Infusion Pumps (IP) are medical devices that were developed in the 1960s and generate fluid flow at pressures higher than that of normal blood pressure. Various hospital sectors make use of them, and they have become indispensable in therapies requiring continuity and precision in the administratio...
Additionally, it has been found that the water fraction of substance P (SP) is elevated in the cerebrospinal fluid of FD/MAS patients [63]. Substance P is a mediator of pain, is involved in pain production and transmission signaling, and can also exhibit anti-injury-sensing properties....

The finding that upper limb movements in HCP were significantly smoother than those of IHP during iVR tests is consistent with prior research indicating that HCP tend to exhibit more fluid movements in virtual environments [56, 57]. This aligns with the general understanding that motor deficits in...
It was concluded that the extension distance of the tumor above the sella in the sagittal position was ≥ 15.6 mm, the tumor texture was hard, and the postoperative cerebrospinal fluid leakage were the independent risk factors for intracranial infection after EETA resection of suprasellar ...
Occupational exposures may be associated with reproductive health and pregnancy outcomes. This study investigated the association between occupational exposures and reproductive health, pregnancy outcomes, and the lactation period among hospital staff. S
In patients with hepatic cirrhosis and ascites, sudden alterations of fluid and electrolyte balance may precipitate hepatic encephalopathy and coma. Treatment in such patients is best initiated in the hospital. Furosemide can cause dehydration and...
using the Lipofectamine 2000 kit (Invitrogen) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The transfecting fluid was replaced with DMEM medium supplemented with 10% FBS after 10–12 h incubation. After another 48 h, the recombinant lentivirus was filtered with 0.22 μm membrane (Merck Millipore...
Pregnant women attending their first routine antenatal care at the Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Minhang district in Shanghai were consecutively recruited if: 1) they were at 12–16 gestational weeks (GW) of pregnancy; 2) they were registered residents of Shanghai; 3) they had no ...
partitions and can also be generated and manipulated on an array of electrodes, which is based on digital microfluidics (DMF). Electrowetting on dielectric is one of the most intensively studied theories in DMF because electrowetting on dielectric is able to control over fluid shape and flow ...
