BACKGROUND Ropivacaine provides effective spinal anaesthesia for total hip arthroplasty. This study was designed to compare the efficacy and safety of plain ropivacaine with plain bupivacaine for spinal anaesthesia in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty. METHODS Sixty-six patients, ASA I or II, were randomized to receive an intrathecal injection of one of two local anaesthetic solution...

Daniel Defoe is often perceived as one of the most influential and prolific writers in the world literature as well as the inventor of the English novel. Among Daniel Defoe’s various works, Moll Flanders (1722) is neither the most enduring nor the most popular one. But it is Defoe’s first novel, also the first one in the history of English literature, with a woman protagonist from the lowest so...

The re-alkalization technology of carbonated concrete can effectively restore the alkalinity concrete, but effect is affected by many factors, such as voltage, electrolyte concentration, and current conduction time. In this paper, under different parameter changes studied, feasibility selection range parameters in its application are determined. Results show that voltage should be controlled be...

In July 1925, the psychiatrist Albert Moll appeared before the district court in Berlin-Schöneberg charged with having defamed the medium Maria Vollhardt (alias Rudloff) in his 1924 book Der Spiritismus [Spiritism]. Supported by some of Berlin's most prominent occultists, the plaintiff--the medium's husband--argued that Moll's use of terms such as 'trick', 'manipulation' and 'farce' in referenc...

Let di(m) denote the coefficients of the Boros-Moll polynomials. Moll’s minimum conjecture states that the sequence {i(i+1)(di (m)−di−1(m)di+1(m))}1≤i≤m attains its minimum at i = m with 2−2mm(m + 1) ( 2m m )2 . This conjecture is stronger than the log-concavity conjecture proved by Kauers and Paule. We give a proof of Moll’s conjecture by utilizing the spiral property of the sequence {di(m)}0≤...

Abstract. Let di(m) denote the coefficients of the Boros-Moll polynomials. Moll’s minimum conjecture states that the sequence {i(i+1)(d2i (m)−di−1(m)di+1(m))}1≤i≤m attains its minimum with i = m. This conjecture is a stronger than the log-concavity conjecture proved by Kausers and Paule. We give a proof of Moll’s conjecture by utilizing the spiral property of the sequence {di(m)}0≤i≤m, and the ...
