A 47-year-old woman with dilated cardiomyopathy underwent a single-chamber implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) implantation for sustained ventricular tachycardia 10 years previously. Because bradycardia became clinically evident with beta-blocker therapy for heart failure, we attempted an upgrade from a single-chamber to dual-chamber ICD for physiological pacing. Venography revealed co...

This work presents a numerical investigation of a vertical internally finned tube subjected to forced convection heat transfer. The governing equations were solved numerically using the control volume technique. Nusselt number, Nu, and friction factor multiplied by Reynolds number, fRe, are influenced greatly by the height and number of the radial fins. The velocity and temperature distribution...

It is a relapsing, chronic dermatosis that develops in stages and is characterized by a defect in vascular responsiveness [2,3]. Most often, fair-skinned individuals are seen first with flushing and blushing episodes followed by persi...

"More and more population forecasts are being produced with associated 95 percent confidence intervals. How confident are we of those confidence intervals? In this paper, we produce a simulated dataset in which we know both past and future population sizes, and the true 95 percent confidence intervals at various future dates. We use the past data to produce population forecasts and estimated 95...

Anne M'Pherson, set. 20, was admitted to the Maternity Hospital on Tuesday, 20th June 1871, and was delivered of a healthy male child at 4.20 P.M. of the same day.
