introduction: fractures of the orbital floor, which are caused by various mechanisms, result in the herniation of periorbital tissue into the paranasal sinuses and its subsequent complications. early diagnosis using various techniques and reduction of fractures are necessary to preserve ocular function and esthetic. use of an endoscope has been associated with some advantages, including a decre...

This paper presents a recursive query language solution for the shortest path problem based on the transformation of a cyclic geometric graph into an acyclic time graph, i.e. an acyclic Petri Net specifying the possible transitions (turns) between successive rides on different roads. Using this transformation, the shortest path problem is transformed into a fastest tour problem. The time comple...

a 3-year-old arabian colt was presented for a major gingiva wound at the right rostral part of mandible. after clinical assessments, rostral mandibular fracture was determined. stabilization of fractured region was achieved via cerclage wire application under general anesthesia. fixation wires were left in place for 6 weeks. a 3 -month follow up revealed complete fracture healing. the purpose o...

absractall perilunate fracture-dislocations combine bone avulsions, ligament disruptionand fractures in different forms. the most frequent pattern is the dorsal transscaphoidperilunate fracture-dislocation. the reported risk of missed initial diagnosisin perilunate dislocations is as high as 20%. concerning pathomechanics of theperilunate fracture-dislocation, it should be noted that most dorsa...

Displacing an object with a hand-held rod provided a simple paradigm for studying tool use. The authors asked how reaching was affected by manipulations of rod properties. Adults held a rod (length =.10 to 1.5 m), with its tip in the air; walked toward an object on a table; chose a place to stop; and displaced the object with the rod's tip. In 3 experiments (Ns = 9, 22, and 17 participants), th...

India is a large country, and highways are essential to the nation's progress. National have total distance of 70,548 km, cover 2% India's road network, handle 40% traffic. The number vehicles on increasing as population rises. As increases, accidents also increases. So, they be safe against accidents. cause for generated from accident information GIS platform redesigning highway geometrics mit...
