In the article " Effect of the Healthy Schools Program on Prevalence of Overweight and Obesity in California Schools, 2006–2012, " an error appeared in the last paragraph of the Results section. The second to last sentence in that paragraph erroneously stated the decline in overweight and obesity as 3%. That sentence should read as follows: In models looking at dose rather than duration of prog...

The Euclidean quantum field theory for the fields φ∆x(x), which depend on both the position x and the resolution ∆x, constructed in SIGMA 2 (2006), 046, on the base of the continuous wavelet transform, is considered. The Feynman diagrams in such a theory become finite under the assumption there should be no scales in internal lines smaller than the minimal of scales of external lines. This regu...

Lower torso ischemia and reperfusion lead to respiratory dysfunction characterized by pulmonary hypertension and increased lung microvascular permeability. This is associated with lung leukosequestration and thromboxane (TX) generation. This study tests the role of elevated TX levels following musde ischemia in mediating remote lung injury. Anesthetized sheep prepared with chronic lung lymph fi...

A Randomized Trial of Induction Versus Expectant Management1 (ARRIVE) trial provoked a flurry comment and related studies,2–9 but the bemusing results less obvious implications this seminal study warrant additional review. This state-of-the-art randomly allocated more than 6000 low-risk nulliparous women at 39 weeks’ gestation showed that adverse perinatal outcome rates were lower after labor i...

A randomized crossover study of prophylactic immunoglobulin (IgG) therapy was performed in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). Twelve patients with hypogammaglobulinemia or a history of recurrent infections received infusions of IgG or placebo intravenously (IV) every 3 weeks for 1 year. They were then switched to the alternative preparation for an...
