  2. Ejection fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ejection_fraction

    An ejection fraction (EF) is the volumetric fraction (or portion of the total) of fluid (usually blood) ejected from a chamber (usually the heart) with each contraction (or heartbeat). It can refer to the cardiac atrium , [ 1 ] ventricle , [ 2 ] gall bladder, [ 3 ] or leg veins, [ 4 ] although if unspecified it usually refers to the left ...

  3. Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_failure_with...

    Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a form of heart failure in which the ejection fraction – the percentage of the volume of blood ejected from the left ventricle with each heartbeat divided by the volume of blood when the left ventricle is maximally filled – is normal, defined as greater than 50%; [1] this may be measured by echocardiography or cardiac catheterization.

  4. Simpson's paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simpson's_paradox

    A study by Kock suggests that the probability that Simpson's paradox would occur at random in path models (i.e., models generated by path analysis) with two predictors and one criterion variable is approximately 12.8 percent; slightly higher than 1 occurrence per 8 path models. [25]

    S in V 1 or V 2 ≥30 mm; R in V 5 or V 6 ≥30 mm; 3 ST-T Abnormalities: ST-T vector opposite to QRS without digitalis; ST-T vector opposite to QRS with digitalis; 3 1 Negative terminal P mode in V 1 1 mm in depth and 0.04 sec in duration (indicates left atrial enlargement) 3 Left axis deviation (QRS of −30° or more) 2 QRS duration ≥0.09 ...

  6. Sphere packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sphere_packing

    When the smaller sphere has a radius greater than 0.41421 of the radius of the larger sphere, it is no longer possible to fit into even the octahedral holes of the close-packed structure. Thus, beyond this point, either the host structure must expand to accommodate the interstitials (which compromises the overall density), or rearrange into a ...

    where is the volume fraction of the fibers in the composite (and is the volume fraction of the matrix).. If it is assumed that the composite material behaves as a linear-elastic material, i.e., abiding Hooke's law = for some elastic modulus of the composite and some strain of the composite , then equations 1 and 2 can be combined to give

  8. Close-packing of equal spheres - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Close-packing_of_equal_spheres

    [1] [2] Highest density is known only for 1, 2, 3, 8, and 24 dimensions. [3] Many crystal structures are based on a close-packing of a single kind of atom, or a close-packing of large ions with smaller ions filling the spaces between them. The cubic and hexagonal arrangements are very close to one another in energy, and it may be difficult to ...

  9. Overlap coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overlap_coefficient

    The overlap coefficient, [note 1] or Szymkiewicz–Simpson coefficient, [citation needed] [3] [4] [5] is a similarity measure that measures the overlap between two finite sets.It is related to the Jaccard index and is defined as the size of the intersection divided by the size of the smaller of two sets:
