Burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is a chronic pain disorder the etiology of which has remained unclear. Symptoms associated with BMS vary and may have a negative impact on oral health-related quality of life in patients with BMS (1). McMillan et al. (2) reported that, so far, no therapy has been proven to be effective or ineffective in patients with BMS. To date, there is no clear evidence that the...

BACKGROUND Brain metastases (BMs) from colorectal cancer are rare (2-3%). They usually occur in advanced stages of the disease and their prognosis is poor. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of surgical resection of BMs from colorectal cancer in terms of overall survival. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective bi-centric study included all patients with resected BMs from primary col...

But nowthere are many weaknesses in special cars Indonesia. One them charging that canbe said be ineffective. When the this consists 4 12V batteries, which areequipped with 48V process. type used Battery Sealed Lead Acid wherethe s...

Bridge management systems have become increasingly sophisticated over the past decade and provide valuable information about the structural condition of all bridges in the national database. At the same time, reliability methods have gained increasing prominence and are used to forecast life-cycle performance over many decades of structural life. Such reliability analyses need to be updated bas...

The railroad network carries 40 % of the freight in the US. Railroad bridges are the most critical part of the network and they need to be properly maintained for safety of operations. Railroad managers inspect the bridges to assess their structural condition. Railroad managers are interested in measuring displacements under train crossing events to prioritize their bridge management and safety...

A critical element of a hybrid-electric-vehicle (HEV) propulsion system is the battery management system (BMS), which controls the performance of the HEV battery, the costliest and heaviest component of the propulsion system. This paper examines the relevance and criticality of an HEV BMS as a whole; that is, its general functions and “responsibilities”. Of these, its ability to accurately esti...

The online battery management system (BMS) is very critical for the safe and reliable operation of electric vehicles (EVs) renewable energy storage applications. primary responsibility BMS data assembly, state monitoring, management, safety, charging control, thermal information management. algorithm control development smooth cost-effective functioning challenging research. complexity, stabili...

Burning mouth syndrome (BMS) can be a frustrating condition to the patient and the practitioner because the patient often experiences a continuous burning pain in the mouth without any apparent clinical signs, but the practitioner is unable to definitively diagnose symptoms even with the use of diagnostic testing or imaging. To overcome this dilemma, it is important for the practitioner to reco...

This paper presents a computer aided bridge management system (CADBMS) and its implementation in the context of Papua New Guinea. The expert system includes a bridge management information system database (BMISD) and knowledge based database (KBD) logically linking all bridge parameters to the repair, maintenance and rehabilitation (RMR) options. The KBD is written in Micro-soft Excel with its ...
