The left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) test rate is increasingly used as a quality of care indicator for pa-. tients with heart failure. Our study produced benchmark LVEF test rates in a Medicare fee-for-service.

Toluene can be used as an octane booster in gasoline fuels used in internal combustion engines. Toluene at 86% by volume fueled all the turbo Formula 1 teams in the 1980s, first pioneered by the Honda team. The remaining 14% was a filler of n-heptane, to reduce the octane to meet Formula 1 fuel restrictions.
