Sinusitis: an improved regime of investigation for the clinical laboratory.

چکیده

Clinical material from 200 patients suffering from acute sinusitis was examined cytologically and bacteriologically. Seventy per cent of specimens were collected by aspiration of the middle meatus, 20% by antral wash, and 10% by direct swabbing of the antra. A comparison of the results from these differing techniques is made. The bacteriological methods used and the isolates and their significance are discussed, and suggestions are offered for improving the routine demonstration of presumptive pathogens in this disease.

Critical Drag Investigation for an Axisymmetric Projectile with Choked Base Bleed at High-Subsonic and Transonic Regime Using SST K-? Model

In the following paper, the effects of a choked jet exhausted from the base of a non-lifting body on its total and base drags at sub-sonic and transonic regimes has been numerically investigated. Having surveyed the results of some turbulence models and after comparing with experimental results, an appropriate turbulence model i.e. SST K-?, has been chosen and this model has been used in the su...
