Background and aims: Poverty is a multidimensional phenomenon that can be defined in both economic and social terms. The paper attempts to review the existing evidence to understand the relation between poverty and ill health in the context of the limited conceptual and operational definitions of these terms. The paper uses two of Hills criteria- reversibility and dose response relationship to ...

atrial dissociation is characterized by different types of p waves captured in an electrocardiogram, usually seen in critically ill or post-cardiac transplantation patients. our case demonstrates a 55-year-old man, presenting with chest pain (unstable angina) in the emergency department with transient double-p waves; representing the phenomenon. our case did not have any of the suggested causes...

the main purpose of this article is to increase the efficiency of the least squares method in numerical solution of ill-posed functional and physical equations. determining the least squares of a given function in an arbitrary set is often an ill-posed problem. in this article, by defining artificial constraint and using lagrange multipliers method, the attempt is to turn -dimensional least squ...

We thank Drs. Deane and Horowitz (1) for bringing this work to our attention. Their results provide further support for our contention that glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) therapy represents a safe and effective intervention to improve glycemic control in critically ill, hospitalized patients both with and without preexisting type 2 diabetes. In agreement with us (2), they recognize that “insul...
