This paper presents bag-of-steps, a new methodology to predict the rehabilitation length of a patient by monitoring the weight he is bearing in his injured leg and using a predictive model based on the bag-of-words technique. A force sensor is used to monitor and characterize the patient’s gait, obtaining a set of step descriptors. These are later used to define a vocabulary of steps that can b...

This was a report about a pseudophakic patient who experienced isolated total aniridia without damage to other intraocular structures following blunt trauma to the eye. This patient had a history of uneventful cataract surgery using a small clear corneal incision (CCI). This 71-year-old male presented at our clinic with glare in his left eye. He reported that he had fallen down while drunk and ...

In multi-instance learning, the training examples are bags composed of instances without labels and the task is to predict the labels of unseen bags through analyzing the training bags with known labels. In content-based image retrieval (CBIR), the query is ambiguous because it is hard to ask the user precisely specify what he or she wants. Such kind of ambiguity can be gracefully dealt with by...

Scalar three-body force and the properties of the three-nucleon system with the dressed-bag model for N N interaction. Abstract. A multi-component formalism is developed to describe three-body systems with nonstatic pairwise interactions and non-nucleonic degrees of freedom. The dressed-bag model for N N interaction based on the formation of an intermediate six-quark bag dressed by a σ-field is...

Case Report A 60-year-old Chinese male, with no signifi cant medical history, underwent uncomplicated right phacoemulsifi cation surgery with a 5.5 mm capsulorrhexis and implantation of a single piece 4-loop aspheric acrylic PCIOL (Bausch & Lomb Akreos® Adapt AO,+20.0D, Rochester, NY, USA) into the capsular bag in March 2009. There was no zonular dialysis intraoperatively and no signifi cant ca...

A 31-year-old man presented to a local hospital with lower abdominal and rectal pain. He reported consuming a large bag of sunflower seeds (described as chewing and sucking unshelled seeds). The day after ingestion he noted progressive abdominal pain and difficulty passing stool. Due to the pain, he attempted a self-disimpaction with inability to clear a palpable mass, prompting him to present ...

so the CO2 tension can be measured in a gas rather than in a liquid (Campbell and Howell, 1960a). The problem is to achieve this equilibrium before the prevention of its excretion causes the pressure of the CO2 in the blood to rise excessively. A rapid equilibrium will be achieved if a gas mixture is rebreathed which contains enough CO2 to enrich the alveolar gas to approximately the same tensi...

I wish to report an unusual postoperative burn in a 79 year-old man undergoing a right total hip replacement. A pre-operative lumbar plexus block was performed and general anaesthesia induced. He was placed in the left lateral position with a beanbag to secure him and an axillary roll was placed under the dependent left axilla. The diathermy plate was attached to the left thigh. An upper body f...
