Time-resolved imaging, fluorescence microscopy, and hydrodynamic modeling were used to examine cell lysis and molecular delivery produced by picosecond and nanosecond pulsed laser microbeam irradiation in adherent cell cultures. Pulsed laser microbeam radiation at λ = 532 nm was delivered to confluent monolayers of PtK2 cells via a 40×, 0.8 NA microscope objective. Using laser microbeam pulse d...

We compared breastfeeding initiation and duration in 1054 nulliaparae randomised to bupivacaine Control epidural, Combined Spinal Epidural or Low Dose Infusion and 351 matched non-epidural comparisons. Women were interviewed after delivery and completed a postal questionnaire at 12 months. Regression analysis determined factors which independently predicted breastfeeding initiation. Breastfeedi...

BACKGROUND/AIM The aim of this study was to evaluate pregnancy outcome during the bombing of Yugoslavia in the period from March 24 to June 9, 1999. METHODS A retrospective study included a total of 81 spontaneous abortion following XII gestation week, and 1448 deliveries, hospitalized in the regional hospital. The analyzed were: the incidence of spontaneous abortion, Cesarean section, post-t...

The skin is an attractive site for the delivery of nucleic acid-based drugs for the treatment of topical and/or systemic diseases as well as for DNA immunization. However, due to the barrier properties of the skin, the penetration of nucleic acids in or across the skin is limited. This review focuses on the chemical, biological or physical methods developed to enhance nucleic acid delivery into...

background: cesarean delivery is a surgery for deliver a baby. women with previous cesarean delivery (cd) must often choose between a vaginal delivery (vd) and repeat cd. our aim of this study was to investigate factors associated with preference for cd in neyshabur pregnant women with previous cd. methods: a cross‑sectional study was conducted on all pregnant women (who had previous caesarean ...

This paper proposes a framework for quantifying the macroscopic impacts of delivery goods made by double-parked vehicles in urban arterial using microscopic simulation. It is applied to a real urban corridor: the Lafayette Avenue in Lyon (France). The framework combines traffic states with stochastic and microscopic freight demand generation model, i.e. the delivery movements and the delivery d...

background with the advent of hystroscopic surgery, abnormalities confined to the uterine cavity such as endometrial polyps, submucous myomas, uterine septae and synechia , were supposed to be treated effectively. diagnostic hysteroscopy is the gold standard for investigating the intrauterine diseases as it allows for biopsy and removal of lesions. objectives forty premenopausal women without t...

OBJECTIVE To study if the duration of individual Doppler abnormalities is an independent predictor of adverse outcome in fetal growth restriction (FGR) caused by placental dysfunction. METHODS This was a secondary analysis of patients with FGR (abdominal circumference < 5(th) percentile and umbilical artery (UA) pulsatility index (PI) elevation) who had at least three examinations before deli...
