Acute triangulations of polyhedra and R^n [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2009
We study the problem of acute triangulations of convex polyhedra and the space R^n. Here an acute triangulation is a triangulation into simplices whose dihedral angles are acute. We prove that acute triangulations of the n-cube do not exist for n>=4. Further, we prove that acute triangulations of the space R^n do not exist for n>= 5.

Acute Triangulation of Constant Curvature Polygonal Complexes [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
We prove that every 2-dimensional polygonal complex, where each polygon is given a constant curvature metric and belongs to one of finitely many isometry classes can be triangulated using only acute simplices. There is no requirement on the complex to be finite or even locally finite.

Meta‐analysis of in‐hospital delay before surgery as a risk factor for complications in patients with acute appendicitis

open access: yesBritish Journal of Surgery, 2018
The traditional fear that every case of acute appendicitis will eventually perforate has led to the generally accepted emergency appendicectomy with minimized delay.

Acute appendicitis: An overview

open access: yesEast African Medical Journal, 2009
To provide an overview of the changing epidemiology of acute appendicitis in the developed and developing countries and the presumptive reasons.Major published series of the last two decades were reviewed using Medline Search and Index Medicus. The myriad of diagnostic approaches currently employed to reduce the hitherto high rates of negative ...

On the hot spots conjecture for acute triangles [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2013
We show that the hot spots conjecture of J. Rauch holds for acute triangles if one of the angles is not larger than $\pi/6$. More precisely, we show that the second Neumann eigenfunction on those acute triangles has no maximum or minimum inside the domain.

Prospective Observational Study on acute Appendicitis Worldwide (POSAW)

open access: yesWorld Journal of Emergency Surgery, 2018
BackgroundAcute appendicitis (AA) is the most common surgical disease, and appendectomy is the treatment of choice in the majority of cases. A correct diagnosis is key for decreasing the negative appendectomy rate.

No acute tetrahedron is an 8-reptile [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
An $r$-gentiling is a dissection of a shape into $r \geq 2$ parts which are all similar to the original shape. An $r$-reptiling is an $r$-gentiling of which all parts are mutually congruent. This article shows that no acute tetrahedron is an $r$-gentile or $r$-reptile for any $r < 9$, by showing that no acute spherical diangle can be dissected into ...

Appendicolith appendicitis is clinically complicated acute appendicitis—is it histopathologically different from uncomplicated acute appendicitis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Colorectal Disease, 2019
Acute appendicitis may present as uncomplicated and complicated and these disease forms differ both epidemiologically and clinically. Complicated acute appendicitis has traditionally been defined as an appendicitis complicated by perforation or a ...
