It is well known that members of families of polynomials, that are orthogonal with respect to an inner product determined by a nonnegative measure on the real axis, satisfy a three-term recursion relation. Analogous recursion formulas are available for orthogonal Laurent polynomials with a pole at the origin. This paper investigates recursion relations for orthogonal rational functions with arb...

Various dimensions of the human vestibular aqueduct were evaluated in two groups, patient and control, and these measurements were compared. Both groups were examined clinically, followed by audiometric evaluation and temporal bone high resolution CT scan. It was found that in approximately one third of the patient group (with idiopathic SNHL), the vestibular aqueduct was 1.5 mm or larger. ...

aim and background:   the assessment of patient satisfaction with anesthesia, the balance between expectations and perception of what was received, is an essential component of continuous quality improvement in anesthesiology. in our center there have been few studies conducted in the anesthesia field, which have assessed patient’s satisfaction. in this prospective study we have evaluated patie...

background: patient participation means involvement of the patient in decision making or expressing opinions about different treatment methods, which includes sharing information, feelings and signs and accepting health team instructions. objectives: given the importance of patient participation in healthcare decision making which empowers patients and improves services and health outcomes, thi...

PURPOSE This study examined moderating effects of physician communication behaviors on relationships between patient requests for antidepressant medications and subsequent prescribing. METHODS We conducted a secondary analysis of a randomized trial. Primary care physicians (N = 152) each had 1 or 2 unannounced visits from standardized patients portraying the role of major depression or adjust...
