Impact of cardiac factors on central airway anatomical parameters in patients undergoing lung mass surgery by Yingding Ruan, Hongsheng Xue, Wenjun Cao, Jianwei Han, Aiming Yang, Jincheng Xu, Ting Zhang

“…Notably, age, as an important factor in airway development, was found to have significant associations with tracheal characteristics along with height in males, while tracheal features exhibited a particularly strong relationship with height in females. Furthermore, the study identified associations between right bronchial diameter (RBD) in males and subcarinal angle (SCA) in females with left atrial size, although these findings require further validation in larger and more diverse populations.…”

Contract Management and Health Service Delivery in Uganda: A Case Study of Kabale Regional Referral Hospital, Kabale Municipality. by Atwesigire, Banard

“…A P-value of 0.000 (below the 0.05 level of significance) and a correlation coefficient of 0.793** for objective three's findings on health service delivery, respectively, indicate that there is a strong positive relationship between the two. In a bid to reduce the rising cost of public administration and to remove any discrepancies or overlaps between hospitals and LGs, the study recommended that the Ministry of Health fully administratively decentralizes contract supervision activities to trusted administrators as a matter of policy. …”
