(British Institute of Radiology, 2012-08-01)This study compares the clinical performance of three digital mammography system types in a breast cancer screening programme. 28 digital mammography systems from three different vendors were included in the study. The ... -
A comparison of the effects of decommissioning, catch quotas and mesh regulation in restoring a depleted fishery.
(National University of Ireland, Galway, 1998-07)Possible means of rehabilitating the manY depleted fisheries in European waters now form a topic of great interest and relevance. This paper uses bioeconomic analysis to predict returns for the Irish Sea Nephrops ... -
A Comparison of the effects of Sensory-Integration Therapy and Behavioural Intervention on Challenging Behaviour and Academic Performance with Children with Autism
(2012-11)Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder and presents as a complex and often puzzling category of conditions. Parents of children with ASD face a dilemma when selecting the most efficient and ... -
Comparison of the fluorescence behavior of a biocrude oil and crude petroleum oils
(ACS Publications (American Chemical Society), 2006-02-15)The production and characterization of biocrude and petroleum like products from natural, renewable resources such as oil-bearing plant seeds is an interesting area of research at the moment. The present article discusses ... -
Comparison of the glidescope(r), the pentax aws(r), and the truview evo2(r) with the macintosh laryngoscope in experienced anaesthetists: a manikin study
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2008-12-05)Background. The Pentax Airwayscope (R), the Glidescope (R), and the Truview EVO2 (R) constitute three novel laryngoscopes that facilitate visualization of the vocal cords without alignment of the oral, pharyngeal, and ... -
Comparison of the Glidescope® and Pentax AWS® laryngoscopes to the Macintosh laryngoscope for use by Advanced Paramedics in easy and simulated difficult intubation
(2009)Background Intubation of the trachea in the pre-hospital setting may be lifesaving in severely ill and injured patients. However, tracheal intubation is frequently difficult to perform in this challenging environment, is ... -
Comparison of the performance of several recent hydrogen combustion mechanisms
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2014-03-12)A large set of experimental data was accumulated for hydrogen combustion: ignition measurements in shock tubes (770 data points in 53 datasets) and rapid compression machines (229/20), concentration time profiles in flow ... -
