IRDS affects about 1% of newborns and is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in preterm infants. [5] Data have shown the choice of elective caesarean sections to strikingly increase the incidence of respiratory distress in term infants; dating back to 1995, the UK first documented 2,000 annual caesarean section births requiring ...
Adult diagnosis is based on a PaO 2 /FiO 2 ratio (ratio of partial pressure arterial oxygen and fraction of inspired oxygen) of less than 300 mm Hg despite a positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) of more than 5 cm H 2 O. [1] Cardiogenic pulmonary edema, as the cause, must be excluded. [4]
[1] There is robust evidence that a single course of antenatal corticosteroids (i.e., 24 mg of betamethasone or dexamethasone), when there is a risk of preterm birth (at less than 34 weeks of gestation), reduces the risk of child death, regardless of resource level. [1] [6]
In fluid dynamics, the Hagen–Poiseuille equation is a physical law that gives the pressure drop in a fluid flowing through a long cylindrical pipe. The assumptions of the equation are that the flow is laminar viscous and incompressible and the flow is through a constant circular cross-section that is substantially longer than its diameter.
[a] Thus, a signed 32-bit integer can only represent integer values from −(2 31) to 2 31 − 1 inclusive. Consequently, if a signed 32-bit integer is used to store Unix time, the latest time that can be stored is 2 31 − 1 (2,147,483,647) seconds after epoch, which is 03:14:07 on Tuesday, 19 January 2038.

Renewal theory texts usually also define the spent time or the backward recurrence time (or the current lifetime) as () = (). Its distribution can be calculated in a similar way to that of the residual time. Likewise, the total life time is the sum of backward recurrence time and forward recurrence time.
Area 25 is the largest named area in the Nevada National Security Site at 254 square miles (660 km 2), [1] and has its own direct access from Route 95. [1] Area 25 is commonly called "Jackass Flats" because it is composed primarily of a shallow alluvial basin by that name. [1] It was originally known as "Area 400", [2] and was renamed "Area 25 ...
Natural time analysis is a statistical method applied to analyze complex time series and critical phenomena, based on event counts as a measure of "time" rather than the clock time. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Natural time concept was introduced by P. Varotsos , N. Sarlis and E. Skordas in 2001. [ 3 ]
