Abstract Introduction Patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) following congenital heart disease (CHD) repair are an emerging population at increased risk of complications. Small numbers such patients have been included in studies evaluating the efficacy macitentan, but since obtaining a license for use this population, limited real-world data published. Purpose To describe safety a...

Background and Purpose: Unilateral neglect (ULN) syndrome negatively affects recovery post-stroke and is often associated with falls, longer stays in rehabilitation, and the need for more assistance at discharge. Typical physical therapy treatments include voluntary trunk rotation, visual scanning exercises, mirror therapy, hemispheric activation, sensory awareness training, and lower extremity...

An analysis of phase noise in differential cross-coupled tuned tank voltage controlled oscillators is presented. The effect of active device noise sources as well as the noise due to the passive elements are taken into account. The predictions are in good agreement with the measurements for different tail currents and supply voltages. The effect of the complementary cross-coupled pair is analyz...

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a rare and complex condition characterised by progressive worsening of pulmonary vascular resistance. The consensus definition of PH is an aggregate of haemodynamic factors that include a mean pulmonary artery pressure of greater than 25mmHg at rest or more than 30mmHg during exercise, normal pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, pulmonary vascular resistance >3 Woo...

We demonstrate selective detection of hydrocarbons using a widely-tunable, rapidlyswept, high-resolution spectrometer based on a mid-infrared laser source using differencefrequency generation in periodically poled lithium niobate waveguides. ©2006 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (120.6200) Spectrometers and spectroscopic instrumentation General; (190.2620) Frequency conversion Rapid, non...

introduction small ruminants, especially native breed types, play an important role in livelihoods of a considerable part of human population in the tropics from socio-economic aspects. therefore, integrated attempt in terms of management and genetic improvement to enhance production is of crucial importance. knowledge of genetic variation and co-variation among traits is required for both the ...
