Six cycles of dexamethasone (40 mg per day for four sequential days) every 28 days induced remissions in 10 patients with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). Whether the same results could be achieved in 10 patients with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) was investigated by comparing the Rivermead mobility index (RMI) before and after six cycles of treatment. Three...

In a world of increasing mobility, there is a growing need for people to communicate with each other and have timely access to information regardless of the location of the individuals or the information. With the advent of moblle technology, the way of communication has changed. The gira system is basically a mobile phone technology service. In this paper we discuss about a novel local area ne...

With the increasing adoption of Java for parallel and distributed computing, there is a strong motivation for enhancing the expressive elegance of the RMI paradigm with flexible and adaptable communication substrates. Java RMI is an especially powerful and semantically comprehensive framework for distributed Java applications – but the default Java RMI implementation is bound to a concrete wire...

OBJECTIVES This study was designed to determine the prevalence of unrecognized myocardial infarction (UMI), as well as risk factors, and to compare prognosis after detection of previously UMI to that after recognized myocardial infarction (RMI). BACKGROUND Past studies revealed that a significant proportion of MIs escape recognition, and that prognosis after such events is poor, but the epide...

Requirements Evolution is considered one of the most critical issues in developing computer-based systems. Despite the recognised role of requirements in Software Engineering, Requirements Evolution still remains a phenomenon little understood from both quantitative and qualitative perspectives. This paper investigates our ability to understand the Requirements Evolution Process by means of met...
