Reduction of production disturbances of a shoemaking industry through a discrete event simulation approach
This study presents a reduction of production disturbances of a shoemaking industry through discrete event simulation approach. The study is conducted at Peacock Shoe factory found in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. This factory faces line balancing problem that becomes production disturbance for its assembly lines. Detail time study is carried out for the selected shoe model using stopwatch. Assembly ...
متن کاملAlternate day versus daily atorvastatin in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol reduction: A meta-analysis
Statins are the mainstay treatment for hyperlipidemia. They are hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA inhibitors and cause reduction in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) levels. Atorvastatin is one of the most commonly used statins. These drugs are usually prescribed in a daily dose regimen. Due to the long duration of action and prolonged effect on hepatocytes, alternate day atorvastatin therapy...
متن کاملHigh-density lipoprotein and cardiovascular risk reduction: promises and realities.
In a recent article in the Revista Española de Cardiologı́a, Cordero et al. reported a study of the concentrations of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) in 959 unselected consecutive patients who were admitted for chest pain. The authors found that low levels of HDL-C (<40 mg/dL) were independently associated with diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), that is, the lower the level...
متن کاملCardiovascular benefit of magnitude of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol reduction: a comparison of subgroups by age.
BACKGROUND We examined the effect of the magnitude of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) reduction across subjects of various ages in a retrospective cohort study. METHODS AND RESULTS We selected 20,132 male veterans at high risk for an acute cardiovascular event and who had 2 or more LDL-C measurements before their first documented acute myocardial infarction, revascularization, dea...
متن کاملEnhancing cardiovascular disease risk reduction: raising high-density lipoprotein levels.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Despite optimally reducing low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels to recommended targets using intensive statin therapy, the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains significant. Low levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C; <1.03 mmol/l or <40 mg/dl) are an independent risk factor for CVD, and raising levels of HDL-C is a major treatment strategy ...
