  2. Chvorinov's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chvorinov's_rule

    Where t is the solidification time, V is the volume of the casting, A is the surface area of the casting that contacts the mold, n is a constant, [clarification needed] and B is the mold constant. This relationship can be expressed more simply as: = Where the modulus M is the ratio of the casting's volume to its surface area:

  3. D-value (microbiology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D-value_(microbiology)

    In microbiology, in the context of a sterilization procedure, the D-value or decimal reduction time (or decimal reduction dose) is the time (or dose of an antimicrobial drug) required, at a given condition (e.g. temperature) or set of conditions, to achieve a one-log reduction, that is, to kill 90% of relevant microorganisms.

  4. Survival analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survival_analysis

    The life table summarizes the events and the proportion surviving at each event time point. The columns in the life table have the following interpretation: time gives the time points at which events occur. n.risk is the number of subjects at risk immediately before the time point, t.

  5. Baux score - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baux_score

    The score is an index which takes into account the correlative and causal relationship between mortality and factors including advancing age, burn size, the presence of inhalational injury. [2] Studies have shown that the Baux score is highly correlative with length of stay in hospital due to burns and final outcome.

  6. Survival function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survival_function

    The y-axis is the proportion of subjects surviving. The graphs show the probability that a subject will survive beyond time t. Four survival functions. For example, for survival function 1, the probability of surviving longer than t = 2 months is 0.37. That is, 37% of subjects survive more than 2 months. Survival function 1

  7. Stachybotrys chartarum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stachybotrys_chartarum

    Stachybotrys chartarum (/ s t æ k iː ˈ b ɒ t r ɪ s tʃ ɑː r ˈ t ɛər ə m /, stak-ee-BO-tris char-TARE-əm), [2] also known as black mold [3] is a species of microfungus that produces its conidia in slime heads. Because of misinformation, S. chartarum has been inappropriately referred to as toxic mold.

  8. Standard normal table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_normal_table

    Since probability tables cannot be printed for every normal distribution, as there are an infinite variety of normal distributions, it is common practice to convert a normal to a standard normal (known as a z-score) and then use the standard normal table to find probabilities. [2]

  9. Model for End-Stage Liver Disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_for_End-Stage_Liver...

    The Model for End-Stage Liver Disease, or MELD, is a scoring system for assessing the severity of chronic liver disease.It was initially developed to predict mortality within three months of surgery in patients who had undergone a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) procedure, [1] and was subsequently found to be useful in determining prognosis and prioritizing for receipt of ...
