No full textGeorges Dimitrov et le Front unique
No full textThe article sets out to identify the origins of the "United Front" as a concept, tracing them by a thorough analysis of the political career of the prominent controversial communist leader George Dimitrov. It then looks into the evolution of its "real" meaning, as influenced both by the historical circumstances and by the appropriation of this term by various actors in power. Consequently, the author redefines the political tactics that have been employed by the United Front throughout the history of the international labour movement, and in particular its contribution to the strategic idea of a "worldwide revolution" during the 20th century

Probabilistic analysis of compression system stability using importance sampling
No full textThesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Aeronautics and Astronautics, 2005.This electronic version was submitted by the student author. The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.Includes bibliographical references (p. 87-89).The probability of instability is computed via a new approach based on Importance Sampling and a dynamic compression system model. In contrast to ordinary Monte Carlo methods Importance Sampling offers reduced confidence intervals, reduced number of samples and reduced model execution times. The new approach avoids some of the problematic details associated with the traditional stability margin methodology including the additivity, linearity and normality assumptions. It also captures successfully the phase interaction effects between inlet distortion and stationary asymmetric tip clearance. The phase interaction is an example of a case when the stability margin approach fails to capture both the quantitative and qualitative behaviors.y Nayden Dimitrov Kambouchev.S.M
Injection of botulinum toxin for treatment of chronic lateral epicondylitis: systematic review and meta-analysis
No full textObjectives: lateral epicondylitis can be chronic and difficult to manage with conservative measures such as physical therapy and corticosteroid injection. We attempted to determine the efficacy of botulinumtoxin for the treatment of chroniclateral epicondylitis.Methods: we searched PubMed, MEDLINE, CINAHL, Google Scholar, EMBASE, PEDro, and ISI web of Science databases from inception until November 2009. Studies were included if they used any formulation of botulinumtoxin A for treatment of chroniclateral epicondylitis and reported at least 1 pain outcome. One author extracted the relevant data using a standardized data extraction sheet and a second author checked the data. We performed a meta-analysis by computing effect sizes for each study separately for pain and grip strength at 3 months after injection. Impact of bias was assessed independently by 2 authors.Results: the search found 10 studies relevant to the question. Four of these were randomized controlled trials that could be pooled in a meta-analysis. Results showed a moderate effect for pain favoring botulinumtoxin (effect size ?0.5, 95% CI ?0.9, ?0.1, I2 = 56%) at 3 months and a no effect for grip strength. Qualitative analysis of the studies that could not be pooled also showed improvement in pain, but was limited by potential bias.Conclusions: present literature provides support for use of botulinumtoxin A injections into the forearm extensor muscles (60 units) for treatment of chronictreatment-resistant lateral epicondylitis. It is minimally invasive and can be performed in an outpatient settin
