Patients that present with high-pressure injection injuries most often have hand or digital involvement. Overall, highpressure injection injuries to the hand are uncommon and tend to be occupation related. The usual cause is industrial equipment, with machinery such as grease guns, spray guns and diesel engine injectors accounting for most of these injuries. Materials injected include the follo...

the structural and energetic characteristics of o3–h2o complexes have been investigated by means of b3lyp, mp2, mp4(sdtq), ccsd(t) and qcisd(t) methods in conjunction with the aug-cc-pvdz and aug-cc-pvtz basis sets. six conformers were found for the o3–h2o complex. two different intermolecular interactions were expected to participate in the formation of complexes, namely conventional o∙∙∙h hyd...
