Effects of age and gender on upper airway, lower airway and upper lip growth.
The aim of the present retrospective study was to evaluate the influence of age and gender on upper and lower airway width and upper lip length. In this study, 390 lateral cephalograms were divided into 13 age groups (ranging from 6 to 18 years) and were analyzed. The intergroup differences were analyzed using a MANOVA (Multivariate Analysis of the Variance), and the intragroup differences were...
متن کاملKernelization: New Upper and Lower Bound Techniques
In this survey, we look at kernelization: algorithms that transform in polynomial time an input to a problem to an equivalent input, whose size is bounded by a function of a parameter. Several results of recent research on kernelization are mentioned. This survey looks at some recent results where a general technique shows the existence of kernelization algorithms for large classes of problems,...
متن کاملLower and Upper Bounds for the Master Bay Planning Problem
In this work we tackle the problem of the stowage of containers on a ship, the so-called Master Bay Planning Problem (MBPP). This is an important hard combinatorial optimization problem in the context of maritime port logistics which has proven to be really difficult to solve. We propose two new lower bounds and two new upper bounds which are useful to solve it. In order to test both the effici...
متن کاملRole of upper airway ultrasound in airway management
Upper airway ultrasound is a valuable, non-invasive, simple, and portable point of care ultrasound (POCUS) for evaluation of airway management even in anatomy distorted by pathology or trauma. Ultrasound enables us to identify important sonoanatomy of the upper airway such as thyroid cartilage, epiglottis, cricoid cartilage, cricothyroid membrane, tracheal cartilages, and esophagus. Understandi...
متن کاملComments to Role of upper airway ultrasound in airway management
Tracheal ultrasound can be an alternative diagnostic tool in airway management, besides traditional confirmatory methods such as capnography and auscultation. The standard image is a hyperechoic air-mucosa (A-M) interface with a reverberation artifact posteriorly (comet-tail artifact). If the second A-M interface appears, which we call a "double-tract sign," esophageal intubation is considered.
