OBJECTIVES The association between carbonated beverage consumption and bone mineral density was examined in a community-based cohort of older White women. METHODS One thousand women 44 to 98 years of age had bone mineral density measured at four sites and provided medical and behavioral histories, including type and quantity of carbonated beverages consumed. RESULTS Bone mineral density lev...

Abstract An approach for post-frac production profiling has been presented in this study by integrating a fracture model with reservoir simulation well drilled tight sand of Lower Indus Basin Pakistan. The integrated couples the output from growth to effectively predict behavior fractured reservoir. Optimization hydraulic fracturing was done efficiently through work study. used perform various ...

In the broader Caucasus region, multiple extrusive volcanic units are present within Jurassic, Cretaceous, Eocene and Miocene sedimentary successions. Partial reworking of material from various provenance areas into Eocene, Oligocene reservoir is commonly observed in Eastern Black Sea Rioni, Kartli Kura Basins onshore Georgia. Reservoir quality has general been negatively affected by rock fragm...

Four local anaesthetic solutions (2% carbonated lignocaine with or without adrenaline and 0.5% bupivacaine HCl with or without adrenaline) were used randomly for 335 continuous lumbar extradural blocks in labour. Carbonated lignocaine caused a more rapid onset of analgesia than bupivacaine HCl. The addition of adrenaline made little difference to the onset times, prolonged markedly the duration...

Introduction That a “high temperature reservoir” (HTR) underlies a “typical” vapor-dominated reservoir under certain circumstances is well known (Drenick, 1986; Pruess et al., 1987; Walters et al., 1988). However, formation and behavior of such a feature is poorly understood. Recent theories regarding the behavior of the HTR fall into one of two broad categories: transient and steady state. In ...
