Local anaesthesia for pain control during outpatient hysteroscopy: systematic review and meta-analysis
Objective To compare the effects of different types of local anaesthetic for pain control during outpatient hysteroscopy
Grape plant named `Opportunity`
Description and specifications of a new and distinct wine grape cultivar which originated from a hand-pollinated cross of `Cayuga White` (Vitis labrusca L. by V. vinifera L., developed by the New York State Agricultural Experiment Station, Geneva, N.Y.; female parent, non-patented) x A-1754 (non-patented, non-released breeding genotype; male parent). This new wine grape cultivar can be distinguished by its quality juice attributes for wine production with hardy and productive grapevines adapted to Arkansas and the Mid-South of the United States
Grape Plant Named ‘Dazzle’
Description and specifications of a new and distinct cultivar of grapevine which originated from a hand-pollinated cross of ‘Gewürztraminer’ (female parent) x ‘Melody’ (male parent) made in 1991. The seedlings fruited in the summer of 1992 in a vineyard near Clarksville, Ark. and one was selected for its potential as a wine grape for utilization in the Mid-South of the United States. The original vine was tested as ‘Ark. 2574’. The new cultivar of grapevine is intended for wine production and provides advancements in cold hardiness
Grape Plant Named ‘Indulgence’
Description and specifications of a new and distinct cultivar of wine grapevine which originated from a hand-pollinated cross of ‘Seyval Blanc’ (female parent) and ‘Muscat Ottonel’ (male parent) made in 1988. The seedlings fruited in the summer of 1992 in a vineyard near Clarksville, Ark. and one was selected for its potential as a wine grape for utilization in the Mid-South. The original vine was tested as ‘Ark. 2359’. The new cultivar of grapevine is a white wine grape which is adapted to the Mid-South of the United States with good winter hardiness and distinct muscat flavor
Grape plant named `Enchantment`
Description and specifications of a new and distinct wine grape cultivar which originated from a hand-pollinated cross of Ark. 1628 (non-patented, non-released breeding genotype; female parent) x Ark. 1481 (non-patented, non-released breeding genotype; male parent). This new wine grape cultivar can be distinguished by its quality juice attributes for wine production with hardy and productive grapevines adapted Arkansas and the Mid-South of the United States
Effect of paper quality on the response rate to a postal survey: A randomised controlled trial. [ISRCTN32032031]
BACKGROUND: Response rates to surveys are declining and this threatens the validity and generalisability of their findings. We wanted to determine whether paper quality influences the response rate to postal surveys METHODS: A postal questionnaire was sent to all members of the British Society of Gynaecological Endoscopy (BSGE). Recipients were randomised to receiving the questionnaire printed on standard quality paper or high quality paper. RESULTS: The response rate for the recipients of high quality paper was 43/195 (22%) and 57/194 (29%) for standard quality paper (relative rate of response 0.75, 95% CI 0.33–1.05, p = 0.1 CONCLUSION: The use of high quality paper did not increase response rates to a questionnaire survey of gynaecologists affiliated to an endoscopic society
The vacuum structure in a supersymmetric gauged Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model
The dynamical breakdown of the symmetry triggered by a
top-antitop condensate is studied in a supersymmetric version of the gauged
Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. An effective potential approach is used to
investigate the vacuum structure and the equivalence with the minimal
supersymmetric standard model. The role of the soft supersymmetry breaking
terms is analyzed in detail in a version of the model where the electroweak
gauge interactions are turned off.Comment: 32 pages (+2 figures not included), Latex, LPTHE 93/0
