natural clinoptilolite zeolite (clp) in its original or metal ion- exchanged form (ni2+) is a weak adsorbent for relatively large thiophene derivative molecules like benzothiophene (bt) and di-benzothiophene (dbt), due to its rather restricted micro-channel structure. a novelty of this work is that upon desilication treatments, it is possible to enhance the adsorption behavior of ni2+-exchanged...

pseudoaneurysms (psa) of deep femoral artery (dfa) have been reported following penetrating and blunt trauma to the thigh and orthopedic procedures of the proximal femur. we describe a case of pseudoaneurysm of dfa as a late complication of limb trauma which was confirmed by exploration in an urgent surgery. after two operations successful surgical repair was performed.

background: heat therapy is one of the natural treatments that can affect the information transferred by the proprioceptive receptors. heat has an effect on the conduction velocity of peripheral nerves, but the exact effect of two kinds of deep and superficial heat on the joint position sense is not known clearly. the present study aimed to compare the effect of deep and superficial heat on ank...

introduction: deep sternal wound infection is a rare but serious complication after cardiac surgery that can increase mortality and morbidity. the aim of this study was to investigate the incidence and causative germs of deep sternal wound infection following cardiac surgery.   methods: data were collected retrospectively from patients who underwent different cardiac surgeries including coronar...

Introduction: The advent of antibiotics and the improvement in dental hygiene have made the occurrence of deep neck infections less frequent than in the past. Nevertheless, the complications of these infections are often life threatening. The purpose of this study was to review the clinical findings in deep neck infections and identification predisposing factors of these complications. Material...

We develop an approach for generating deep (i.e, high-level) comprehension questions from novel text that bypasses the myriad challenges of creating a full semantic representation. We do this by decomposing the task into an ontologycrowd-relevance workflow, consisting of first representing the original text in a low-dimensional ontology, then crowdsourcing candidate question templates aligned w...

Ahead of the imminent start of the industrial exploitation of deep sea resources, an EU report finds that scientific knowledge and understanding of this environment and its ecosystems still fall short of what would be needed for a sustainable use.

Background: The role of wound drainage after total knee arthroplasty is still considered controversial as althoughclosed drainage systems have been believed to be effective in decreasing the post-operative complications, they couldalso facilitate the bleeding and increase the rate of transfusion and infection. We have conducted the current study tocompare the outcomes superficial subcutaneous, ...
