The ESAS will provide an opportunity to compare and contrast treatment provision with colleagues who achieve similar levels of quality outcome and there may be differences, for example, in treatment duration or levels of decalcification. All this can be achieved using the ESAS database and simple analyses. Achieving recognition in providing high quality care on your routine cases can compliment...

A recent review on facial mimicry concludes that emotional mimicry is less ubiquitous than has been suggested, and only occurs in interactions that are potentially affiliative (see Hess and Fischer, in revision). We hypothesize that individuals do not mimic facial expressions that can be perceived as offensive, such as disgust, and mimic positive emotion displays, but only when the context is a...

OBJECTIVE To implement and assess the effectiveness of the Strathclyde Computerized Randomized Interactive Prescription Tutor (SCRIPT) in teaching a competency-based undergraduate pharmacy course. DESIGN Data on students' access to SCRIPT, collected by quantitative electronic data capture, were analyzed to determine student usage patterns and correlations between usage and grades in class ass...

This research investigates how observers react when they see someone else being given a compliment that is flattering but that appears sincere. Prior work suggests that to the extent the compliment is perceived to be genuine, observers will not judge the source negatively. Merging insights from social comparison research and dual attitudes theory, this article presents a novel conceptualization...

network expansion studies normally offer new power lines, new substations or expansion of existing substations. they are generally proposed based on technical requirements, but financial restrictions are not considered. because of financial restrictions, ranking of network expansion plans is required. in this paper an algorithm for such ranking, based on technical and financial view points and ...

In this paper, we proposed a new number system for ALU. In binary number system carry is a major problem in arithmetical operation. We have to suffer O(n) carry propagation delay in n-bit binary operation. To overcome this problem signed digit is required for carry free arithmetical operation. Carry look ahead helps to improve the propagation delay to O(log n), but is bounded to a small number ...

Necrotizing fasciitis is a destructive invasive infection of skin, subcutaneous tissue and deep fascia, with relative sparing of muscle. It is a life-threatening condition. Here we report two cases of necrotizing fasciitis, which were not responding to conventional antibiotic therapy and local wound care after aggressive debridement. These two cases were treated simply by local application of 3...

The entire book is well illustrated. The numerous diagrams, x-rays and photographs not only follow the text closely but also compliment it favorably. At times, the material is presented in a somewhat didactic, repetitive manner. However, this is a minor fault of a book that is otherwise so well written. This work presents an important milestone in the development of thoracic surgery. In additio...

I would like to compliment ‘Indian Pediatrics’ for publishing and providing a solution to the recurrent annual outbreaks of a mysterious fatal disease affecting young children of western UP and Uttarakhand for last many years(1). This illness often labeled as ‘acute viral encephalitis’by the investigating agencies and ‘brain fever’ by lay media has been puzzling pediatricians and public health ...

Symmetry has been dealt with in a wide variety of elds in both art and science. Symmetry and asymmetry as aesthetic features have been used in architecture, sculptures and paintings. Symmetry and symmetric groups have been de ned in mathematics [31]. Symmetry and it's compliment feature Chirality are basic properties of molecular structure that mediate chemical properties [29]. Though symmetry ...
