Analysis of energies and widths of the lowest 1/2+ T = 3/2 states in A = 11 nuclei suggests that the excitation energy in 11C should be about 200 keV below the energy in the literature, and the width should be 4 to 5 times the literature value. Properties of the state in 11B and 11N are in agreement with the present model. Disciplines Physical Sciences and Mathematics | Physics Comments Fortune...

UNLABELLED There has been a large confirmation over the last decades that stroke may produce cardiac changes (echocardiographic, electrocardiographic, enzymatic). In ischemic stroke, systolic dysfunction is associated with a high risk of mortality during hospitalization. A recent study demonstrated that cardiac diastolic dysfunction could also accompany acute stroke besides the systolic dysfunc...

OBJECTIVE Infantile spasm (IS) is a convulsive disease characterized by brief, symmetric axial muscle contraction (neck, trunk, and/or extremities). IS is a type of seizure that was first described by West in 1841, who witnessed the seizure in his own son. West's syndrome refers to the classic triad of spasms, characteristic EEG, and neurodevelopmental regression. Most cases involve flexors and...

Ocular parasitosis in human is more prevalent in geographical areas where environmental factors and poor sanitary conditions favor the parasitism between man and animals. Lesions in the eye can be due to damage directly caused by the infectious pathogen, indirect pathology caused by toxic products, or the immune response incited by infections or ectopic parasitism. The epidemiology of parasitic...

The epidemiology of Candida fungal infections is growing, due to the increasing size of the people at risk. Candida species are the fourth main cause of bloodstream infections; however, significant geographic differences have been reported. Although, in some instances, these changes may be related to medical interventions, such as the use of antifungal agents in prophylaxis, in the majority of ...

Today Cloud computing is emerging as a new technology in corporate world and organization. Cloud testing is a form of software testing in which web applications use cloud computing environments (i.e. a "cloud") to handle with real-world user traffic by using various cloud technologies and solutions. Cloud computing leads an opportunity in offering testing as a service (TaaS) for SaaS and clouds...

PURPOSE Checklists are increasingly being used by surgical teams in the perioperative period to improve clinical care and increase patient safety. In this article, we review some of the mechanisms by which checklists work and evaluate evidence supporting their use. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS There is a growing body of evidence showing the importance of team-based checklists in clinical care. In multi...
