2). The key advantage of this type of image fusion is that it gives the surgeon real-time fully integrated 3D visualisation throughout the EVAR procedure with much greater spatial accuracy than achieved by previous technology [5]. The computer vision is a form of artificial intelligence using ...
This is a retrospective study extracting data from documentation in medical records and, therefore, is limited by the variations and inaccuracies attributable to human error. The sample is restricted to one month of the year and is much smaller than previous studies- which could exaggerate the ...
Admissions included in this study were elective and emergency admissions of all pediatric medical and pediatric surgical specialities. Observations were carried out on 17 wards, including oncology wards and the high dependency unit (HDU). Patients were not observed while admitted to the PICU, theater...
Pain during labour and childbirth represents a complex interaction of multiple physiological and psychological factors [1]. Techniques such as epidural analgesia, have been shown to be the most effective form of pain relief in labour[2] but, can deprive the mother of an optimal birth experience[...
In the case where there were no painful points, we chose the bilateral BL25. The practitioners had to have at least 3 years of clinical experience after the 6-year TKM education. Table 1 Clean Wet-Cupping Technique Full size table Participants were prohibited from using any medical treatment...

2a). Densitometry revealed no statistically significant difference in MMP-1 release in response to cytokines (P = 0.76). However, the ‘superactive’ cleaved form of MMP-1, represented by the lowest band (marked by arrowhead in Fig. 2a), was present only under inflammatory conditions, ...
The latter impairment is the most serious form of DNA damage [135]. A disfigured genome is the stimulus that initiates DNA damage response (DDR) processes [136,137]. These consist of a series of complex events that heal the DNA lesions. When the damage is highly deleterious, however, it ...
Introduction Rapidly releasing the stored energy into a load in the form of electrical pulses can generate large amounts of instantaneous power over a short period; this strategy is called pulse power [1]. The pulse power supply that delivers such pulse power is called pulse power supply, ...
The distinctive spherical form of proteins originates from the unusual three-dimensional structure of polypeptides. This structure imparts features of proteins. The building blocks of proteins are amino acids. Amino acid residues are joined to create peptide bonds, which are the fundamental units of ...
