Background: Our aim is to describe Gallucci’s (VV-G) technique for vesicourethral anastomosis and posterior musculofascial reconstruction (PMFR) during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) assess early urinary continence recovery perioperative outcomes. VV-G consists of a “single knot–single running suture” with PMFR. Methods: Between September 2019 October 2021, we prospectively compare...

BACKGROUND Postpartum hemorrhage is the leading cause of maternal death, uterine atony accounts for 75-90% of primary postpartum hemorrhage. The efficacy of the Uterine compression suture in the treatment of atonic postpartum hemorrhage is time-tested and can be said to be almost established.The aim of this study was to assess the role of the Mansoura-VV uterine compression suture as an early i...

The Great Observatories All-sky LIRG Survey (GOALS) combines data from NASA’s Spitzer, Chandra, Hubble and GALEX observatories, together with ground-based data into a comprehensive imaging and spectroscopic survey of over 200 low redshift (z < 0.088), Luminous Infrared Galaxies (LIRGs). The LIRGs are a complete subset of the IRAS Revised Bright Galaxy Sample (RBGS), which comprises 629 extragal...

Recirculation during dual lumen veno-venous (DLVV) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a dynamic event that results in a fraction of the oxygenated blood exiting the arterial lumen and immediately shunting back into the venous lumen. Excessive recirculation will result in suboptimal oxygen delivery to the patient. Ultrasound dilution is a technology that has been shown to rapidly quan...

We re-examine a symmetry in nucleon nucleus scattering that previously had been proclaimed to be dead. We show that this symmetry is the continuum analog of pseudospin symmetry, a relativistic symmetry which manifests itself in the spectra of nuclei. Using experimental data only we show that pseudospin symmetry in nucleon nucleus scattering is not dead but only modestly broken for 800 MeV proto...

This paper presents a VV&A solution to effectively address VV&A problems arising during the development of complex simulation systems. First, a VV&A process is presented along with the development of a computer support tool, HITVICE, which helps to organize and manage the different VV&A activities. Second, the optimal design method for VV&A schemes is presented to produce an optimal scheme, acc...

T-cell based vaccines have been considered as attractive candidates for prevention of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections. In this study we compared the magnitude and phenotypic characteristics of CD8+ T-cells induced by three commonly used viral vectors, Adenovirus-5 (Ad5), Vaccinia virus (VV) and Modified Vaccinia Ankara (MVA) expressing the HCV NS3/4A protein. C57/BL6 mice were primed with DN...
