Technique for Construction of a Functioning Artificial Bladder
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Having been very much impressed by the results obtained with use of a segment of the sigmoid colon as a partial substitute for the urinary bladder (colo-cystoplasty), we decided to perform total substitution of the cancerous bladder with an isolated segment of the sigmoid colon anastomosed to the urethra, thus obtaining a functional artificial bladder from which the patient would void through this natural outlet and also be spared the severe complications frequently observed after ureterosigmoidostomy without diversion of the fecal stream.

Engineering Application Of Correlation on Ann Estimated Mass
A functional relationship between two variables, applied mass to a weighing platform and estimated mass using Multi-Layer Perceptron Artificial Neural Networks is approximated by a linear function. Linear relationships and correlation rates are obtained which quantitatively verify that the Artificial Neural Network model is functioning satisfactorily. Estimated mass is achieved through recallin...
