Markov Chains
Markov chains are central to the understanding of random processes. This is not only because they pervade the applications of random processes, but also because one can calculat...
Establishing rigour in qualitative research: the decision trail
The aim of this paper is to show the way in which the decision trail of a qualitative research process can be maintained. It is argued that the trustworthiness (rigour) of a stu...
Rape Trauma Syndrome
The authors interviewed and followed 146 patients admitted during a one-year period to the emergency ward of a city hospital with a presenting complaint of having been raped. Ba...
Retrieval of Crystallographically-Derived Molecular Geometry Information
The crystallographically determined bond length, valence angle, and torsion angle information in the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) has many uses. However, accessing it by ...
The Surviving Sepsis Campaign: Results of an international guideline-based performance improvement program targeting severe sepsis*
The Campaign was associated with sustained, continuous quality improvement in sepsis care. Although not necessarily cause and effect, a reduction in reported hospital mortality ...
Early Lactate-Guided Therapy in Intensive Care Unit Patients
In patients with hyperlactatemia on ICU admission, lactate-guided therapy significantly reduced hospital mortality when adjusting for predefined risk factors. As this was consis...
Managerial Dilemmas
In organisation theory a schism has developed between the traditional organisational behaviour literature, based in psychology, sociology and political science, and the more ana...
Merck molecular force field. V. Extension of MMFF94 using experimental data, additional computational data, and empirical rules
This article describes the extension of the Merck Molecular Force Field (MMFF94) to a much broader range of organic systems. It also describes a preliminary parameterization of ...
The Influence of Hospital Volume on Survival after Resection for Lung Cancer
Patients who undergo resection for lung cancer at hospitals that perform large numbers of such procedures are likely to survive longer than patients who have such surgery at hos...
Prediction of Mortality and Morbidity With a 6-Minute Walk Test in Patients With Left Ventricular Dysfunction
<h3>Objective.</h3> —To study the potential usefulness of the 6-minute walk test, a self-paced submaximal exercise test, as a prognostic indicator in patients with left ventricu...
Simplified Therapeutic Intervention Scoring System
Objectives To validate a simplified version of the Therapeutic Intervention Scoring System, the TISS-28, and to determine the association of TISS-28 with the time spent on score...
