I will explore multiple literatures with the aim of finding evi-dence on what exact times patients are undergoing surgery and howit is impacting their wellbeing. I am aiming to develop a relationshipor trend on what influences the patients’ clinical outcome to be themost positive. On a more personal level this topic is very interestingto me as both my father and a friend have recently suffered fromprolapsed discs, which is the primary cause of developing CES. I willfocus on narrowing down my research to find thorough and resource-ful information on the relationship between the time of surgery forobtaining a positive clinical outcome for the patient.

متن کاملGains from diversification on convex combinations: A majorization and stochastic dominance approach
By incorporating both majorization theory and stochastic dominance theory, this paper presents a general theory and a unifying framework for determining the diversification preferences of risk-averse investors and conditions under which they would unanimously judge a particular asset to be superior. In particular, we develop a theory for comparing the preferences of different convex combination...
متن کاملImproved immunogenicity of tetanus toxoid by Brucella abortus S19 LPS adjuvant.
BACKGROUND Adjuvants are used to increase the immunogenicity of new generation vaccines, especially those based on recombinant proteins. Despite immunostimulatory properties, the use of bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) as an adjuvant has been hampered due to its toxicity and pyrogenicity. Brucella abortus LPS is less toxic and has no pyrogenic properties compared to LPS from other gram negati...
