We construct discrete space-time coordinates separated by the Lorentz-invariant intervals h/me in space and h/mc2 in time using discrimination (XOR) between pa?rs of independently generated bit-strings; we prove that if this space is homogeneous and isotropic, it can have only 1, 2 or 3 spatial dimensions once we have related time to a global ordering operator. On this space we construct exact ...

SUMMARY A general perception exists that outcomes of orthopaedic procedures in patient's with Workers' Compensation claims fare worse than those of patients without such claims. We retrospectively reviewed the outcomes of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction in patients who have Workers' Compensation claims. This minimum 2-year follow-up study analyzed the occupational, functional, a...

Noyes [Noyes, R. M. (1981) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 78, 7248-7249] has obtained a result for the Gibbs free energy per unit mass in a continuous flow stirred tank reactor, which states that the steady-state free energy increases monotonically with decreasing residence time for any stable stationary point. We show that his derivation is based on an erroneous stability criterion. We further inv...
