background: dialysis patients frequently have coronary artery disease but are regarded as high risk patients for coronary artery bypass grafting (cabg). methods: between february 2002 and september 2006, seventeen dialysis-dependent patients underwent isolated cabg at our center. cabg was performed under cardiopulmonary bypass (cpb) for all the patients. all cases had been maintained on hemodia...

CONTEXT Recently, two patients with primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) delivered healthy babies after in vitro activation (IVA) treatment followed by auto-transplantation of frozen-thawed ovarian tissues. OBJECTIVE This study sought to report the first case of live birth after IVA treatment following fresh ovarian tissue grafting in patients with POI, together with monitoring of follicle dev...

We show that an instanton with high charge can provoke the creation of extra curvature on space holds it. Geometrically, this corresponds to a new surgery operation, which we name grafting. Curvature around sphere increases by grafting when decays.

This study investigated the chemical grafting of a single-layer poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVOH) film. The effect of the grafting parameters (grafting time, grafting temperature, and concentration of fatty acid chloride) on the hydrophobicity of the film surface and the film solubility were evaluated. The PVOH substrate film (cold-water soluble at 20°C) was manufactured by flat extrusion and had a th...

In a series of Polynesian pearls collected after short cultivation periods, early post-grafting mineral deposits were characterized by high resolution synchrotron-based X-ray fluorescence with unprecedented accuracy. Morphological patterns and elemental composition are correlated through simultaneous imaging processes. Evidence that aragonite calcite occur in neighboring units during the earlie...

Abstract The objective of this work was to evaluate air layering, cutting, and grafting, with different indolebutyric acid (IBA) rates, for the vegetative propagation Eugenia involucrata. Air layering carried out two consecutive years five IBA rates. Cutting tested woody herbaceous cuttings, using four in three seasons. grafting methods – cleft graft splice were For trials experimental designs ...

heparin- induced thrombocytopenia (hit) is an antibody mediated adverse effect of heparin therapy which is classified into two subtypes, hit i which is non-immune, spontaneously reversible thrombocytopenia and; hit ii which is an autoimmune-mediated adverse effect of heparin therapy. in this case report, we described a 65-year old male patient with hit ii after coronary artery bypass grafting. ...

LetX be a closed oriented hyperbolic surface and γ a simple closed geodesic, which is short on X. We show that the iterated grafting grtγgrsγX is close to the grafting ray gr(s+T )γX in the Teichmüller metric, where the bounds depend on the length of γ only. Using this result, we show that the holonomy lifts gr2πγgrtγX of a grafting ray all lie in a r-tube around the ray grtγX and the rays grtγ...

Nitrate plays a major role in the yield and quality of tobacco plants. This work explored the nitrogen-use efficiency (NUE) and how it can be affected by grafting. Two experiments were designed: in the first, using six commercial tobacco cultivars, the best cultivar for the NUE was selected and analysed for foliar NO3− content, total N, nicotine and nitrate reductase (NR) activity. The results ...

A holomorphic quadratic differential on a hyperbolic Riemann surface has an associated measured foliation, which can be straightened to yield a measured geodesic lamination. On the other hand, a quadratic differential can be considered as the Schwarzian derivative of a CP1 structure, to which one can naturally associate another measured geodesic lamination (using grafting). We compare these two...
