The problem of information overload and ways to reduce it has been the focus of many researchers in the MIS literature (e.g. Yang et al. 2003, Farhoomand and Drury 2002, Lau et al. 2001, Chan 2001, Lin 2000, Grisé and Gallupe 1999, Tuttle and Burton 1999, Mendelson and Pillai 1998, Iselin 1989). The technological advances of the past few decades in the field of computer science and information ...

this work reports a facile sonochemical route in the synthesis of nano particle of deferasirox for the first time. one application of nanotechnology is in improvement of available treatments for various diseases. deferasirox (icl670 or exjade) is a tridentate chelating agent for removing transfusion overload iron in thalassemia patients. in the present work, deferasirox was prepared in nano size...

abstract background: iron overload is a clinical consequence of repeated blood transfusions and causes significant organ damage, morbidity, and mortality in the absence of proper treatment. the primary targets of iron chelators used for treating transfusional iron overload are the prevention of iron ingress into tissues and its intracellular scavenging. the present study was aimed at elucidatin...

Organizations experience today an increasing amount of information, which leads to a perceived information overload. This information overload is the cause for more and more wrong decisions and has therefore economic consequences. Especially decision-makers and knowledge intensive workers are affected. They often work in teams with several persons who have to share information relevant for thei...

Study of left ventricular pressure-volume relations in man has been limited by technical problems associated with left ventricular angiography. A new approach to this problem using simultaneous recording of left ventricular pressure and left ventricular volume (determined by echocardiography) was applied in 21 patients. Pressure-volume plots, constructed from pressure and volume values sampled ...

Purpose With the shift to an information-based society and de-centralisation of information, information overload has attracted a growing interest in computer science research communities. However, there is no clear understanding meaning term, while have been many proposed definitions, consensus. The goal this work was define concept “information overload”. In order do so, analysis using Rodger...

Regular packed cell transfusion in patients with thalassemia major leads to iron overload. Chelation therapy is one of the important aspects of thalassemia care as iron overload causes significant cardiac, hepatic, and endocrine dysfunction. We report a case of thalassemia major with severe iron overload causing cardiac and liver dysfunction who benefitted from triple drug chelation therapy. Tr...
