A group of 89 severely head injured patients was tested psychologically within two years of injury, and test performance was related to indices of brain damage. Duration of coma (Glasgow Coma Scale) bore little relationship to later cognitive outcome but duration of post-traumatic amnesia significantly predicted cognitive performance. Patients with an operated haematoma performed better than no...

Abstract As more vehicles are being connected to the Internet and equipped with autonomous driving features, robust safety security measures required for (CAVs). Therefore, threat analysis risk assessment essential prepare against cybersecurity risks CAVs. Although prior studies have measured possibility of attack damage from as indices, they not analyzed expanding surface or indices that rely ...

Damage status of RC buildings is greatly influenced by the characteristics of the imposed ground motion. Peak Ground Acceleration and frequency contents are considered the main two factors that affect ground motion characteristics; hence, affecting the seismic response of RC structures and consequently their damage state. A detailed investigation on the combined effects of these two factors on ...

Energy sustainability and the establishment of ‘national water network’ are all inseparable from construction underground engineering. Monitoring indices for surrounding rock vital safety management engineering construction, which determines actual state rock. The complexity deep leads to many situations that cannot be predicted explained by existing experience. Therefore, it is necessary ident...

AIMS To assess the extent of apoptosis in ovarian serous carcinoma and to examine possible relations between apoptosis, cell proliferation, p53 overexpression, and patient survival. METHODS Apoptotic and mitotic indices were obtained by examining haematoxylin and eosin stained sections from 30 patients with ovarian serous carcinoma. Apoptosis was also evaluated semiquantitatively by in situ e...
