Greetings, everyone! It’s an honor to be appointed as the vice chair for membership of 2022 Member and Geographic Activities–Student Activities Committee (SAC) IEEE. I look forward opportunity serve more than 120,000 IEEE Student Members worldwide through SAC programs. We have some exciting plans this year. If you any creative ideas would like implement them with SAC, please send us email at sa...

1. A mucocele of the lacrimal sac, or 2. Chronic dacryocystitis or conjunctivitis due to lacrimal sac obstruction, or 3. Congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction that cannot be cured by probing (members should be over 1 year of age), or 4. Epiphora (excessive tearing) due to acquired obstruction within the nasolacrimal sac and duct, or 5. Lacrimal sac infection that must be relieved before intr...

In order to evaluate the hypothetical activity of foetal hepatic factors on putative yolk-sac haemopoietic stem cells we used the Double Diffusion Chamber (DDC) techniqUe. The DDC were made of a regulator compartment, where foetal hepatic tissue was introduced and a test compartment where visceral yolk-sac cells were cultured. In this system a hepatic signal induced the yolk-sac stem cells to d...

We present the case of delayed migration of a thrombosed aortic endograft within a thrombosed aneurysm sac that expanded and ruptured. Dilation of the aortic neck likely led to endograft migration and exposure of the occluded endograft and aneurysm sac to systemic pressure. Although no endoleak was identified, a key finding on ultrasound showed mobility of the sac thrombus. This may be an indic...

Only a few cases of endoleak following conventional abdominal aortic aneurysm repair have been reported. We treated a patient with a type I endoleak-like phenomenon occuring 12 years after conventional abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. Computed tomography demonstrated dilation of the surgically replaced, once-shrunken aneurysm sac to a diameter of 3.5 cm. Thrombus was identified between the gra...

A concentration-dependent surface area parameter model (Iwai, Fluid Phase Equilibria, 465 (2018) 24–32) was modified to avoid the restriction conditions for parameters of pure components. The is applied correlate ternary liquid-liquid equilibria and constituent binary phase with one set parameters. correlated results both vapor-liquid obtained by are better than those NRTL UNIQUAC models. simul...

PURPOSE Aortic Customize is a new concept for endovascular aortic aneurysm repair in which a non polymerized elastomer is injected to fill the aneurysm sac around a balloon catheter. The aim of this in vitro study was to investigate the extent of aneurysm wall stress reduction by the presence of a noncompliant elastomer cuff. METHODS A thin-walled latex aneurysm (inner radius sac 18 mm, inner...

To evaluate the effectiveness of a superactivated charcoal (SAC) in alleviating mycotoxicosis, two experiments were conducted in which 432 male broiler chicks (216 per experiment) were fed diets containing 4 mg aflatoxin (AF) or 6 mg T-2 toxin/kg of diet, with and without 0.5% SAC, from 1 to 21 d of age. Feeding AF and T-2 toxin significantly decreased BW gain over the 21-d experimental period....
