TL;DR: Tests of the relative fit of several alternative models supported a single latent EF construct, and measurement invariance testing revealed less proficient EF in children at higher sociodemographic risk relative to those at lower risk and no differences between boys and girls.

TL;DR: The sex difference in the QT interval is due to QT shortening in males after puberty rather than QT prolongation in women during reproductive years, and it indicates that the traditional concept of reverse sequence of ventricular repolarization is not universally valid in all myocardial regions.

TL;DR: Neither facilitation of PCI with reteplase plus abcximab nor facilitation with abciximab alone significantly improved the clinical outcomes, as compared with ab ciximabs given at the time of PCI, in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
Abstract: In this international, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, we randomly assigned patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction who presented 6 hours or less after the onset of symptoms to receive combination-facilitated PCI, abciximabfacilitated PCI, or primary PCI. All patients received unfractionated heparin or enoxaparin before PCI and a 12-hour infusion of abciximab after PCI. The primary end point was the composite of death from all causes, ventricular fibrillation occurring more than 48 hours after randomization, cardiogenic shock, and congestive heart failure during the first 90 days after randomization. Results A total of 2452 patients were randomly assigned to a treatment group. Significantly more patients had early ST-segment resolution with combination-facilitated PCI (43.9%) than with abciximab-facilitated PCI (33.1%) or primary PCI (31.0%; P = 0.01 and P = 0.003, respectively). The primary end point occurred in 9.8%, 10.5%, and 10.7% of the patients in the combination-facilitated PCI group, abciximab-facilitated PCI group, and primary-PCI group, respectively (P = 0.55); 90-day mortality rates were 5.2%, 5.5%, and 4.5%, respectively (P = 0.49). Conclusions Neither facilitation of PCI with reteplase plus abciximab nor facilitation with abciximab alone significantly improved the clinical outcomes, as compared with abciximab given at the time of PCI, in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provided a thorough economic analysis of the simplest bottleneck model of road congestion with peak-load demand, where a fixed number of identical individuals, one per car, must travel from home to work, between which is a bottleneck of given capacity.
