case, a patient with a massive liver metastasis extending into the right chest, causing diaphragm elevation and leftward heart shift, was scheduled for complex surgery with pre-induction Veno-Arterial-Venous ECMO (VAV-ECMO) cannulation in the superior vena cava via right internal jugular (IJ) ...
This dilemma has motivated several articles on the axiomatisation of scientometric measures which can greatly help our understanding of their characteristics (Marchant 2009; Bouyssou and Marchant 2010; Kóczy and Nichifor 2013; Bouyssou and Marchant 2014; de la Vega and Volij 2018). The economic ...
The first of these random vectors forms a cornerstone of modern homology algorithms, while the second one provides a natural generalisation for the notion of vertex degree, and the third one may be viewed from the perspective ofU-statistics. To obtain distributional approximations for these random ...
they often depend on a skilled observer or a dedicated patient to report the outcome based on a set guideline. The subjective data collected is dependent on perception or feeling at the time of the test. They also require skilled observers and if not attentive, they may inadvertently induce ...
LV diastolic function was assessed using abnormal cutoff values (septal e′ < 7 cm/sec and E/e′ ≥ 15) recommended by the guideline [23]. Inter-observer agreements of septal e′ and E/e′ were evaluated by Pearson’s correlation among 50 subjects. The correlation coefficients...
Distances shown are straight-line distances on the map. Actual travel distances may vary. Property policies Children and extra beds Extra beds are dependent on the room you choose. Please check the individual room capacity for more details. ...
Normal Probability: If the residuals follow a normal distribution, they should follow a straight line, according to the normal probability plot. Even with typical data, expect some scatter. Only focus on distinct patterns, such as an “S-shaped” curve, which suggests that a response modification...
3. If strong disposability is assumed, then the DMUs C and D would be projected onto the horizontal dashed line and then to DMU B via slacks. If weak disposability is assumed, DMU C is evaluated as efficient, even though it produces fewer goods but pollutes more than DMU B; DMU C is...
