OBJECTIVE To report long-term objectives and subjective outcomes in women who underwent prolapse surgery with a synthetic graft augmentation. DESIGN Retrospective analysis (Canadian Task Force classification II-3). SETTING University hospital in the southeastern United States. PATIENTS Women with symptomatic pelvic organ prolapse who underwent transvaginal graft augmentation using the Pro...

in this paper, a parameter uniform numerical method based on shishkin mesh is suggested to solve a system of second order singularly perturbed differential equations with a turning point exhibiting boundary layers. it is assumed that both equations have a turning point at the same point. an appropriate piecewise uniform mesh is considered and a classical finite difference scheme is applied on t...

Background: Breast cancer is still a major contributing factor to the burden of disease worldwide. A single-stage implant-based reconstruction (IBR) lowers tissue morbidity, thus increasing overall aesthetic outcome and patient satisfaction. Objectives: Because high price ADM lack insurance coverage in Iran, we aimed at examining results using TIGR® mesh patients with breast cancer. Methods: Th...

We present a preliminary method to generate polyhedral meshes of general non-manifold domains. The method is based on computing the dual of a general tetrahedral mesh. The resulting mesh respects the topology of the domain to the same extent as the input mesh. If the input tetrahedral mesh is Delaunay and well-centered, the resulting mesh is a Voronoi mesh with planar faces. For general tetrahe...

Three mesh sizes of multiflament trammel nets (22 mm, 24 mm, and 26 mm) were used in Finike bay for red mullet (Mullus barbatus L., 1758). The sampling program was arranged during February to May 2012. Holt (1963) method was used for selectivity of trammel nets. Red mullet was the dominant species in 22 mm mesh size at 52.86%, followed by 25.7% with the 24 mm net and 21.43% with the 26 mm net. ...

Methods to improve bearing capacity of footing resting of collapsing soil can, in fact, take two approaches, improving soil strength properties and intrusion of reinforcing sorces into soil. The footing is modeled by a square steel plate 0.1 by 0.1 m. The footing is loaded as to have a stress of 40 kPa and settlement is receded in dry and in soaking conditions. Two depths of the geo-mesh reinfo...
