CASEREPORT A 53-year-old female presented with sudden onset of pallor and decreased sensation of the right hand and forearm, without loss of power. She had rheumatoid arthritis for the last 30 years, and had been using axillary crutches for the last 10 years. She had undergone bilateral knee and left hip replacements. There were no other significant cardiovascular risk factors, nor any previous...
متن کاملAn Improved WAGNER-WHITIN Algorithm
We present an improved implementation of the Wagner-Whitin algorithm for economic lot-sizing problems based on the planning-horizon theorem and the Economic- Part-Period concept. The proposed method of this paper reduces the burden of the computations significantly in two different cases. We first assume there is no backlogging and inventory holding and set-up costs are fixed. The second model ...
متن کاملThe design of a compliant composite crutch.
Ambulation by crutches takes up to twice the energy of normal gait and can lead to injuries of the hands and arms. The compliant composite forearm crutch described in this article seeks to address these problems. The new crutch is made of a single composite piece and has an S-curve in the main body to provide shock absorption and return of energy with the goal of reducing impact and repetitive ...
متن کاملAn Improved Algorithm for Network Reliability Evaluation
Binary Decision Diagram (BDD) is a data structure proved to be compact in representation and efficient in manipulation of Boolean formulas. Using Binary decision diagram in network reliability analysis has already been investigated by some researchers. In this paper we show how an exact algorithm for network reliability can be improved and implemented efficiently by using CUDD - Colorado Univer...
متن کاملCrutch-induced bilateral brachial artery aneurysms.
A 57-year-old man, who was a chronic axillary crutch user as a result of childhood poliomyelitis, was referred to our hospital because of a sudden onset of right forearm ischemia. The right forearm had no pulse, and three-dimensional computed tomography (3DCT) showed an aneurysm of the right brachial artery associated with arterial occlusion. The thrombosed aneurysm of the brachial artery was r...
