The human and financial costs of lower-extremity amputation in patients with diabetes
mellitus are well recognized 1 . However, the rates of major amputation in the United States …

Lower extremity ulcers represent a major concern for patients with diabetes and for those
who treat them, from both a quality of life and an economic standpoint. Studies to evaluate …

It is shown that the close connection between event horizons and thermodynamics which
has been found in the case of black holes can be extended to cosmological models with a …

One can evaluate the action for a gravitational field on a section of the complexified spacetime
which avoids the singularities. In this manner we obtain finite, purely imaginary values for …

We present some new solutions of the equations of the N=4 supergravity theory which represent
black holes with scalar, electric and magnetic charges. The solutions are parameterized …

Born-Infeld theory admits finite energy point particle solutions with δ-function sources, Blons.
I discuss their role in the theory of Dirichlet p-branes as the ends of strings intersecting the …

We consider scale invariant theories which couple gravity to Maxwell fields and antisymmetric
tensor fields with a dilaton field. We exhibit in a unified way solutions representing black …

We classify the action of one parameter isometry groups of Gravitational Instantons, complete
non singular positive definite solutions of the Einstein equations with or without Λ term. The …

The Euclidean action for gravity is not positive definite unlike those of scalar and Yang-Mills
fields. Indefiniteness arises because conformal transformations can make the action …

The course of treatment of the infected diabetic foot depends on its severity. Not infrequently
the complications of hyperglycemia, odor, or circulatory collapse bring the patient to the …
