A procedure to evaluate coincidence-summing correction values in gamma-ray spectrometry with HPGe detectors

2009

The spectrometric analysis of a gamma-emitter sample measured in "close geometry" can be affected by errors due to coincidence-summing effects that can occur when two or more coincident photons (real coincidences) within the resolution time of the spectrometric system are emitted. The probability that these effects occur depends primarily on the nuclide decay scheme, the sample-detector distance and detector intrinsic-efficiency whereas results independent from the sample nuclide activity. Coincidence-summing corrections of the photopeak areas are requested, in particular, when the gamma ray spectrometric analysis is aimed to efficiency or activity determination. In this work is reported a …

Causas de la lesión de isquiosurales en fútbol: Una revisión bibliográfica desde las etapas formativas hasta la profesional

2021

espanolObjetivos: identificar las principales causas de lesion de isquiosurales en las diferentes etapas de formacion, desde la etapa sub-12 hasta la etapaprofesional, y establecer la influencia de la lesion previa de isquiosurales como causa principal de sufrir una nueva lesion.Metodo: la busqueda bibliografica se realizo en Dialnet, Pubmed, Web of Science, Scopus y SportDISCUS, entre las fechas de enero de 2010 hasta mayo de2020.Resultados: la busqueda concluyo que el patron de lesion isquiosural mas concurrido es el de jugador de edad avanzada, con mayores valores de fuerza ymenores valores de flexibilidad, y con un mayor grado de anteversion pelvica. El envejecimiento, los movimientos c…

Comments on the paper "COINCIDENCE THEOREMS FOR SOME MULTIVALUED MAPPINGS" by B. E. RHOADES, S. L. SINGH AND CHITRA KULSHRESTHA

2011

The aim of this note is to point out an error in the proof of Theorem 1 in the paper entitled “Coincidence theorems for some multivalued mappings” by B. E. Rhoades, S. L. Singh and Chitra Kulshrestha [Internat. J. Math. & Math. Sci., 7 (1984), 429-434], and to indicate a way to repair it.

Spatio-temporal cluster detection of chickenpox in Valencia, Spain in the period 2008-2012.

2015

Chickenpox is a highly contagious airborne disease caused by <em>Varicella zoster</em>, which affects nearly all non-immune children worldwide with an annual incidence estimated at 80-90 million cases. To analyze the spatiotemporal pattern of the chickenpox incidence in the city of Valencia, Spain two complementary statistical approaches were used. First, we evaluated the existence of clusters and spatio-temporal interaction; secondly, we used this information to find the locations of the spatio-temporal clusters via the space-time permutation model. The first method used detects any aggregation in our data but does not provide the spatial and temporal information. The second me…

The heart in the elderly critically ill patient

2002

Cardiac complications such as myocardial infarction and congestive heart failure are the primary source of perioperative morbidity and mortality in elderly surgical patients. This is the result of structural and functional age-related changes in the heart and the vasculature and an increasing incidence of cardiovascular disorders. Appropriate perioperative management of the elderly patient should be based on the extent of functional compromise, the type and severity of pre-existing disease, and the invasiveness of the surgical procedure. Current studies suggest that appropriately administered medical therapy, particularly beta-adrenergic blockade, may reduce perioperative cardiovascular mor…

Consensus on the management of hyperkalemia in patients with heart failure: Recommendations from the SEC-SEMI

2020

Abstract Use of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors (RAASi) in patients with heart failure (HF) and reduced ejection fraction is associated with functional improvement, an increase in perceived quality of life, a reduction in the probability of cardiovascular death, and a decrease in the number of hospitalizations. Some of these drugs are also efficacious in patients with chronic kidney disease and albuminuria as well as in patients with resistant hypertension. Despite their numerous benefits, RAASi are associated with an increase in incidence of hyperkalemia, especially in patients with concomitant chronic kidney disease. Hyperkalemia is a common electrolyte disorder that is de…

Temporal trends and predictors of inhospital death in patients hospitalised for heart failure in Germany.

2020

Abstract Aims We investigated trends in incidence, case fatality rate, patient characteristics and adverse inhospital events of patients hospitalised for heart failure in Germany. Methods and results The German nationwide inpatient sample (2005–2016) was used for this analysis. Patients hospitalised due to heart failure were selected for analysis. Temporal trends in the incidence of hospitalisations, case fatality rate and treatments were analysed and predictors of inhospital death were identified. The analysis comprised a total number of 4,539,140 hospitalisations (52.0% women, 81.0% aged ≥70 years) due to heart failure. Although hospitalisations increased from 381 (2005) to 539 per 100,00…

Impact of Circulatory Assistance in the Early Evolution After Heart Transplantation. Unicentric Experience.

2021

ABSTRACT Background Heart transplantation (HT) is the reference treatment for patients with terminal heart failure. In recent years there has been a progressive increase in HT procedures in patients who have a circulatory support (CS). Methods This is a retrospective single-center study of 293 consecutive patients who underwent HT from 2009 to 2018, analyzing the evolution of the 2 cohorts: patients with and without CS as a bridge to HT. Baseline and evolutionary clinical data collected following the usual follow-up protocol were recorded, including clinical events observed during the follow-up 1 year after the procedure. Results The subgroup of patients transplanted with CS showed a higher…

Urticaria in children and adolescents: An updated review of the pathogenesis and management

2018

The present survey represents the latest data on diagnosis and management of childhood urticaria. It has been observed that urticaria occurs less often in children than adults, with symptoms rarely lasting for over 6 weeks. Triggers or aggravating factors can be found only in 21%-55% of cases. Finding autoantibodies in children does not impact a disease prognosis, unlike in adult patients, where the presence of autoantibodies is associated with a more prolonged run of the disease, a more severe prognosis and more intensive treatment methods. The incidence of food allergy equals to 8%-10% of cases. The incidence of Helicobacter Pylori infection in children is lower than that in adults and co…
