Appropriateness of referrals for single-photon emission computed tomography myocardial perfusion imaging (SPECT-MPI) in a developing community: A comparison between 2005 and 2009 versions of ACCF/ASNC appropriateness criteria [PDF]
Appropriateness of referrals for myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) in developing countries has not been extensively studied. Our study was conducted to describe the ordering practices of physicians and appropriateness of MPI referrals in Iran.

Recent genetic connectivity and clinal variation in chimpanzees
Lester and colleagues use faecal samples and genetic analyses to investigate the genetic connectivity across chimpanzees. Their results indicate that the global pattern of genetic diversity in chimpanzees is largely characterized by a pattern of ...

Hybrid MPI-OpenMP versus MPI Implementations: A Case Study [PDF]
Hybrid MPI-OpenMP versus MPI Implementations: A Case Study We explored the performance of a hybrid MPI-OpenMP parallel implementation versus adirect MPI implementation in a 64-processor cluster architecture featuring 16 nodes with 4 coresper node. A scalability study was carried out where we varied the signal length for two differentsets of parallel ...

Impact of incomplete ventricular coverage on diagnostic performance of myocardial perfusion imaging. [PDF]
In the context of myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) with cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR), there is ongoing debate on the merits of using technically complex acquisition methods to achieve whole-heart spatial coverage, rather than conventional 3-slice ...

New Uniform Subregular Parallelisms of PG(3, 4) Invariant under an Automorphism of Order 2
A spread in PG(n, q) is a set of lines which partition the point set. A parallelism is a partition of the set of lines by spreads. A parallelism is uniform if all its spreads are isomorphic.
