This study represents a collaboration between the Cancer Association of Anderson (CAA) and University Center for Research (AU CCR), both located in Anderson, SC, with assistance support Professional Lifelong Learning PLL). The CAA began importing patient information 2016 into Microsoft Excel workbook to create digital record that could store provide more convenient searching production reports....

The number of lung metastases (M1) colorectal carcinoma (CRC) in relation to the findings computed tomography (CT) is object study. Prospective and multicenter study Spanish Group for Surgery CRC (GECMP-CCR). role CT detection pulmonary M1 evaluated 522 patients who underwent a metastasectomy CRC. We define M1/CT as ratio between metastatic nodules those found on preoperative CT. Disease-specif...

BACKGROUND Few studies have reported the dosage of cefmetazole (CMZ) for intraoperative antimicrobial prophylaxis in patients underwent surgery for colorectal cancer. We therefore examined the optimal intraoperative dosage of CMZ according to pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) theory in patients who undergoing surgery for colorectal cancer. METHODS The study group comprised 23 patients w...

We investigate the time complexity of several fundamental problems on the subbus mesh parallel computer with p processors. The problems include computing the PARITY and MAJORITY of p bits, the SUM of p numbers of length O(logp) and the MINIMUM of p numbers. It is shown that in one dimension the time to compute any of these problems is (log p). In two dimensions the time to compute any of PARITY...

STUDY OBJECTIVE To estimate the point accuracy of adult registration on the community health index (CHI) by comparing it with the electoral register (ER) and the community charge register (CCR). DESIGN Survey of overlapping samples from three registers to ascertain whether respondents were living at the addresses given on the registers, analysed by capture-recapture methods. SETTING Aberdee...

Arteriosclerotic lesions are characterized by the accumulation of T lymphocytes and monocytes and the proliferation of intimal smooth muscle cells. Expression of the chemokine monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP- 1) has been observed in arteriosclerotic plaques and has been proposed to mediate the transendothelial migration of mononuclear cells. More recently, MCP-1 has been proposed to aff...

Objectives: To assess the efficacy of calcium /creatinine ratio (CCR)as a diagnostic test for the prediction of preeclampsia, and also to determine the changes in urinary excretion of calcium in preeclampsia and normotensive women. Material &Methods: Urinary calcium creatinine ratio was determined in a spot urine sample in 145 asymptomatic pregnant women between 20-28 weeks of gestation, who at...

Both the Local Binary Pattern (LBP) and the Coordinated Clusters Representation (CCR) are two methods used successfully in the classification and segmentation of images. They look very similar at first sight. In this work we analyze the principles of the two methods and show that the methods are not reducible to each other. Topologically they are as different as a sphere and a torus. In extract...
