OBJECTIVE To compare the pregnancy-related complications after laparoscopic and laparotomic uterine myomectomy. METHODS A retrospective study of 415 women who received laparoscopic (n = 340) or laparotomic (n = 75) resection of uterine leiomyomas in one center. The mean follow-up period was 26.5 months in laparoscopic group and 23.9 months in laparotomic group. RESULTS Fifty-four and 12 pre...

Black and Latino young men who have sex with men (YMSM) are at disproportionate risk for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), including HIV. This study informs school-centered strategies for connecting YMSM to health services by describing their willingness, perceived safety, and experiences in talking to school staff about sexual health. Cross-sectional data were collected from Black and Lati...

Hand-assisted laparoscopic nephrectomy (HAL-N) and nephroureterectomy (HAL-NU) were introduced to bridge the gap between open and laparoscopic surgery. This newer technique has the benefits of both laparoscopic and open surgical approaches but has a shorter learning curve and decreased operative time compared to laparoscopic surgery. A review of our 2-year experience showed that for the sevente...

OBJECTIVE To compare standard management of keeping wounds dry and covered with allowing wounds to be uncovered and wet in the first 48 hours after minor skin excision. DESIGN Prospective, randomised controlled, multicentre trial testing for equivalence of infection rates. SETTING Primary care in regional centre, Queensland, Australia. PARTICIPANTS 857 patients randomised to either keep t...

1 Summary We present a CCD investigation of the galactic globular M5 aimed to increase the statistical relevance of the available sample of evolving bright stars. Previous investigations, limited to the outer cluster region, have been extended toward the cluster center, more than doubling the number of observed luminous stars. On this basis, we discuss a statistically relevant sample, rich of 4...

This research investigates the impact of supportive supervisors on doctoral students’ productivity, with parallel mediation effects academic engagement and psychological capital as two mediators. Data has been collected through an online survey from international students ( N = 415) studying in six research-oriented universities mainland China. Confirmatory factor analysis structural modeling w...

The UV-visible absorption spectrum of gaseous IONO 2 has been measured over the wavelength range 245–415 nm using the technique of laser photolysis with time-resolved UV-visible absorption spectroscopy. IONO 2 was produced in situ in the gas phase by laser flash photolysis of NO 2 /CF 3 I/N 2 mixtures. Post-flash spectra were deconvolved 5 to remove contributions to the observed absorption from...

When probabilistic inferences have to be made from cue values stored in long-term memory, many participants appear to use fast and frugal heuristics, such as "take the best" (TTB), that assume sequential search of cues. A simultaneous global matching process with cue weights that are appropriately chosen would mimic the decision outcomes, albeit assuming different cognitive processes. We presen...
