Comparison of the LMA-ProSeal™ and LMA-Classic™ in children [PDF]
The LMA-ProSeal is a new laryngeal mask airway with a rear cuff and drainage tube that allows a higher seal pressure than the LMA-Classic for the same intra-cuff pressure, and it permits drainage of gastric secretions and access to the alimentary tract. The LMA-ProSeal can be used in children but it does not have a rear cuff.

Musical instruments are said to have a personality, which we notice in the sound that they produce. The oscillation mechanism inside woodwinds is commonly studied, but the transmission from internal waveforms to radiated sound is often overlooked ...

Medical B-mode ultrasound is widely used for the examination of children’s limbs, including soft tissue, muscle, and bone. However, for the accurate examination of the bone only, it is often replaced by more restrictive clinical modalities.

Comparative Evaluation of Placement of Auragain, ProSeal and Protector Laryngeal Mask Airways using Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy: A Randomised Clinical Study [PDF]
Introduction: Supraglottic Airway Devices (SAD) can be used instead of endotracheal intubation in both regular and complicated airway situations. Auragain, ProSeal and Protector Laryngeal Mask Airways (LMA) are second generation LMAs.

Divergent drivers of leaf trait variation within species, among species, and among functional groups. [PDF]
Understanding variation in leaf functional traits-including rates of photosynthesis and respiration and concentrations of nitrogen and phosphorus-is a fundamental challenge in plant ecophysiology. When expressed per unit leaf area, these traits typically

Parameter identification of a physical model of brass instruments by constrained continuation
Numerical continuation using the Asymptotic Numerical Method (ANM), together with the Harmonic Balance Method (HBM), makes it possible to follow the periodic solutions of non-linear dynamical systems such as physical models of wind instruments.

Implications of partially degenerate neutrinos at a high scale in the light of KamLAND and WMAP [PDF]
Electroweak radiative corrections can generate the neutrino (mass)$^2$ difference required for the large mixing angle solution (LMA) to the solar neutrino problem if two of the neutrinos are assumed degenerate at high energy.

Probing long-range leptonic forces with solar and reactor neutrinos [PDF]
In this work we study the phenomenological consequences of the existence of long-range forces coupled to lepton flavour numbers in solar neutrino oscillations.

Regularization method for the radially symmetric inverse heat conduction problem
We consider an axisymmetric inverse problem for the heat equation inside the cylinder a ≤ r ≤ b $a\leq r\leq b$ . We wish to determine the surface temperature on the interior surface { r = a } $\{r=a\}$ from the Cauchy data on the exterior surface { r ...
