Development of a test to measure gastric accommodation in humans. Am. J. Physiol. 277 (Gastrointest. Liver Physiol. 40): G1217–G1221, 1999.—Postprandial symptoms of bloating, distension, early satiety, and nausea are associate...

AIM To study accommodation in relation to different refractive errors, amblyopia and to measure the anatomical changes in the accommodating eye MATERIALS AND METHODS We studied the amplitude of accommodation (AA) in 150 patients in the age group 11 ± 30 years which included emmetropes, myopes, hypermetropes and hypermetropic amblyopes using the Royal Air Force (RAF) rule. The anterior chamber...

PURPOSE A reduced sensitivity to retinal image blur has been reported in myopes. Diminished blur detection reduces the error signal to the retinotopic (blur-induced) accommodation system and results in impaired accommodation responses under retinotopic conditions. This study was conducted to investigate retinotopic accommodation responses in emmetropia and myopia under dynamic conditions. MET...

The Hydrodynamic-Maxwell equations are studied, as a compressible model of charge transport induced by an electromagnetic field in semiconductors. A local smooth solution theory for the Cauchy problem is established by the author’s modification of the classical semigroup-resolvent approach of Kato. The author’s theory has three noteworthy features: (1) stability under vanishing heat flux, which...

Jointly working on shared digital artifacts – such as wikis – is a well-tried method of developing knowledge collectively within a group or organization. Our assumption is that such knowledge maturing is an accommodation process that can be measured by taking the writing process itself into account. This paper describes the development of a tool that detects accommodation automatically with the...

Peer-to-peer (P2P) accommodation rentals continue to grow at a phenomenal rate. Examining how this business model affects the competitive landscape of accommodation services is of strategic importance to hotels and tourism destinations. This study explores the competitive edge of P2P accommodation in comparison to hotels by extracting key content and themes from online reviews to explain the ke...

Accommodation is considered to be important by institutions interested in mental health care both in Australia and internationally Some authorities assert that no component of a community mental health system is more important than decent affordable housing. Unfortunately there has been little research in Australia into the consequences of discharging people with a primary diagnosis of schizoph...

This paper analyzes multiple active management (AM) techniques of active distribution network (ADN), and proposes an optimal coordination model of intermittent distributed generation (IDG) accommodation considering the timing characteristic of load and IDG. The objective of the model is to maximize the daily amount of IDG accommodation under the uncertainties of IDG and load. Various active man...

Natural viewing conditions place equal demands on the vergence and accommodation systems. The two responses are co-ordinated via the interactive components which couple the two systems: accommodative vergence and vergence accommodation. The crosslink components are usually quantified by the AC/A and CA/C ratios. Whether these ratios are stable entities, genetically determined, or modifiable by ...
