We have observed an elevation of body temperature during surgical repair of pectus excavatum. To document this phenomenon and attempt to prevent it, we undertook a combination retrospective-prospective study. The retrospective arm included an analysis of the anesthetic records of patients undergoing repair of pectus excavatum during the past 5 years and included 22 boys and 3 girls. Body temper...

in this paper, it was shown that , where  and , and , where  is not prime and , are od-characterizable.

let $g$ be a connected graph with vertex set $v(g)$‎. ‎the‎ ‎degree resistance distance of $g$ is defined as $d_r(g) = sum_{{u‎,‎v} subseteq v(g)} [d(u)+d(v)] r(u,v)$‎, ‎where $d(u)$ is the degree‎ ‎of vertex $u$‎, ‎and $r(u,v)$ denotes the resistance distance between‎ ‎$u$ and $v$‎. ‎in this paper‎, ‎we characterize $n$-vertex unicyclic‎ ‎graphs having minimum and second minimum degree resista...

Multi-degree splines are piecewise polynomial functions having sections of different degrees. They offer significant advantages over the classical uniform-degree framework, as they allow for modeling complex geometries with fewer degrees freedom and, at same time, a more efficient engineering analysis. Moreover possess set basis similar properties to standard B-splines. In this paper we develop...

an equitable domination has interesting application in the contextof social networks. in a network, nodes with nearly equal capacitymay interact with each other in a better way. in the societypersons with nearly equal status, tend to be friendly. in thispaper, we introduce new variant of equitable domination of agraph. basic properties and some interesting results have beenobtained.

One of the strategies for survival and distribution individual species in natural regeneration which is affected by environmental factors. The vegetation covers seedling's emergence from soil bank were studied effect topographical factors (aspects, elevation, slope gradient), forest` Zawita mountains, Sorensen similarity index was estimated between cover seed bank. experiment factorial with a s...

A clear understanding of the relationships among multiple ecosystem services (ESs) is foundation for sustainable urban management. Quantitatively identifying factors that influence ES trade-offs and synergies can contribute to deepening research, from knowledge building decision making. This study simulated soil conservation, water yield carbon sequestration in Beijing, China, 2015–2018. The sp...

In 1992, Brugada syndrome (BrS) was described for the first time as a pattern of ST-segment elevation in right precordial electrocardiography (EKG) leads with high incidence unexplained cardiac arrest (UCA) and sudden death (SCD) patients structurally normal hearts [1]. It is associated an autosomal dominant genetic predisposition. Therefore, case diagnosed UCA or SCD, first-degree relatives ar...

Climate warming and increased disturbance (resulting from intensified land use) are expected to enhance the invasibility of plant communities performance exotic species also at high elevations, thus pose additional threats mountain ecosystems. The invasion success introduced genotypes will depend on their degree pre-adaption elevation climatic conditions, which may vary intra-specifically acros...
