Hughes-Stovin Syndrome (HSS) is a very rare clinical disorder characterized by thrombophlebitis and multiple pulmonary and/or bronchial aneurysms. Less than 40 published cases of HSS have been described in English medical literature so far. The exact etiology and pathogenesis of HSS is unknown; possible causes include infections and angiodysplasia. HSS has also been considered as a variant of B...

Along with technological progress, manufacturing processes have been constantly innovated, hoping to reduce time, extend the useful life of tools and offer high quality finishes product, however, information on product is scarce. Machined in 7075 - T6 aluminum, which, due its mechanical properties, more used for manufacture molds dies than other materials. In this project, a high-performance ma...

In the machining world, development of predictive models is one remedy to reducing tool failure and its associated challenges like reduction in integrity machined parts, production shutdown idle time for machine operators. this research, we want show how robust Finite Element (ANSYS) method is, by comparing capacity experimental operation. To achieve scope study, Seventeen (17) varying set expe...

Automation and optimization of the manufacturing processes play an important role in enhancing productivity. For this, monitoring and diagnostic systems are becoming increasingly necessary to asses the response of materials in manufacturing. In this paper, acoustic emission (AE) sensing was employed for on-line detection of workpiece status and to improve the process stability and workpiece qua...

The slotted-hidden-gap (SHG) connection eliminates the need to reinforce slot region of hollow structural sections (HSS) braces concentrically braced frames (CBFs). However, existing design approach for SHG connections is rather empirical and limited by range geometries materials that had previously been tested. A general based on findings a large-scale parametric study presented in this paper,...

BACKGROUND Renal involvement in Schistosoma mansoni infection is not well studied. The aim of this study is to investigate the occurrence of renal abnormalities in patients with hepatosplenic schistosomiasis (HSS), especially renal tubular disorders. METHODS This is a cross-sectional study with 20 consecutive patients with HSS followed in a medical center in Maceió, Alagoas, Brazil. Urinary a...

Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome (HSS) is a heredodegenerative disorder characterized by both progressive pyramidal and extrapyramidal signs, dysarthric speech, and mental deterioration. No diagnostic biochemical test is yet available, and diagnosis of HSS can be confirmed only at autopsy by the characteristic neuropathology including abnormal iron storage, disordered myelination, and loss of brain ...

We report three consecutive patients with hypersensitivity syndrome (HSS) due to phenytoin and carbamazepine and successful treatment with gabapentin. HSS is a rare but potentially fatal reaction to multiple drugs including several anticonvulsants. Cross-reactivity among drugs may occur. Immediate withdrawal of the offending drug is the most important step in treatment. Benzodiazepines acutely ...

Cutting tests were conducted to medium carbon steel using HSS tools with cutting fluid. The experimental design used was based on response surface methodology (RSM) using a central composite design. Chips were collected at different machining conditions and thickness and microhardness measurements taken and analyzed using “DESIGN EXPERT 7” experimental design software. Mathematical models of th...
