STUDY OBJECTIVE Orotracheal intubation (OTI) is commonly used to establish a definitive airway in major trauma victims, with several different cervical spine immobilization techniques and laryngoscope blade types used. This experimental, randomized, crossover trial evaluated the effects of manual in-line stabilization and cervical collar immobilization and 3 different laryngoscope blades on cer...

In this survey several papers related to the Radon transform appeared after 2013 are discussed. For the short survey of the …rst 100 years of the history of the theory, I refer to historical notes in the books of Helgason [7] Natterer [5] and in [50]. Pioneering papers of A. Cormack 1963-64 on "Representation of a function by its line integrals" were devoted to medical applications [3]. Few yea...

BACKGROUND Videolaryngoscopy has become increasingly attractive for the routine management of the difficult airway. Glidescope® is well studied in the literature while imago V-Blade® is a recent videolaryngoscope. This is a feasibility study with 1:1 case-control sequential allocation comparing Imago V-Blade ® and Glidescope® in predicted difficult airway settings. METHODS Two senior anesthes...

In open population capture-recapture studies, it is usually assumed that similar animals (e.g., of the same sex and age group) have similar survival rates and capture probabilities. These assumptions are generally perceived to be an oversimplification, and they can lead to incorrect model selection and biased parameter estimates. Allowing for individual variability in survival and capture proba...

Recent developments in the Cormack-Jolly-Seber (CJS) model for analyzing capture-recapture data have focused on allowing the capture and survival rates to vary between individuals. Several methods have been developed in which capture and survival are functions of auxiliary variables that may be discrete, constant over time, or apply to the population as a whole, but the problem has not been sol...

Trên thế giới đã có nhiều nghiên cứu cho thấy đặt NKQ bằng đèn soi thanh quản video hỗ trợ mang lại tỉ lệ thành công cao hơn so với thông thường, giảm biến chứng trong nhất là khó. Ưu điểm của tối ưu hóa khả năng bộc lộ môn, trên những bệnh nhân đặc giải phẫu không thuận lợi nội khí thường. Chúng tôi tiến hành 74 được để đánh giá hiệu quả và khó khăn khi áp dụng kỹ thuật này.

An understanding of the survival probability and abundance endangered species is critical for their effective conservation management. In this study, long-term capture-mark-recapture data were used to estimate apparent green turtles Chelonia mydas at Kuroshima Island in Yaeyama Islands, Japan. A total 453 captured from 2009 2020 using entangling nets. All juveniles subadults; no adult during st...
