Background and Purpose: Left bundle branch block (LBBB) is a communal electrocardiographic (ECG) finding that may or may not be associated with overt heart disease at diagnosis. The current study was performed to determine the clinical picture and structural abnormalities of the heart diagnosed by transthoracic echocardiography in patients with left bundle branch block. Methods: This cross-sectional observational study was conducted over a six-month period in the Interventional Cardiology Unit Liaquat University Hospital Hyderabad from July 2021 to December 2021.

Abstract:

This article hypothesizes that at least part of the reason minority youth are overrepresented in the criminal justice system is that they see few prospects for future economic success in comparison to Whites. Blacks are over three times as likely to be poor as Whites; their median income is only half that of Whites; their net worth (defined as total assets owned minus any liabilities) is only one-twelfth that of Whites; and Black men are twice as likely to be jobless as White men. Without radical changes in the use-service system, we should not be surprised if minority youths continue to remai

Abstract:

Abstract This article aims to analyze how the reality of criminalized abortion reinforces inequalities of gender, race/ethnicity, and class, which are co-produced within the context of sexage, understood here as the appropriation of women by men, reducing them to the status of thing. The bibliographic and documentary research was carried out, from the perspective of materialistic, historical and dialectical analysis. The main conclusion is that criminalization reinforces the logic of social inequalities in Brazil and the world. This is because poor and black women are the most affected, those

Abstract:

There is continuing debate over whether and to what degree estimations of black-white wage convergence are biased because they leave labor market dropouts out of the picture. If a high proportion of blacks become discouraged and cease searching for jobs, and if those dropouts have, on average, poor job prospects, the average wage of black workers who remain in the labor market will be an upwardly biased estimate of the average wage across the population. This paper introduces a simple method of imputing wages to non-workers. When non-workers are accounted for in the calculations, real wage gro

Using tunneling concepts which account for particle production in the cases of an accelerated detector and a static electric Field in Minkowski space, the more elusive case of black hole evaporation is analyzed in terms of a detailed tunneling mechanism. For the case of the incipient black hole (collapsing star) Hawking’s “heuristic” picture in terms of pair creation, wherein one member crosses the horizon to fall into the singularity as the other is emitted to infinity, is established. The inception of tunneling is due to the motion of the star’s surface, but its completion concerns traversal

During the 1980s, media images of white boomer nostalgia were often accompanied by 1960s Motown songs due to the popularity of the hit film The Big Chill as well as advertising and licensing strategies inspired by it.

This article explores how 1960s Motown songs came to be employed in two motion pictures—Nothing But a Man and Cooley High—to represent particular notions of everyday Black life, and then provides an industrial backd

By describing these women as expertly navigating the city, the West, and professional ambitions simultaneously, this publicity created a booster literature that depi

In 1971, economist Barbara Bergmann developed the “occupational crowding model,” which posited that black men are “crowded into” low-wage occupations and “crowded out” of high-wage occupations due to employer discrimination. In quantitative analyses I have conducted for the years 2010 through 2011, the results have yielded a different picture from what Bergmann’s model predicts: although African American men are underrepresented in high-wage occupations, consistent with her model, this group does not appear to be overrepresented in low-wage occupational categories when the level of analysis is

Abstract:

The disciplines of gymnastics have been an important part of entrance examination at the university with the physical orientation already for many years. It is also the same case at the faculty of physical studies at Masaryk University in Brno. Because there is a need to give a true picture of the level of motoric abilities and certain motion presumptions which are needed for studies of practical subjects with using gymnastics, there is more and more need to find the best choice of gymnastics equipment and also its content. It is also because of economical reasons. This was the reason why ther

Abstract Background: Prostate cancer (CaP) is a global disease with the greatest burden among Black men, including sub-Saharan African men. The International Registry to Improve Outcomes in Men with Advanced Prostate Cancer (IRONMAN) was established by the Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials Consortium (PCCTC) as a prospective, international cohort of men with advanced cancer. The goal of the study is to establish a population-based CaP registry and recruit patients across academic and community practices globally. The Prostate Cancer Transatlantic Consortium (CaPTC) joined the IRONMAN project in

Abstract:

In this Critical Review Essay, Professor Obiora brings together work from many traditions to address the issue of how differences among students beyond gender–and, in particular, differences in terms of race–might affect legal education. After situating the question in terms of the literature on legal education generally (including standard critiques), she delves into work on gender–in law generally, in kgal education, in moral development and learning, in language use, and in education generally–to elucidate hypothesized differences between men and women that might affect differential experie

Abstract:

In 167 BCE, L. Aemilius Paullus celebrated a triumph in Rome following the defeat of King Perseus of Macedon at the Battle of Pydna in the previous year. All of the accounts of the procession enumerate the incredible volume of booty that was paraded into Rome—wagons loaded with shields, weapons, statues of gods and men, golden bowls, livestock, luxury goods. Perseus himself, the defeated king, marched in this procession, as did his two sons and a daughter. Plutarch writes that ‘the children of Perseus were led along as slaves’: τὰ τέκνα τοῦ βασιλέως ἤγετο δοῦλα (Aem. 33.6), and that they were

Abstract:

Everyday experience with centrifugal forces has always guided thinking on the close relationship between gravitational forces and accelerated systems of reference. Once spatial gravitational forces and accelerations are introduced into general relativity through a splitting of spacetime into space-plus-time associated with a family of test observers, one may further split the local rest space of those observers with respect to the direction of relative motion of a test particle world line in order to define longitudinal and transverse accelerations as well.

Abstract:

Background/Context Teacher retention, especially of qualified teachers within high-poverty schools, is an issue of local, national, and international concern. School staffing research has typically examined two groups: those who remain in full-time classroom teaching versus those who quit teaching altogether. This article complicates the teacher staffing picture and adds a third category of attrition: role changing, which is the phenomenon of teachers shifting into nonteaching professional roles in the field of education.

Abstract:

We exhibit an explicit foliation of Schwarzschild space–time by spacelike hypersurfaces which extend from Schwarzschild r=0 to r=∞. This allows us to compute the values of a massless scalar field for all space–time points which lie in the future of the surface on which we initially quantize the theory. This is to be contrasted with approaches which start at past null infinity and propagate to future null infinity. One of its virtues is that this method allows us to discuss both asymptotic Hawking radiation and what is happening at finite distances from the black hole. In order to explain the t

Imagine a scene sometime in the 1750s in the depths of west Wales. This was wild country. Even a century later, George Borrow called it a ‘mountainous wilderness … a waste of russet-coloured hills, with here and there a black craggy summit’. Through this desolation rides the Reverend William Williams. As he rode, he read – and the book in his saddlebags on this occasion was William Derham's Astro-Theology, first published some twenty years earlier. Williams was a leading figure in the Methodist revolution that had been sweeping through Wales for the past two decades. Disenchanted with an Angli
