Let $F$ be a CM number field. We prove modularity lifting theorems for regular $n$-dimensional Galois representations over without any self-duality condition. deduce that all elliptic curves $E$ are potentially modular, and furthermore satisfy the Sato--Tate conjecture. As an application of different sort, we also Ramanujan Conjecture weight zero cuspidal automorphic $\mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbb{A}_F...

OBJECTIVE On October 1, 2013, the reporting of diagnoses and procedures in the U.S. will transition from the clinical modification of the ninth revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-9-CM) to the tenth revision (ICD-10). We estimate the impact of conversion to ICD-10 on Medicare MS-DRG payments to hospitals using 2009 Medicare data. METHODS Using the ICD-9-CM MS-DRG ...

The objective of this study was to investigate the long term trend of pediatric injuries in Veneto Region (North-East of Italy) over 10 years, evaluating if seasonality in injury hospitalisations exists. Regional data on hospital admissions during the period 2000-2009 were analysed. Injury was defined as any condition identified by the International Classification of Diseases, 9th edition, Clin...

The maximum brightness of one of the prothoracic light organs of the West Indian elaterid beetles, Pyrophorus (measured at Princeton, New Jersey) was found to be .045 lambert, or .045 lumen per sq. cm. at 20 degrees C. This corresponds to .0002 candle for one organ, or .0004 candle for the pair of prothoracic organs.

OBJECTIVES Despite the rapid proliferation of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), little attention has been paid to patient utilisation of this newest surgical innovation and barriers that may result in disparities in access to RARP. The goal of this study is to identify demographic and economic factors that decrease the likelihood of patients with prostate cancer (PC) receiving RARP. ...

In Victoria, legislation clearly makes the notification of clinical or confirmed cases of meningococcal disease mandatory. Statistical modelling suggests that meningococcal disease is significantly under-notified, and that incorrect codes might be being ascribed to some in-patient episodes. The aims of this study were (i) to test the assumption that cases identified as non-notified cases were t...

BACKGROUND Despite concerns about hypoglycemia events from overly aggressive glycemic reduction, population trends in hypoglycemia and hyperglycemic crisis incidence are unclear. To address this gap, we examined changes in emergency department (ED) visit rates for hypoglycemia and hyperglycemic crisis 2006-2011. METHODS Using data from the Nationwide Emergency Department Sample, we estimated ...

AIM To determine the association between cirrhosis and ischemic stroke in a large nationally representative sample. METHODS A retrospective cross-sectional study of all hospitalized patients during 2012 and 2013 in the United States was performed using the National Inpatient Sample database. Hospitalizations with acute stroke, cirrhosis and other risk factors were identified using ICD-9-CM co...
