An Almost Tight RMR Lower Bound for Abortable Test-And-Set [PDF]
We prove a lower bound of Omega(log n/loglog n) for the remote memory reference (RMR) complexity of abortable test-and-set (leader election) in the cache-coherent (CC) and the distributed shared memory (DSM) model. This separates the complexities of abortable and non-abortable test-and-set, as the latter has constant RMR complexity (Golab, Hendler ...

Global estimation of unintended pregnancy and abortion using a Bayesian hierarchical random walk model [PDF]
Unintended pregnancy and abortion estimates are needed to inform and motivate investment in global health programmes and policies. Variability in the availability and reliability of data poses challenges for producing estimates. We developed a Bayesian model that simultaneously estimates incidence of unintended pregnancy and abortion for 195 countries ...

Polymorphisms of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, angiotensin converting enzyme and coagulation factor XIII genes in patients with recurrent spontaneous abortion [PDF]
We investigated polymorphisms of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE ) and coagulation factor XIII (FXIII) genes and their association with recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) in Iranian patients and normal ...

Estimating the risk of adverse birth outcomes in pregnant women undergoing non-obstetric surgery using routinely collected NHS data: an observational study [PDF]
Background: Previous research suggests that non-obstetric surgery is carried out in 1 – 2% of all pregnancies. However, there is limited evidence quantifying the associated risks.

The Impact of Sex Education on Sexual Activity, Pregnancy, and Abortion [PDF]
The purpose of this study is to find a relation between sex education and abortion in the United States. Accordingly, multivariate logistic regression is employed to study the relation between abortion and frequency of sex, pre-marriage sex, and pregnancy by rape.

Abstract Spontaneous hemoperitoneum in pregnancy (SHIP) is defined as sudden, nontraumatic intraperitoneal bleeding that occurs during pregnancy or up to 42 days postpartum. The incidence ranges between 4 and 4.9 per 100 000 births. Although seen rarely, it is associated with perinatal morbidity and mortality due to maternal hemodynamic instability ...

Does male age have an influence on the risk of spontaneous abortion? An approach combining semiparametric and parametric regression [PDF]
Couples from Western countries tend to delay their pregnancies, which may affect their ability to obtain a live birth. We assessed the association between male age and the risk of spontaneous abortion taking into account woman's age.
