Identification of standard tests for assessing barrier performance of surgical gowns and drapes has been an illusive goal. Although surgical procedures have been described as early as 1653 when the illustrated surgical methodology for craniotomy was published, documentation of the use of surgical gowns has had to be determined by paintings and photographs. One of the first depictions of the use...

BACKGROUND Heart rate variability (HRV) is a marker of autonomic dysfunction severity. The effects of physical training on HRV indexes in Chagas heart disease (CHD) are not well established. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the changes in HRV indexes in response to physical training in CHD. METHODS Patients with CHD and left ventricular (LV) dysfunction, physically inactive, were randomized either to ...

2,4,6-Triamino-1,3,5-triazine-1,3,5-trioxide (MTO) and 2,4,6-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine-1,3,5-trioxide (MTO3N) were suggested by Klapötke et al. as candidates for green high energy density materials (HEDM), but a successful synthesis has not yet been reported. In order to predict the properties of these systems, we used quantum mechanics (PBE flavor of density functional theory) to predict the mos...

Blood pressure (BP) is a complex trait that is the consequence of an interaction between genetic and environmental determinants. Previous studies have demonstrated increased BP in mice with global deletion of TASK-1 channels contemporaneous with diverse dysregulation of aldosterone production. In humans, genome-wide association studies in ≈100 000 individuals of European, East Asian, and South ...

BACKGROUND The use and popularity of the biphasic waveform defibrillator as a replacement for the monophasic waveform defibrillator are increasing, but it is unclear whether this can improve the rate of survival among out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients. This study aimed to verify the hypothesis that the outcome of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients who received defibrillation shock wi...

BACKGROUND A European-wide population based case-control study (European rare cancer study) undertaken in nine European countries examined risk factors for uveal melanoma. They found a positive association between cooks and the risk of uveal melanoma. In our study we examine whether cooks or people who worked in cook related jobs have an increased uveal melanoma risk. METHODS We conducted a c...
