One of the problems encountered by engineering students and faculty staff members Aurora State College Technology (ASCOT) is water supply for toilet urinal flushing. This problem attributed to location area which 50m above sea level. The main source campus coming from falls requires pipelines that are vulnerable heavy damage during natural disasters illegal intrusion. To address scarcity, rainw...

In this demonstration, we present AscotDB, a new tool for the analysis of telescope image data. AscotDB results from the integration of ASCOT, a Web-based tool for the collaborative analysis of telescope images and their metadata, and SciDB, a parallel array processing engine. We demonstrate the novel data exploration supported by this integrated tool on a 1 TB dataset comprising scientifically...

Diuretics have been used as antihypertensive agents since the advent of mercurial diuretics. However, resurrection of thiazides in treatment of hypertension began after the Antihypertensive and Lipid‑Lowering Treatment to Prevent Heart Attack (ALLHAT) trial [1] which brought back diuretics to the forefront in Joint National Committee 7 (JNC 7) recommendations for hypertension. ALLHAT showed tha...

BACKGROUND Analyses of some randomised trials show that calcium-channel blockers reduce the risk of stroke more than expected on the basis of mean blood pressure alone and that beta blockers are less effective than expected. We aimed to investigate whether the effects of these drugs on variability in blood pressure might explain these disparities in effect on stroke risk. METHODS The Anglo-Sc...

Neutron production rates in fusion devices are determined not only by the kinetic profiles but also fast ion slowing-down distributions. In this work, we investigate effect of magnetic configuration on neutron future deuterium plasmas Wendelstein 7-X (W7-X) stellarator. The neutral beam injection, and triton distributions, reactivity simulated with ASCOT suite codes. results indicate that has a...

15. Millard P. A case for the development of departments of gero-comy in all district hospitals: a discussion paper. Hypertension remains the most prevalent and preventable cause of cardiovascular (CHD) and cerebrovascular (CVD) disease, and there is good evidence that antihypertensive drugs are effective [1]. Interest in the condition remains high, with a number of recent large studies and pub...
