Clinical inertia is defined as lack of treatment intensification in a patient not at evidence-based goals for care. Clinical inertia is a major factor that contributes to inadequate chronic disease care in patients with diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemias, depression, coronary heart disease, and other conditions. Recent work suggests that clinical inertia related to the management of...

BACKGROUND Dystocia occurs more commonly in some breeds of dogs than others. The Boxer breed is one of the highrisk breeds for whelping problems. The aim of this study was to document some reproductive parameters and the frequency of dystocia in Boxers. METHODS Two questionnaires were sent to the breeders of Boxers in Sweden during 1994 to 1997. Data from 253 whelpings and 1671 pups was recei...

in the present work properties of rossby and inertia gravity waves are investigated based on proper orthogonal decomposition (pod) functions. the pod functions are constructed using analytical, experimental or numerical data recorded as snapshots. the pod basis can be carried out to make a reduced order model by galerkin projection of governing equations onto these functions. in this paper, the...

in this paper‎, ‎we study the extremal‎ ‎ranks and inertias of the hermitian matrix expression $$‎ ‎f(x,y)=c_{4}-b_{4}y-(b_{4}y)^{*}-a_{4}xa_{4}^{*},$$ where $c_{4}$ is‎ ‎hermitian‎, ‎$*$ denotes the conjugate transpose‎, ‎$x$ and $y$ satisfy‎ ‎the following consistent system of matrix equations $a_{3}y=c_{3}‎, ‎a_{1}x=c_{1},xb_{1}=d_{1},a_{2}xa_{2}^{*}=c_{2},x=x^{*}.$ as‎ ‎consequences‎, ‎we g...

reliability investigation has always been one of the most important issues in power systems planning. the outages rate in power system reflects the fact that more attentions should be paid on reliability indices to supply consumers with uninterrupted power. using reliability indices in economic dispatch problem may lead to the system load demand with high reliability and low probability of powe...

Introduction: Thermal inertia derived from Thermal Emission Spectrometer (TES) data at 20-ppd [1-2] is the highest spatial resolution global thermal inertia dataset currently available. This valuable dataset is important for understanding regional variations in thermal inertia, and for inferring the physical nature of the surface at 10s to 100s of km scales. However, the resolution of TES (~3 k...
