The regular PIN-entry method has been still the most common of authentication for systems and networks. However, PINs are easy to be captured through various attacks, including shoulder-surfing, video-recording, spyware. This could attributed involuntary nature entering original PIN during authentication. In this paper, we employ an indirect input that utilizes addition mod 10 a mini-challenge ...

introduction: foreign body aspiration (fba) represents a life-threatening emergency .it occurs primarily in children below 3 years. generally, the most common aspirated fb is organic material such as nuts or beans. sharp foreign bodies (fbs) are of particular concern to the attending clinician, because of their potential to perforate the air passage and cause possible complications. here in, we...

We have recently demonstrated that in rats with 5/6 nephrectomy (5/6 Nx), renal cortical and inner medullary neuronal NOS (nNOS) expression is downregulated, associated with decreased urinary excretion of nitric oxide (NO) products. Recently, a novel 89-amino acid protein [protein inhibitor of nNOS (PIN)] was isolated from rat brain and shown to inhibit nNOS activity. The present studies locali...

In friction stir welding frictional heat is generated by the rotating tool, sliding over the stationary plate along the weld centre. Tool being the only source of heat producing member, its geometrical design influences the heat generation rate. In this present work, effects of variation in tool shoulder and tool pin taper angles on thermal history during joining are analysed. Tools with triang...

Pin site infections are a common complication of external fixation that places a significant burden on the patient and healthcare system. Such infections increase the number of clinic visits required during a patient's course of treatment, can result in the need for additional treatment including antibiotics and surgery, and most importantly can compromise patient outcomes should osteomyelitis ...

Directional transport of auxin is essential for plant development, with PIN auxin transport proteins representing an integral part of the machinery that controls hormone distribution. However, unlike the rapidly emerging framework of molecular determinants regulating PIN protein abundance and subcellular localization, insights into mechanisms controlling PIN transcription are still limited. Her...

Penile intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN) is a clinically well known condition. However, its diagnosis is often difficult. We present four cases of PIN, seen in our department. Various histological patterns ranging from PIN I to PIN III were noted in these cases.

The purpose of this study was to test and compare external fixator construct stiffness using pin-to-bar clamps or multipin clamps across 2 external fixation systems. Constructs were tested with 8-mm and 11-mm-diameter bar systems and pin-to-bar or multipin clamps. Three construct designs were tested: construct 1 with a single crossbar and pin-to-bar clamps, construct 2 with 2 crossbars and pin-...

Pin-tract infection (PTI) is the most commonly expected problem, or even an almost inevitable complication, when using external fixation. Left unteated, PTI will progress unavoidably, lead to mechanical pin loosening, and ultimately cause instability of the external fixator pin-bone construct. Thus, PTI remains a clinical challenge, specifically in cases of limb lengthening or deformity correct...
