The spermatozoon of Hemirhamphodon pogonognathus shows modifications that are frequent though not obligate in internally fertilizing sperm, notably elongation of the nucleus and extension of the mitochondria of the midpiece as an elongate sheath around the proximal region of the axoneme. These similarities to poecilid and jenynsid sperm are considered homoplasic. As in the mature sperm of all b...

As an efficient approach to create garments with a designer’s Kansei, we developed method for three-dimensional (3D) garment modeling sleeves by deforming 3D reference clothing model according the contours of images aim apply it patternmaking. We determined appropriate bodice from various dress forms. made sleeve sweeping armhole whose was on plane. Using this method, obtained models two jacket...

In the ball type fracturing sliding sleeve, contact surface between socket and is most vulnerable part to failure. Once fails, sealing of sleeve will fail, fluid leak, finally fail. The condition mainly determined by cone angle socket. order improve as much possible, extend service life based on erosion finite element structural analysis, this paper has carried out analysis sleeve. Firstly, sea...

AbstractBackground: In recent years, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has become more acceptable for obese patients. Single-port sleeve gastrectomy (SPSG) is more popular since each abdominal incision carries the risk of bleeding, hernia, and internal organ injury as well as exponentially affecting cosmesis. This cross-sectional study aimed at comparing multi-port sleeve gastrectomy (MPSG)...

Two male patients were admitted with right upper lobe tumor. In both cases, standard upper lobectomy or sleeve lobectomy was not applicable because of the invasion of lateral wall of the lower trachea. The standard surgical option was tracheal sleeve pneumonectomy. Avoidance of pneumonectomy could be achieved by Nohl-Oser tracheobronchoplasty. Both patients had smooth postoperative course. We p...
