INTRODUCTION The transpalatal arch (TPA) can be used as an adjunct during orthodontic treatment to help control the movement of the maxillary first molars in 3 dimensions, including producing molar rotation and uprighting, maintaining transverse dimensions posteriorly during treatment, and maintaining leeway spaces during the transition of the dentition. The purpose of this retrospective cephal...

conclusions due to considerable inter- and intra- heterogeneity among studies performed by other centers such as differences in study project, background, and population features, determining a pharmacotherapy model based on safe implementation of treatments in stroke or sits seem advantageous. results age, time of onset, systolic blood pressure, diabetes, stroke severity, co-morbidities and pr...

Accurate short-term load forecasting is the key to ensuring smooth and efficient power system operation market dispatch planning. However, nonlinear, non-stationary, time series nature of sequences makes difficult. To address these problems, this paper proposes a method (EPT-VMD-TCN-TPA) based on hybrid decomposition sequences, which combines ensemble patch transform (EPT), variational modal (V...

Background and Purpose Several studies are currently evaluating tissue-type plasminogen activator (TPA) as a potential therapy in acute ischemic stroke. The possibility of inducing intracranial hematomas, however, introduces an important concern into ultimate evaluation of risk and benefit. This retrospective analysis sought to identify factors associated with intracranial hematoma formation in...

Background: Thrombolytic therapy is the recommended treatment of acute ischemic stroke. It crucial to evaluate results with recombinant Tissue Plasminogen Activator (r-TPA) in patients Objectives: This study aimed outcomes r-TPA stroke a referral center Iran. Materials & Methods: In this retrospective study, 87 symptoms were examined. They referred Gilan Province, Iran, from June 2016 April...

The purpose of this Community Service (PkM) activity is to increase the understanding graduate candidates Nusa Cendana University (Undana) regarding importance preparing for Academic Potential Test (TPA) as part job search readiness. PkM team from Mathematics Education Study Program, collaborated with head Center Information Services, Job Opportunities and Career Development (LIKKPK), Institute...

BACKGROUND We evaluated assays to measure both total tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) and the three principle forms of tPA in plasma: active tPA, tPA complexed with plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1), and tPA complexed with C1-inhibitor. METHODS Active tPA was measured by use of an indirect amidolytic assay and immunofunctional assays. tPA/PAI-1, tPA/C1-inhibitor, and total tPA ...

OBJECTIVES To describe the experience of a community teaching hospital emergency department (ED) Code Stroke Protocol (CSP) for identifying acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients and treating them with tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) and to compare outcome measures with those achieved in the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) trial. METHODS This study was a retro...
