BACKGROUND To assess the application of cell phone integrating into the healthcare system to improve antenatal care (ANC) and expanded programme on immunization (EPI) services for the under-served population in border area. METHODS A module combining web-based and mobile technology was developed to generate ANC/EPI visit schedule dates in which the healthcare personnel can cross-check, identi...

A new versatile transbronchial needle, the modified type 2B retractable needle, was used for the staging and diagnosis of bronchogenic carcinoma. It combines the advantages of its predecessors, the fixed type 1A needle and the retractable type 2A needle, such as convenience of usage and the added ability to sample peripheral as well as central lesions. The new modified type 2B retractable needl...

A ring R is called right strong stably finite (r.ssf) if for all n ≥ 1, injective endomorphisms of R (n) R are essential. If R is an r.ssf ring and e is an idempotent of R such that eR is a retractable R-module, then eRe is an r.ssf ring. A direct product of rings is an r.ssf ring if and only if each factor is so. The R.ssf condition is investigated for formal triangular matrix rings. In partic...

Purpose The characteristic MRI features of multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions make it conceptually appealing to pursue parametric mapping techniques that support simultaneous generation quantitative maps 2 or more MR contrast mechanisms. We present a modular rapid acquisition with relaxation enhancement (RARE)-EPI hybrid facilitates T2 and T ∗ (2in1-RARE-EPI). Methods In 2in1-RARE-EPI the first ec...

Retractable type fall arresters are part of the equipment used for protecting people against falls from a height. They are an intermediate part between full body harness worn by a man and the structural anchor at the worksite. The most important task of retractable type fall arresters is to arrest people's falls and to reduce their harmful consequences. Information received from users as well a...

A retrospective study was conducted of 91 boys who had had a non-retractable but non-fibrosed prepuce treated by retraction under general anaesthesia. Of the 79 boys who had had symptoms, 67 (85%) obtained relief. Twelve of the 91 patients were later circumcised because of continuing problems. Retraction of the foreskin alone is a simple and effective alternative to circumcision in managing mos...
