the term ultra short is not clearly defined in ultrashort-segment hirschsprung’s disease. the limited extent of the ultrashort-segment hirschsprung’s disease allows for treatment with extended sphincteromyectomy. in anal sphincter achalasia, anal sphincter dilatation under general anesthesia may be sufficient to treat the condition; in cases with persistent constipation, sphincteromyectomy is i...

in this study to determine whether spine stiffness is predictive of clinical results after lumbar spinal fusion for spinal stenosis, a total of 78 patients were measured intraoperatively with kocher clamp manual distraction technique to determine motion segment stiffness then spinal fusion was performed for any loose segment. ‎statistical analysis revealed that stiffness measurement correlate w...

We introduce an online neural sequence to sequence model that learns to alternate between encoding and decoding segments of the input as it is read. By independently tracking the encoding and decoding representations our algorithm permits exact polynomial marginalization of the latent segmentation during training, and during decoding beam search is employed to find the best alignment path toget...

Based on a group of new Saul’yev type asymmetric difference schemes constructed by author, a high-order, unconditionally stable and parallel alternating segment explicit-implicit method for the numerical solution of the fourth-order heat equation is derived in this paper. The truncation error is fourth-order in space, which is much more accurate than the known alternating segment explicit-impli...

The automatic assignment of protein secondary structure from three dimensional coordinates is an essential step in the characterization of protein structure. <span style="font...
