BACKGROUND Acromioclavicular injuries are common in sports medicine. Surgical intervention is generally advocated for chronic instability of Rockwood grade III and more severe injuries. Various methods of coracoclavicular ligament reconstruction and augmentation have been described. The objective of this study is to compare the biomechanical properties of a novel palmaris-longus tendon reconstr...

Abstract In agriculture, Pests are decreasing agricultural productivity. Identifying a pest is challenging process and subject to expert opinion. Nowadays, lots of work carried out for automatic detection. It becomes possible because emerging Deep Learning’s object detection architectures. This paper shows the multi-class using Faster R-CNN architecture compared performance results image augmen...

Low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites benefit future ground-based positioning with their high number, strong signal strength and speed. The rapid geometry change the LEO augmentation offers acceleration of convergence precision point (PPP) solution. This contribution discusses influences on precise positioning—real-time kinematic (PPP-RTK) its integrity monitoring. Using 1 Hz simulated data around B...

BACKGROUND Breast augmentation is an elective surgery used to increase the size of the breast in females. This study was undertaken to determine the breast augmentation in Pakistani females. METHODS From 2006 to 2011, 43 female patients who underwent breast augmentation via infra-mammary, periareolar, trans-umbilical and fat transfer were enrolled. For augmentation, saline-filled or gel-fill...

The astronomical site parameters for the Magdalena Ridge Observatory (MRO) are being studied from numerous aspects including meteorological, environmental, seismic and sky quality (e.g. “seeing”, cloud cover). Results to date indicate that MRO is an excellent site for astronomical observing. Seeing measurements of less that 1 arc second in the optical are routinely obtained. Seismic conditions ...

According to the authors, breast augmentation can be safely performed with the use of well-monitored sedation anesthesia. They credit this method with a brief recovery period, fast return to normal activity, minimal discomfort, and more safety and convenience than general anesthesia.

This case report describes a tissue-engineered reconstruction with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein 2/acellular collagen sponge (rhBMP-2/ ACS) + cancellous allograft and space maintenance via Medpor Contain mesh in the treatment of a patient requiring maxillary and mandibular horizontal ridge augmentation to enable implant placement. The patient underwent a previously unsuccessful c...

Bridge detection in aerial images is to determine whether a given image contains one or more bridges and localize them. However, the arbitrary orientations, extreme aspect ratios, complex backgrounds pose great challenges for bridge positioning. In this paper, we tackle these problems by combining strengths of semantic-segmentation-based auxiliary supervision, waterbody constraint, instance-swi...
