If one assumes that Williams and Cohen (2009) were correct in saying that only 8% of those with greater trochanteric pain have trochanteric bursitis, and that the studies listed above included the other greater trochanteric pain syndromes, it could be assume that the incidence of trochanteric bursitis as a lone condition may be 0.114-0.448 per 1000 people.

Fiber optic communication systems are light wave systems that employ optical fibers for transmitting information from one point to other through an optical fiber. The driving force behind the widespread use of fiber optic communications is the demand for economic, reliable transmission media that can transmit required information capacity. The transmission capacity of optical fibers has drastically improved over the years. Today, optical communications up to 100 gb/s for several kilometers have…
