BACKGROUND Anastomotic leakage (AL) is one of the most common and serious complications following visceral surgery. In recent years, endoluminal vacuum therapy has dramatically changed therapeutic options for AL, but its use has been limited to areas easily accessible by endoscope. CASE PRESENTATION We describe the first use of endoluminal vacuum therapy in the small intestine employing a com...

Background: Cadmium (Cd) intoxication can cause oxidative stress and involve the antioxi-dant defense system in hepatocytes. Administration of vitamin C, chitosan, or a combination of both may prevent Cd-induced oxidative damage. Methods:Cyprinus carpio were distributed into six groups. The control group received normal feed (Group I). Group II was exposed to 0.2 mg.L-1 cadmium chloride. Gr...

scid disorder is major failure of the immune system, usually genetic. the aim of this study was on mutations detection of rag1, rag2, and il7rg genes in scid cases. mutation detection was performed by pcr sequencing. our results  indicated  that 13  mutations  were found  through  cases which  include 4 mutations in il7r gene (t661i, i138v, t56a, c57w), 7 mutations in rag1 (w896x, w204r, m324v,...

Creep age forming (CAF) is one of the novel methods in aerospace industry that has been used to manufacture components of panels with improved mechanical properties and reduced fabrication cost. CAF is a combined age-hardening and stress-relaxation that are responsible for strengthening and forming, respectively. This paper deals with the experimental investigations of mechanical and springback...

One of the popular techniques to fabricate metal matrix composites is compo-casting process. The un-uniform spreading reinforced subdivisions (particles) inside metallic and lack desirable mechanical properties final produced due low bonding strength among reinforcement particles are main challenges in this warm accumulative press (APB) technique was utilized as supplementary improve microstruc...
