A practical method to estimate the benefits of improved road network reliability: an application to departing air passengers.

This paper develops and applies a practical method to estimate the benefits of improved reliability of road networks. We present a general methodology to estimate the scheduling costs due to travel time variability for car travel. In contrast to existing practical methods, we explicitly consider the effect of travel time variability on departure time choices.

Congenital microgastria: a case report and review of literature.

Congenital microgastria is an uncommon result of impairment of normal foregut development. To date, only 39 cases have been described in the literature. We report a boy born with microgastria and bilateral hypoplastic kidneys who had feeding problems, resulting in failure to thrive and growth retardation.
