Sudden cardiac death is a leading cause of death in chronic renal failure patients. We present a case of refractory ventricular fibrillation with successful prolonged resuscitation (> 1 hour) without neurological sequel in an outpatient dialysis centre. Implantation of a cardioverter-defibrillator is able to identify patients as dialysis-sensitive. Smoother potassium removal during hemodialysis...

one hundred female markhoz goats (42±5 kg) were used to investigate the ‘male effect’ on estrous synchronization and reproductive characteristics of female goat during the breeding season. this was carried out in three separate experiments. in the first experiment, forty female goats were used in 4 groups with different distance from the male goats (i.e. source of pheromone secretion); a1 (1 me...

manganese is one of the significant raw materials for various industries and most difficult element to remove from water because of its high solubility. the treatment of mn (ii) contained wastewater is stringent for environmental preservations. in the present study adsorption of mn2+ on zero-valent iron nanoparticles synthesized by chemical reduction process and modified with phosphate coating ...

This paper considers an approach to improving outcomes for neurosurgery patients by enhancing intraoperative navigation and guidance. Currently, intraoperative navigation systems do not accurately account for brain shift or tissue resection. We describe how preoperative images can be incrementally updated to take into account any type of brain tissue deformation that may occur during surgery, a...

published data on the effects of ruminal bolus on the number of ovulatory follicles in ewes does not exist. the present study determined the effects of a ruminal bolus on trace element status, follicular dynamics and reproductive performance in ewes. eighty afshari cycling ewes were synchronized during breeding season using cidr for 14 days and assigned to 4 groups (n=20); group 1 received a si...
