Counting index 4

Therapy, to be effective, depends upon administration of an adequate number of platelets, generally 5 X 10 in a 70 kg man or a 60 kg woman given over 15 minutes - with suitable adjustment for body surface area in children. It is mandatory that the increment is calculated and the duration of response be documented at 24 hours. The optimum practice is to relate the number infused to changes achieved in the patient by means of the corrected count index. This step anticipates the emergence of resistance that limits the value of repeated transfusions. Occasional allergic reactions have to be blocked by premedication with an intravenous injection 100 mg of hydrocortisone, 12.5 mg of phenergan and 1 g of paracetamol...

For a stationary homogeneous system, n is a constant given by N/V. (Note that n here is not a counting index.) P(2,(x 1 x2, t) represents the probability density for finding two particles at xt and x2 simultaneously. For a homogeneous system it depends on the difference xt — x2 rather than on xt and x2...

Here, the formula is just 2 raised to a power, the value of which is defined by each element of the domain. Notice that the use of r as a counting index is arbitrary any other appropriate letter (with the exception of u which we have used already) would do. A counting index such as r is often termed a dummy index.. An alternative way of generating this sequence is accomplished using a recurrence relation as the prescription, where each successive term is obtained from the previous term. For example, the sequence given in equation (1.8) can alternatively be expressed as ... 

We first met the summation notation X in Chapter 1 of Volume 1 in this e tample, the counting index, r, takes values from 1 to n. 

The idea of this shift is to bring the counting index for Y into the format of Yij) instead of Yij + N + 1). With this shift in j, Eqs. 12.260c and 12.260d then become...
