Concurrent cardiac sarcoidosis and obstructive sleep apnea presenting as arrhythmias
(2020)Background: Cardiac involvement is a rare and potentially fatal presentation of sarcoidosis. Obstructive sleep apnea may complicate sarcoidosis. Case presentation: We report a case of a sarcoidosis patient with cardiac ... -
Condition-Dependent Effects of Mating on Longevity and Fecundity of Female Medflies: The Interplay between Nutrition and Age of Mating
(2013)Background: In various species mating exerts direct and indirect effects on female demographic traits ranging from life span shortening to behavioural shifts. A wealth of data regarding effects of nutrition on longevity ... -
Conditional conservatism and value relevance of financial reporting: A study in view of converging accounting standards
(2016)This study examines the relationship between conditional conservatism and value relevance in the EU and US. Specifically, it investigates whether this relationship differs under US GAAP and IFRS compliance. In addition, ... -
A conditional directional distance function approach for measuring regional environmental efficiency: Evidence from UK regions
(2013)This paper, by using conditional directional distance functions as introduced by Simar and Vanhems [J. Econometrics 166 (2012) 342-354] modifies the model by Fare and Grosskopf [Eur. J. Operat. Res. 157 (2004) 242-245] and ... -
A conditional directional distance function approach for measuring tax collection efficiency: evidence from Spanish regional offices
(2021)This paper analyzes the evolution of the technical efficiency of Spanish regional tax offices with respect to the main devolved taxes for the period 2005–2014. We apply the conditional directional distance function ... -
A conditional nonparametric analysis for measuring the efficiency of regional public healthcare delivery: An application to Greek prefectures
(2011)Objectives: The purpose of this study is to measure the Greek public healthcare delivery efficiency from a regional perspective by applying conditional nonparametric models. Methods: The study reviews the existing literature ... -
Conditional symmetries and the canonical quantization of constrained minisuperspace actions: The Schwarzschild case
(2013)A conditional symmetry is defined, in the phase space of a quadratic in velocities constrained action, as a simultaneous. conformal symmetry of the supermetric and the superpotential. Iris proven that such a symmetry ... -
Conditional time-dependent nonparametric estimators with an application to healthcare production function
(2019)By using the probabilistic framework of production efficiency, the paper develops time-dependent conditional efficiency estimators performing a non-parametric frontier analysis. Specifically, by applying both full and ... -
Conditional Volatility Measures of Inflation Uncertainty: Evidence from the Greek Experience
(2000)This paper investigates the dynamics developed in the relationship between output and prices. It examines the case of Greece which is of particular interest since the Greek economy is currently characterized by surrounding ... -
Conductive heat transfer in a rarefied polyatomic gas confined between coaxial cylinders
(2014)The conductive heat transfer through rarefied gases composed by rigid rotators and confined between coaxially placed cylinders maintained at different temperatures is investigated on the basis of the Holway and Rykov kinetic ... -
Conductive heat transfer in rarefied binary gas mixtures confined between parallel plates based on kinetic modeling
(2018)The kinetic model introduced by Kosuge (2009) is implemented to solve heat transfer through rarefied binary gas mixtures confined between two parallel plates maintained at different temperatures. The results have been found ... -
Conductive heat transfer in rarefied polyatomic gases confined between parallel plates via various kinetic models and the DSMC method
(2015)The conductive heat transfer through rarefied polyatomic gases confined between parallel plates maintained at different temperatures is investigated. The approach is based on three kinetic models namely the Holway, Rykov ... -
Conductivity of Gd-doped BaCeO3 protonic conductor in H-2-H2O-O-2 atmospheres
(2014)In the present investigation, a radically new and simple method of evaluation of the proton conductivity is proposed. This method is based on the conductivity measurement of ceramic materials depending on the oxygen partial ... -
