background: this study compared the early success, complication and patient satisfaction rates of modified extraperitoneal radical cystectomy (mainz ii urinary diversion) with standard intraperitoneal radical cystectomy (continent ileocecal urinary diversion) in a group of patients with muscle invasive urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder. methods: from september 2009 until november 2013...

Originating in Glacier Park, Montana, the transboundary St. Mary River has provided a focus for international water sharing century. It was dammed and diverted USA, more extensively Alberta, where it supports Canada's centre agricultural irrigation. Following withdrawals, riparian cottonwoods (Populus angustifolia) collapsed, we assessed woodland decline downstream from Dam, through eight sets ...

  A 57-year-old male with history of prostatectomy, cyctectomy, cecal urinary diversion for invasive prostate cancer and with a recent rise in PSA level, was referred for bone scintigraphy to rule out osseous metastatic disease. An interesting finding was abnormal tracer accumulation throughout the large bowel, which was proved to be due to urinary diversion.

This report describes Diversion Alert, a unique online tool aimed at reducing misuse and diversion of prescription drugs, and reports the results of a 1-year evaluation of Diversion Alert's impact in Maine. We used a quasi-experimental research design to compare survey data in Maine with those of neighboring states (New Hampshire and Vermont, 2013 and 2014). Compared with their counterparts in ...

The evolutions of practices of seismic slope stability analysis of earth embankment/dam are discussed in this paper. The basic concepts of various methods, salient features, advantages and limitations of each of them are elucidate. Methods for both stability analysis and deformation calculation are presented. Methods for calculation of deformation of post liquefaction stage are also briefed.

Bladder cancer is a common type of genitourinary cancer, and radical cystectomy with urinary diversion is considered to be the most effective local treatment for invasive bladder cancer. In order to assess the functional results and health-related quality of life (QOL) in bladder cancer patients with an orthotopic neobladder, and to provide a reasonable basis for the evaluation of urinary diver...
