This position is a proposal for the use of quantitative methods of assessing clinical medical outcomes to people suffering from respiratory disorders, which will complement the already used qualitative methods.In order for this thesis to drive the conclusions drawn and framing the proposals, we studied a representative group of patients treated with gradually increasing amount of methacholine. At each stage the corresponding spirometric curves flow-volume and volume-time curve were obtained, which were digitized in order to calculate the power of their spectrum.Data analysis was conducted in two stages. First the physiological behavior of the data were examined, conducting statistical control analysis of covariance for repeated measurements on subjects in order to examine the dependence of various parameters of tumors of exhaled air from the amount of the administered dose ofmethacholine.Also to determine whether there is a continuum of age on the dose groups of the audit an Analysis of unidirectional Variance was used. In the second phase a statistical examination of the data after their transformation with \"Signal Analysis\" methodologies of the spirometric curve took place and resulting diagrams showing the configuration of the coefficient of variation with respect to frequency and with respect to dose were obtained.The research results of the first phase showed that there is a very negative and statistically highly significant correlation between spirometric indices used (FEV1, FVC, FEV1%, F50%, F25%). This is expected and it preserves not only the statistical but normal representativeness of our sample. The results of the investigation in the second phase led us to estimate that:• as the dose is increased at the methacholine challenge, so the coefficient of variation for most of the frequencies tested is reduced.• specific frequencies in large doses \"stand out\" as to their conduct of the other frequencies in the sense that they still have a high coefficient of variation despite the fact that in the entire range the coefficient of variation decreases.• low and high frequencies are those that show the greatest decrease in the coefficient of variation with increasing dose of methacholine.Finally, it should be noted that the behavior of the spectra of spirometry for different, ever increasing doses of methacholine indicated the growing participation of resonance (i.e., the concentration of the spirometer signal energy at specific frequencies spaced apart against the intermediate frequencies) as the dose of methacholine increases.We believe that this, along with what is revealed by the analysis method we propose for the spirometric curve, indicating the possibility of further analysis of the spirogram with mathematics and informatics tools, in","PeriodicalId":35549,"journal":{"name":"National Interest","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"http://hdl.handle.net/10442/hedi/37857","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147886283","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was premised on the notion that the 1990s were a holiday from history, an illusory period during which we imagined that the existential struggles of the past six decades against the various totalitarianisms had ended for good. September 11 reminded us rudely that history had not ended, and we found ourselves in a new existential struggle, this time with an enemy even more fanatical, fatalistic and indeed undeterable than in the past. Nonetheless, we had one factor in our favor. With the passing of the Soviet Union, we had entered a unique period in human history, a unipolar era in which America enjoys a predominance of power greater than any that has existed in the half-millennium of the modern state system. The challenge of the new age is whether we can harness that unipolar power to confront the new challenge, or whether we rely, as we did for the first decade of the post-Cold War era, on the vague internationalism that characterizes the foreign policy thinking of European elites and American liberalism.","PeriodicalId":35549,"journal":{"name":"National Interest","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1017/CBO9780511509896.017","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"57053818","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
