clinically characterized by myotonia and skeletal abnormalities. Most reports regarding SJS have stated that patients with SJS are susceptible to malignant hyperthermia (MH). The statement is incorrect. There is no report showing that SJS is related to MH. Scientific evidence also shows that patients with myotonias are not susceptible to...

Folic Acid Supplementation: to Advise or not to Advise?

Buffer Buffer Decoder Buffer Buffer Low Voltage Data Line High Voltage Reverse Line Data in Data out Buffer Buffer off - Chip Data

Presented in this paper are: 1.) lower bounds on energy consumption of noisy digital gates and 2.) the concept of noise tolerance via coding for achieving energy efficiency in the presence of noise. A discrete channel model for noisy digital logic in deep submicron technology that captures the manifestation of circuit noise is presented. The lower bounds are derived via an information-theoretic...
