Despite lack of objective evidence based-support, lumbar sympathectomy (LS) continues to hold a place in the treatment of refractory ischemic ulceration or persistent rest pain, especially when there is a distal ischemia, which is not suitable for direct arterial surgery. There is no physiological basis to use lumbar sympathectomy for patients with intermittent claudication. The non-specificity...

purpose : to evaluate the efficacy of pattern visual evoked potentials (pvep), standard automated perimetry (sap), short-wavelength automated perimetry (swap), contrast sensitivity (cs), stereoacuity testing in detecting subclinical visual impairment in visually asymptomatic patients with multiple sclerosis (ms) and no history of optic neuritis methods : twenty-seven eyes of 27 patients (7 male...

The retention time provides critical information for glycan annotation and quantification from the Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) data. However, variation of precise glycans is highly dependent on experimental conditions such as specific separating columns, MS instruments and/or buffer used. This hampers exploitation LC-MS data, especially when inter-laboratory data are compare...

The estimation of antenatal amniotic fluid (AF) volume (AFV) is important as it offers crucial information about fetal development, well-being, and perinatal prognosis. However, AFV measurement cumbersome patient specific. Moreover, heavily sonographer-dependent, with accuracy varying greatly depending on the sonographer’s experience. Therefore, development accurate, robust, adoptable methods t...
