Peak combustion pressures (PCP) are increased in heavy-duty diesel engines to obtain higher thermal efficiency. Fuel injection strategy has been a major measure improve the and emissions of engines. But most existing work multi-injection strategies was not limited by PCP or conducted under lower (∼15 MPa). In this study, an experimental study is further understanding on engine performance relat...

The current study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of palonosetron hydrochloride injection for preventing chemotherapy-induced moderate and severe nausea and vomiting. A multi-centered, randomly stratified, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel-group and positive-controlled trial was performed. A total of 240 patients who underwent chemotherapy treatment which induced moderate or severe...

Effective pain management of the endodontic emergency patient is often a problem. Ketorolac tromethamine is the first nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug available for intramuscular injection in the United States. Although its analgesic efficacy is comparable with opiates after intramuscular injection, to date no study has evaluated its efficacy after intraoral periapical injection. Fifty-two e...

A 35-year-old woman with brow spasms, treated in the past with Botox, was referred for increasing tightness in the brow. She reported having experienced an episode of difficulty focusing after a previous injection of Botox by another physician. The patient had no response to a subcutaneous injection consisting of 10 units of Botox above the eyebrows, nor to a subsequent injection of 20 units in...

PURPOSE Locoregional radioimmunotherapy of i.p. tumor cell dissemination of diffuse-type gastric cancer using the alpha-emitter 213Bi displayed good therapeutic results after a single application depending on the time interval between tumor cell inoculation and injection of the 213Bi-immunoconjugate. The aim of the present study was to compare single versus double i.p. injection of a tumor-spec...

This study presents a thermodynamic model for determining the entrainment ratio and double choke limiting pressure of supersonic ejectors within the context of heat driven refrigeration cycles, with and without droplet injection, at the constant area section of the device. Input data include the inlet operating conditions and key geometry parameters (primary throat, mixing section and diffuser ...

This research is representative of a two semester project focusing on noise reduction strategies for cable systems. Several specific areas of EM noise reduction are evaluated including shield termination techniques, and double shield techniques. In obtaining empirical results for all test cases, noise injection through bulk current injection (BCI) and transverse electromagnetic (TEM) cell expos...

As increasing numbers of anesthetists perform eye block anesthesia, thorough understandings of peribulbar injection techniques are important for safe practice. There is uncertainty in the literature regarding the optimum needle length, entry point, volume of injectate, and use of single vs double-injection techniques. A modified technique of peribulbar block anesthesia is presented, which offer...

We propose and demonstrate self-aligned Double Injection Function Thin Film Transistor (DIF-TFT) architecture that mitigates short channel effects in 200 nm on non-scaled insulator (100 SiO 2 ). In this conceptual design, a combination of ohmic-like injection contact high injection-barrier metal...

A comparison of 5-fluorouracil administered by rapid i.v. injection versus 2-hr infusion was conducted in a double-blind study of 149 patients with advanced large bowel cancer. Dosages for each regimen were selected to produce definite but clinically tolerable toxicity. Toxicity pattern, objective response, and symptomatic response were essentially equal with these methods of administration. Fo...
