BACKGROUND Given the importance of timing of denudation and oocyte injection during assisted reproductive technology cycles, a study was undertaken of the impact of timing on the outcome of intracytoplasmic sperm injection in a cohort of patients from a private in vitro fertilization center. METHODS The study included patients who underwent fresh intracytoplasmic sperm injection-embryo transf...

Objectives. To analyze the impact of oocyte denudation and microinjection timings on intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) outcomes. Study Design. We included ICSI cycles with the following parameters: rank 1 or 2, female age <36 years, male factor infertility, long protocol using GnRH agonist and rFSH for ovarian stimulation, and use of freshly ejaculated sperm (n = 110). Several ICSI parame...

■ EVIDENCE-BASED ANSWER Subacromial steroid injection may provide a small, short-term benefit compared with placebo. The short-term effectiveness of steroid injection compared with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents (NSAIDs) remains unclear. Steroid injections are better than physiotherapy alone in the short term. However, injection does not appear to provide any meaningful longterm benefit ...

AbstractStringent emission norms and environment degradation due to pollutants from the automotive vehicles lead us to find the suitable alternative for the petro-diesel. The oxygenated fuel used is dibutyl ether(DBE). While injection pressure is 200 bar and injection timing is 20.5 0 BTDC we get higher brake thermal efficiency and lower brake specific fuel consumption for DBE10 compare to diesel.

One pollutant which seriously threatens water resources is dye. Therefore, finding a suitable method to separate the dye in water resources is very important. An adsorption process that uses low cost adsorbents is considered as an efficient strategy for this purpose. In this study, Erythrosine dye removal from an aquatic environment using natural absorbents, namely Sorghum and Ziziphus nummular...

Methanol as a biofuel is an environmentally friendly substitute for pure diesel and can be obtained from biomasses. The use of biofuels such as methanol for the combustion process is associated with positive impacts on the environment. Using pure methanol or a blend of diesel/methanol fuel in motorized vehicles has been proposed by researchers. In this paper, pure methanol was injected into the...

The reduction of pollutant emissions from internal combustion engines, and in particular greenhouse gases, must be achieved by optimizing the process choosing fuels with a low carbon impact. Heterogeneous mixture combustions such as Diesel induce difficulty managing pollutants formation even if its principle output efficiency remains favorable. Therefore, it is necessary to distinguish this las...
