Introduction Dynamic arterial elastance (Eadyn), the relationship between pulse pressure variation (PPV) and stroke volume variation (SVV), has been suggested as a functional assessment of arterial load for predicting the arterial pressure response after volume expansion (VE). Although changes in Eadyn have been related with variations in arterial load, the effect of acute arterial tone changes...

0590 V isceral leishmaniasis (VL), commonly known as kala-azar, from the Hindu vernacular, is a human systemic disease caused by parasitic protozoan species of the genus Leishmania. Transmitted by the bite of the tiny and seemingly innocuous female phlebotomine sandfl y (Figure 1), the parasite enters macrophages, where it multiplies and establishes the infection (Figure 2). A multitude of clin...

The need to integrate several versions of a program into a common one arises frequently, but it is a tedious and time consuming task to merge programs by hand. The program-integration algorithm proposed by Horwitz, Prins, and Reps provides a way to create a semantics-based tool for integrating a base program with two or more variants. The integration algorithm is based on the assumption that an...
