Background: Previous studies reported that neonatal and maternal complications as well as duration of labor could be diminished through labor management. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the effect of intramuscular (IM) administration of atropine and hyoscine combination on labor progress and maternal and neonatal outcomes in primigravid women admitted to Taleghani Hospital of Arak, Iran. Metho...

Locatedness is one of the fundamental notions in constructive mathematics. The existence of a positivity predicate on a locale, i.e. the locale being overt, or open, has proved to be fundamental in constructive locale theory. We show that the two notions are intimately connected. Bishop defines a metric space to be compact if it is complete and totally bounded. A subset of a totally bounded set...

The paper presents a theorem for representation a given cone as a Bishop–Phelps cone in normed spaces and studies interior and separation properties for Bishop–Phelps cones. The representation theorem is formulated in the form of a necessary and sufficient condition and provides relationship between the parameters determining the BishopPhelps cone. The necessity is given in reflexive Banach spa...

Premature birth is one of the major problems worldwide. Different methods have been researched and used to detect preterm from past present. The most commonly ones are; tocodynamometer device Transvaginal Cervix Length, Bishop Score ElectroHysteroGram (EHG) signal. Studies shown that it widely in estimating risk using EHG signals. In studies, feature extraction was made signals estimated with v...

One of the most successful relationships for effective stresses on unsaturated soils was proposed by Bishop in the middle of the last century. However, only recently Bishop ́s effective stress equation has been implemented in various constitutive models for unsaturated soils. These models have the advantage of naturally include the coupling between the hydraulic and the mechanical behavior exper...
