reduces the congestion and makes the proceedings easier. Technique.?First clean the part with rectified spirit. Starting at the tip of the finger (figure 1) a strong thread (twine would suffice) is wound round the fingers, the strands touching each other without overlapping, till the strands reach in the vicinity of the ring. The free end of the thread is now manipulated under or preferably thr...

BACKGROUND Anatomically preshaped plates are increasingly used for stabilization of comminuted olecranon and Monteggia fractures. The purposes of this study were to investigate the morphology of the proximal ulna and to compare morphologic findings with geometry of 4 preshaped ulna plates. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty human elbows (mean age, 68 years; range, 21-98 years) were measured by 2 ind...

 Abstract: This paper presents the results of an experimental examination of the effect of non-uniform wall temperature on local heat transfer coefficient in a rotating smooth-walled square channel. Three different thermal boundary situations were investigated: (a) even and odd (four) wall uniform temperature, (b) even and odd (four) wall uniform heat flux, and (c) even (leading and trailing) w...

Venous stents are a common treatment modality for obstructive venous diseases. differentiate themselves by woven or braided structure, open closed cell arrangement based on material composition (elgiloy vs nitinol). Changes in the morphology of over time may contribute to restenosis thrombosis. Woven elgiloy prone proximal and distal edge deformation compared with dedicated which offer increase...

Proximal humerus fractures are rarely associated with axillary artery injury. We present a case of a 59-year-old female who had fracture neck humerus along with absent pulsations in the left upper limb after blunt trauma. Computed tomographic angiogram revealed complete occlusion of the left axillary artery. Urgent surgical intervention was done in the form of fixation of fracture followed by e...

The vertex-edge Wiener index of a simple connected graph G is defined as the sum of distances between vertices and edges of G. Two possible distances D_1(u,e|G) and D_2(u,e|G) between a vertex u and an edge e of G were considered in the literature and according to them, the corresponding vertex-edge Wiener indices W_{ve_1}(G) and W_{ve_2}(G) were introduced. In this paper, we present exact form...

‎For a coloring $c$ of a graph $G$‎, ‎the edge-difference coloring sum and edge-sum coloring sum with respect to the coloring $c$ are respectively‎ ‎$sum_c D(G)=sum |c(a)-c(b)|$ and $sum_s S(G)=sum (c(a)+c(b))$‎, ‎where the summations are taken over all edges $abin E(G)$‎. ‎The edge-difference chromatic sum‎, ‎denoted by $sum D(G)$‎, ‎and the edge-sum chromatic sum‎, ‎denoted by $sum S(G)$‎, ‎a...

BACKGROUND Acetabular dysplasia associated with deformity of the proximal part of the femur can result in hip dysfunction and degenerative arthritis in young adults. The optimal method of surgical correction for these challenging combined deformities remains controversial. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed twenty-four hips in twenty patients who underwent a Bernese periacetabular osteotomy,...

The edges of an image define the image boundary. When the image is noisy, it does not become easy to identify the edges. Therefore, a method requests to be developed that can identify edges clearly in a noisy image. Many methods have been proposed earlier using filters, transforms and wavelets with Ant colony optimization (ACO) that detect edges. We here used ACO for edge detection of noisy ima...

Let G=(V(G),E(G)) be a connected simple undirected graph with non empty vertex set V(G) and edge set E(G). For a positive integer k, by an edge irregular total k-labeling we mean a function f : V(G)UE(G) --> {1,2,...,k} such that for each two edges ab and cd, it follows that f(a)+f(ab)+f(b) is different from f(c)+f(cd)+f(d), i.e. every two edges have distinct weights. The minimum k for which G ...
