Evaluation of Factors Affecting Perinatal Mortality in Patients with HELLP Syndrome by Reyhan Gunduz, Senem Yaman Tunc, Mehmet Sait Icen, Sabahattin Ertugrul, Talip Gul

“…Logistic regression revealed the APGAR score at 5 minutes as the most reliable independent predictive finding for perinatal mortality. CONCLUSION: We think that to decrease perinatal mortality rates, maternal and fetal well-being in patients with HELLP syndrome should be closely monitored and delivery and follow-up should take place at tertiary health institutions after maternal and neonatal intensive care arrangements are made. …”

Intensity of water consumption in separate water collection points of internal water supply system by D. E. Polivanov, A. A. Semenov

“…The applied calculation methods for predicting water consumption at the objects of capital construction, when designing them, are based on the assumption of the deterministic character of elementary expenses (that is, expenses by one consumer or a water collecting device), which significantly coarsens the calculation methods and makes it impossible to analyze in detail the modes of operation of the water supply system of the considered object. …”
