CABG is the preferred treatment with other high-risk patients such as those with severe ventricular dysfunction ( i. e. low ejection fraction ), or diabetes mellitus.

A domestic power supply voltage ( 110 or 230 V ), 50 or 60 Hz alternating current ( AC ) through the chest for a fraction of a second may induce ventricular fibrillation at currents as low as 60 mA.

Gas in the central part of the nebula, with relatively low angular momentum, undergoes fast compression and forms a hot hydrostatic ( not contracting ) core containing a small fraction of the mass of the original nebula.

Soft X-ray transients ( SXT ) are composed of some type of compact object and some type of " normal ", low mass star ( i. e. a star with a mass of some fraction of the Sun's mass ).

More often than not, the troposphere will reflect the light, and leave out the sound-in these cases some fraction of the light emanating from distant thunderstorms ( whose distant clouds may be so low to the horizon as to be essentially invisible ) is scattered by the upper atmosphere and thus visible to remote observers.

As a general rule, the blast fraction is higher for low yield weapons.

It can also assess the ability of the gall bladder to expel bile ( gall bladder ejection fraction ), and low gall bladder ejection fraction has been linked to chronic cholecystitis.

When applied to a rocket as a whole, a low mass fraction is desirable, since it indicates a greater capability for the rocket to deliver payload to orbit for a given amount of fuel.

Therefore, low levels of carbon dioxide can cause tetany by altering the albumin binding of calcium such that the ionised ( physiologically influencing ) fraction of calcium is reduced.

Under this condition, the molecules accumulate in both the ER and a subcellular vesicle fraction of low density called the lipid-rich vesicle fraction.

This equation is applicable for suspensions having a low volume fraction of particles.

Others are confined to vast reservations, and not only does the Australian government justifiably not wish them to be viewed as exhibits in a zoo, but on their reservations they are extremely fugitive, shunning camps, coming together only for corroborees at which their strange culture comes to its highest pitch -- which is very low indeed.

Such a comparison reminds us that in employing low characters in his works Faulkner is recording actuality in the South and moreover is following a long-established literary precedent.

What is more, the legends have become so sacrosanct that the very habit of self-examination or self-criticism smells of low treason, and men who practice it are defeatists and unpatriotic scoundrels.
