Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) has generally been withheld from the treatment of patients with chronic airflow obstruction (CAO), in view risk hyperinflation and lack documented benefit. We studied 10 mechanically ventilated exacerbated CAO air trapping to determine impact PEEP on lung mechanics, alveolar pressure, work breathing. levels 5 cmH2O were applied whose pressures be positive when breathing against ambient (the auto-PEEP effect). All under two conditions: every breath...
We measured the mechanical work performed by 12 acutely ill patients during synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation to determine influence of volume-cycled machine assistance on inspiratory timing, respiratory muscle force development, and external output. The frequency tidal volume spontaneous breaths increased at lower levels ventilation, but time fraction did not vary across spectrum support. As support was withdrawn, pressure-time product progressively for both assisted breathing...
Twenty-one of 496 (4%) patients with chronic bifascicular block, studied and followed prospectively, had block distal to the His bundle (BDH) induced by atrial pacing during initial electrophysiologic studies. In six, BDH was noted pacing-induced atrioventricular (AV) nodal Wenckebach periods (at paced rates 150--190 beats/min), in short HH cycles after AV blocked P (lond cycle). The AH interval normal all six HV four. None has developed a mean follow-up 5.33 +/- 0.48 years. 15 patients,...
We provide AAVSO Photometric All-Sky Survey (APASS) photometry in the Landolt BV and Sloan g'r'i' bands for all 425,743 stars included fourth RAVE Data Release. The internal accuracy of APASS stars, expressed as error mean data obtained separately calibrated over a median four distinct observing epochs distributed between 2009 2013, is 0.013, 0.012, 0.014, 0.021 mag B, V, g', r', i' bands, respectively. equally high external has been verified on secondary photometric standard not involved...
A 41-year-old man had chronic, recurrent, drug-resistant paroxysmal right atrial tachycardia. Electrophysiologic studies revealed features suggesting reentrance, including induction and termination of tachycardia with rapid pacing extrastimuli. Endocardial catheter mapping localized the origin to appendage. Intraoperative epicardial refined localization posterolateral rim The appendage was excised permanently cured. Microelectrode on tissue an inducible rhythm a small area endocardium,...
To describe the epicardial ventricular activation sequence in intact human heart, we obtained maps from 11 patients with normal QRS undergoing open heart surgery. Epicardial breakthrough (EBT), defined as emergence of a radially propagating wavefront, occurred three to five sites each patient, and was earliest anterior right ventricle, 7--25 msec (mean 17 msec) after onset all patients. Subsequent EBT inferior ventricle (10 10 patients), anterolateral left (13 (eight seven patients). Latest...

This is a study of Tanuma Okitsugu, the most powerful political figure in Japan during quarter century between 1760-1786. The book also provides descriptive history mid-eighteenth-century Japan.
Few notions are so widely held among students of Japanese economic history as the view that land tax during Tokugawa period was cruelly oppressive. It is thought to have left peasantry no significant surplus after production costs, and moreover become heavier time passed. I propose in this paper examine certain evidence bearing on view, which strongly influences interpretation modern history.
An analysis of the annual population registers from 1717-1830 for village Nakahara in Japan indicated that infanticide was a common practice and major factor responsible low growth rate which characterized during 18th century. The data used to construct fertility curve. curve villagers did not contraception; however, consistent with type expected practicing infanticide. sex ratios, birth order, intervals provided additional evidence overall ratios were abnormally skewed; however when order...
By-Employments, one may suppose, tend to ready preindustrial people for modern economic roles since they represent an incipient shift from agriculture other occupations, spread skills useful industrialization among the most backward and numerous part of population, stimulate ambition geographical mobility. Although widespread in Western societies, by-employments have been mainly treated there standpoint history industry neglect their effect on habits, aptitudes, outlook fanners wives...
At many U.S. healthcare facilities, supervision of anesthesiology residents and/or Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs) is a major daily responsibility anesthesiologists. Our department implemented process by which the provided each anesthesiologist working in operating rooms was evaluated resident(s) and CRNA(s) with whom they worked previous day.Requests for evaluation were sent via e-mail to resident CRNA after an room. Supervision scores analyzed 6 months, aligned cases'...
SMALL doses of progesterone injected simultaneously with estrogens produce optimal lobulo-alveolar growth in the mammary glands mouse (Mixner and Turner, 1940) or rabbit (Lyons McGinty, 1941), while rat relatively larger are required to elicit a comparable reaction (Curtiss, 1949). Hamolsky Sparrow (1943) first showed that relaxin, small estradiol progesterone, resulted good immature, estradiol- primed, ovariectomized rats. Administration combination any two these hormones dosage used yields...
