This paper aims at empirically exploring the relationships between existing object-oriented coupling, cohesion, and inheritance measures probability of fault detection in system classes during testing. The underlying goal such a study is to better understand relationship design measurement OO systems quality software developed. Results show that many capture similar dimensions data set, thus reflecting fact them are based on principles hypotheses. Besides size classes, frequency method...

The effect of histrionicotoxin, the toxin isolated from Colombian frog, Dendrobates histrionicus, was investigated on frog ( Rana pipiens ) sartorius muscles using voltage clamp technique. After 30 minutes exposure, histrionicotoxin (3.5 x 10 -5 M) reduced amplitude end-plate current (EPC) to 26% control, shortened half decay time, but did not alter equilibrium potential EPC. slope relationship between log time EPC and membrane decreased 20%. reduction conductance G greater as became more...
Only about half of all eligible Americans have been screened for colorectal cancer (CRC). The objective this study was to test whether mailed educational materials and a fecal immunochemical (FIT), with or without scripted telephone reminder, led FIT testing. In addition, we compared changes in attitudes toward, readiness for, barriers screening from baseline follow-up after education screening.Subjects due CRC were recruited 16 Iowa Research Network family physician offices. Half the...
