Trefoil Surgery

چکیده
This is an expository account of a theorem of Louise Moser that describes the types of manifolds that can be constructed via Dehn surgery along a trefoil in the 3-sphere. These include lens spaces, connected sums of two lens spaces, and certain Seifert fibered spaces with three exceptional fibers. Various concepts from the topological theory of three dimensional manifolds are developed as needed.

Intraindividual comparative study of corneal and ocular wavefront aberrations after biaxial microincision versus coaxial small-incision cataract surgery.
AIM To compare the optical outcomes of biaxial microincision cataract surgery (B-MICS) versus coaxial small-incision cataract surgery (C-SICS). METHODS Thirty patients (sixty eyes) with bilateral age-related cataract underwent B-MICS through a 1.7 mm clear corneal incision (CCI) in one eye and C-SICS through a 2.8-mm CCI in the other eye. Every eye was implanted with a micro-incision aspheric...
متن کاملThe trefoil configuration of the lumbar vertebral canal. A study of South African skeletal material.
The shallow lateral recesses of the trefoil shape of the lumbar spinal canal have been implicated in the production of the spinal stenosis syndrome. In the present study, 485 skeletons of South African Blacks and Whites were examined in order to establish the incidence and possible genesis of the trefoil configuration. The overall incidence was 14 per cent, with little variation between the sex...
متن کاملThe Dehn Surgery Characterization of the Trefoil and the Figure Eight Knot
We give a Dehn surgery characterization of the trefoil and the figure eight knots. These results are gotten by combining surgery formulas in Heegaard Floer homology from an earlier paper with the characterization of these knots in terms of their knot Floer homology given in a recent paper of Ghiggini.
متن کاملComparison of corneal aberrations after biaxial microincision and microcoaxial cataract surgeries: a prospective study.
PURPOSE To compare the effects of biaxial microincision cataract surgery (B-MICS) and microcoaxial cataract surgery (C-MICS) techniques on corneal optical quality. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this prospective study, 40 eyes underwent B-MICS and 40 eyes C-MICS. Corneal aberrations were derived from conversion of the corneal elevation profile into corneal wavefront data with 6.0 mm aperture diame...
متن کاملHydrogen sulfide upregulated mRNA expressions of sodium bicarbonate cotransporter1, trefoil factor1 and trefoil factor2 in gastric mucosa in rats
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has been shown to protect the gastric mucosa through several protective mechanisms but till now its effect on mRNA expression of sodium bicarbonate cotransporter 1 (NBC1), trefoil factor1 (TFF1) and trefoil factor2 (TFF2) was not investigated. This study was aimed to evaluate the effect of H2S on mRNA expression of NBC1, TFF1 and TFF2 in rat gastric ...
