Z. Naturforsch. 55 a, 481^185 (2000); received February 9, 2000 We have performed an investigation of the internal rotation of the methyl group in trans-cis ethyl vinyl ether by using molecular beam-Fourier transform Microwave (MB-FTMW) spectroscopy. Rotational spectra (up to J = 20) were recorded in the frequency region 4 -19 GHz. Due to the internal rotation of the methyl group, some rotation...

Introduction Deliberate self-poisoning is a common presentation to hospitals, with 13,268 presentations to Scottish hospitals in 2004 accounting for 1.11% of total admissions [1]. It accounts for up to 4% of ICU admissions, with the majority being under forty years old and predominantly male [2]. In a recent study of 481 patients, the average length of stay was 0.7 days, and hospital mortality ...

An investment design 〈v, b, r〉, with v ≥ 2 and b ≥ r ≥ 1, is a matrix of v rows and b columns of 0-1 integer values such that each row sums to r, and the largest dot product between all pairs of rows is minimal. Equivalently, there are v subsets of size r within a given set of b elements, such that the largest intersection of any two of the v sets has minimal size. For example, the following fi...

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of gestational weight gain in obese glucose-tolerant women. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We performed a historical cohort study of 481 women with prepregnancy BMI > or = 30 kg/m2 and a normal 2-h 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) during the third trimester (according to World Health Organization criteria). Data on OGTT results and clinical outcomes wer...

Introduction Retroperitoneal fibrosis (RF) is a fibrotic process in the retroperitoneum, that often causes ureteral obstruction. This condition, first described by Albarran in 1905, became an established clinical entity in 1948 owing to the work of Ormond. Studying the origins of this illness, Koep and Zuidema (1977) reviewed 481 cases of RF, of which 68% were considered idiopathic. This study ...
