At a dinner in the Great Hall of the Queen's University of Belfast on the 12th December 1989 the Northern Ireland Branch of the Medical Women's Federation celebrated the centenary of the first admission of women to the classes of the Faculty of Medicine of the Queen's College, Belfast, and to the clinical classes of the Belfast Royal Hospital. In September 1889 a meeting of medical professors a...

We consider all complex projective manifolds X that satisfy at least one of the following three conditions: (1) There exists a pair (C , φ), where C is a compact connected Riemann surface and φ : C −→ X a holomorphic map, such that the pull back φ∗TX is not semistable. (2) The variety X admits an étale covering by an abelian variety. (3) The dimension dimX ≤ 1. We prove that the following class...

Nurse anesthesia programs across the country are frequently in search of better selection criteria and more efficient evaluation systems. The goal is to select qualified applicants who will successfully complete the program and represent the profession of nurse anesthesia. The primary method of assessing the quality of candidates' noncognitive attributes at the Oakland University Beaumont Progr...

In this paper, we investigate the communication cost of reproducing Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering correlations arising from bipartite quantum systems. We characterize the set of bipartite quantum states which admits a local hidden state model augmented with c bits of classical communication from an untrusted party (Alice) to a trusted party (Bob). In case of one bit of information (c =...

This paper examines the effect of attending elite private high school on college placement using admissions data from the most selective high school in a large metropolitan area. To overcome omitted variable bias, we limit the sample to admitted applicants and control directly for the scores assigned by admissions based on in-depth analyses of the applicants

Purpose. To evaluate the portion of hospitalized patients dying without prior intensive care unit (ICU) admission and assess whether death could have been prevented by intensive care. Methods. In this prospective, observational, multicenter study, data of adults dying in and outside the ICU in 5 tertiary and 14 secondary hospitals were collected during six months. A group of experts categorized...

Objective The purpose of this paper is to detail the development and implementation of a patient focused pre‐admission process, part of which is the check list identified within this paper and comprising the main point of the paper because it is based on patient and publication evidence for women with breast cancer. Women with breast cancer together with health professionals had specific input ...

Background: Toxic exposures in childhood are major health concern. In this hospital-based study, we sought to investigate socio-epidemiological factors contributing to acute pediatric poisoning in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India. Methods: This prospective cross-sectional study was conducted at the Kanchi Kamakoti CHILDS Trust Hospital (KKCTH), a tertiary care hospital for children in Chennai. Child...

We construct a smoothly bounded pseudoconvex domain whose boundary contains no complex analytic variety such that some boundary point admits no holomorphic peak function.
