Abstract Aims Our aim is to describe the clinical characteristics and management of patients hospitalized with acute heart failure (HHF) ambulatory chronic (CHF) in Egypt compare them (HF) from other countries European Society Cardiology‐Heart Failure (ESC‐HF) registry. Methods results The ESC‐HF Long‐term Registry a prospective, multi‐centre, observational study presenting cardiology centres member ESC. From April 2011 February 2014, total 2145 HF were recruited 20 all over Egypt. Of these...
Abstract Spatial cognition is a pivotal consideration in hospital buildings. Potential circulation configuration alternatives hospitals have been filtered to 59 significant alternatives, be simulated using space syntax analyses for measuring connectivity, visual integration, and step depth. Best determined via comparison correlation analysis. A survey has conducted, comparing the preferences of professional architects with simulation outcomes. Results show that best worst exist triangular...
Abstract Aims This analysis evaluates gender differences in the Egyptian cohort of patients hospitalized for acute heart failure (AHF) European Society Cardiology Heart Failure Long‐Term Registry. Methods and results From April 2011 to September 2014, 1634 with AHF were enrolled by 20 hospitals all over Egypt. Of these patients, 1112 (68%) male 522 (32%) female. Women presented a higher admission systolic blood pressure resting rate. Compared men, women had body mass index (32.5 ± 9.0 vs....
Abstract Background Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction and nocturnal “nondipping” of blood pressure detected via ambulatory monitoring are predictors increased cardiovascular morbidity. Methods A prospective cohort study including normotensive women with a history preeclampsia in their current pregnancy was conducted. All cases were subjected to 24-hour 2-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography 3 months after delivery. Results This included 128 mean (SD) age 28.6 (5.1) years basal...
A growing attention has been paid to building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) from both architectural and engineering favorability. There are various computational tools developed provide computations optimize BIPVs often simulations for predicting their performance. This provides a great potential designers have different helpful be utilized. paper introduces comparative analysis of the most common that compute or simulate main parameters BIPVs: energy consumption, solar exposure radiation...
Residential satisfaction (RS) is an important characteristic of sustainable built environment and residential apartments. Yet, evaluating RS complicated due to its interconnection with many influential criteria, hence it hard formulate a single generic scale since differs widely depending on location along other variables. This paper presents developed measure in different apartments Egypt; the novelty study articulating numerical measurable criteria regarding apartment cases within three...
Robotic surgery is one of the most recent technologies in healthcare building field. Due to design complexity wards, computational implementations are being developed either measure effect inserting advanced as Electronic medical recorders and tele surgery, or evaluate alternatives on building. This paper presents a framework that responds need for coordinating phases Surgery Wards (RSWs) computationally. proposed RSWs can generate functional RSW more than solution each alternative. The has...
Self-learning is receiving great attention internationally in different fields, along with the best utilization of computational applications or methods. This paper introduces a novel approach for supporting Architectural Design Education (ADE) its early stages; implementation through MATLAB has been developed to conduct proposed processes. As scope, spaces’ furnishing design selected demonstrate and implementation, while office workspaces have as representative case. However, provides...
Recently, the automation of architectural design process has been focused specifically in Healthcare buildings (HCB) for easier implementation and faster feedback.Hence, a great evolution Computational Implementations (CIs) were appeared studied early stages HCB, such as generating solutions, evaluation solutions or others to provide helpful tools designers.This paper provides comparative analyses set CIs that can be applied on different these includes: a) programming topological diagram, b)...
Self-shaded buildings receive great attentions especially in high-rise building hot climate zones. This paper introduces a novel optimization approach for reforming layout shapes (BLSs) towards better self-shaded alternatives given shape, along with the determination of different treatments optimizing shape using grammar theory; their performance have been simulated by Autodesk Revit. Variables considered during generation process include treatments, range treatments' ratios and orientations...
