The effects of single doses of cimetidine 800, 1200, and 1600 mg, given at 2300 h or 800, and 1600 mg at 1800 h, have been studied in patients with duodenal ulcer disease in symptomatic remission, and compared with cimetidine 400 mg bd (0800 h and 2300 h) and ranitidine 300 mg (given at 1800 h) respectively. A dose related reduction in intragastric acidity was seen. All single nocturnal (2300 h...

Experiments with broiler breeder hens were undertaken to determine effect of feeding time and environmental temperature on various production variables, body weight, and feed consumption. Two temperature treatments were used: low cyclic temperature (10 to 25 C), and high cyclic temperature (21 to 39 C). The three feeding treatments were: fed one daily meal either at 0700 h (Treatment 1) or 1800...

Using rare surnames we track the socio-economic status of descendants of a sample of English rich and poor in 1800, until 2011. We measure social status through wealth, education, occupation, and age at death. Our method allows unbiased estimates of mobility rates. Paradoxically, we find two things. Mobility rates are lower than conventionally estimated. There is considerable persistence of sta...

Recent new results on the determination of the rapidity dependence of the differential inclusive jet cross section, 〈d σ/dET dη〉, as a function of jet ET in pp collisions at √ s = 1800 GeV, measured by the DØ detector at the Tevatron, are presented along with the comparisons to theoretical next-to-leading order (NLO) perturbative QCD predictions. Triple differential dijet cross sections, 〈d 3σ/...

OBJECTIVES We sought to investigate the impact of circadian patterns in the onset of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) on the practice of primary angioplasty. BACKGROUND A circadian variation in the time of onset of AMI with a peak in the morning hours has been described. METHODS We studied 1,702 consecutive patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction treated with primary...

"demographic time-bomb", and Project 2000, the authors provocatively conclude that even in the next century the handywomen/supportworker will still provide care,-"No elitist programme of nursing has yet been allowed to succeed. Would an alternative based on open entry and continuing opportunity have more prospects of serving both the occupation and its public?" Currently this must be the best s...

well-known study of English ecclesiastical thought on social questions, was clearly in an ideal position to investigate the campaigns and ruminations on fertility in this period, and he has done the job with exemplary thoroughness and care. It is possibly to be regretted that the author did not highlight the peculiarities of the English debate on these questions by reference to more European an...
