An Unusual Case of Asystole following Penetrating Neck Trauma and Anoxic Brain Injury
Bradycardia and transient asystole are well-described sequelae of a myriad of neurologic insults, ranging from focal to generalized injuries.Increased vagal tone also predisposes many individuals, particularly adolescents, to transient neurally mediated bradyarrhythmia.However, prolonged periods of sinus arrest without junctional or ventricular esc
Effects of Different Mulching Practices on Garlic (Allium sativum L.) Growth and Production
Garlic (Allium sativum L.) is a shallow-rooted crop mostly grown for cloves, which are used as a food flavoring condiment.Mulching helps to keep soil moisture by lowering energy loss through evaporation and preventing vapor transfer.A field study investigated how different mulches affect the garlic growth metrics.The experiment was conducted in the
Reflection of plane seismic waves at the surface of double-porosity dual-permeability materials
Abstract The present work deals with the reflection of plane seismic waves at the stress-free plane surface of double-porosity dual-permeability material.The incidence of two main waves (i.e., P 1 and SV) is considered.As a result of the incident waves, four reflected (three longitudinal and one shear) waves are found in the medium.The expressions
