Objectives We have previously reported our experience with noninvasive positive pressure
ventilation (NPPV) via face mask in a small group of selected patients with acute respiratory …

Objective In asthmatic patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF), placing an endotracheal
tube is associated with a high rate of complications and results in increased airway …

Offered 96 male and 96 female 23-84 hr old infants water and a solution of glucose, fructose,
lactose, or sucrose for 3-min periods. Volumes ingested were measured. Ss discriminated …

In anticipation of the first fully calibrated nighttime low-light measurements from the National
Polar-orbiting Operational Environmental Satellite System's Visible/Infrared Imager/…

Description of a radiative transfer model which has been used to correct Apollo photographic
imagery for degradation arising from atmospheric scattering. The model was tested using …

Results and analysis are presented for Be‐on‐Al disk target irradiations at 1.06 and 0.35 μm
laser wavelengths with 600–700 psec pulses, 240 μm spot diameter, and 1× 10 1 4 W/cm 2 …

Spectral measurements of the 3/2 harmonic emissions from 1.06 ..mu..m irradiated disk
targets, and the 1/2 harmonic emissions from 0.53 ..mu..m irradiations, are presented. The …

The report is broadly divided into the categories of scattering and absorption, with the greater
stress laid on absorption. The first of these is the so-called line-by-line direct integration …

The low-lying two-photon states of trans-butadiene are investigated using thermal lensing
and multiphoton ionization techniques. For the first time, the termal lensing method is applied …

The results of a wind tunnel test program performed to investigate the response parameters
of two types of cup anemometers (Climet models 014–5 and 014–102), two types of wind …
