BACKGROUND This study examined the influence of hyaluronic acid (HA) crosslinking technology on the ultrasound and histologic behavior of HA fillers designed for subcutaneous injection. METHODS One subject received subcutaneous injections of 0.25 ml Cohesive Polydensified Matrix (CPM) and Vycross volumizing HA in tissue scheduled for abdominoplasty by bolus and retrograde fanning techniques. ...

The prevalence of pacemaker patients among the general population and of conducted energy devices (CED) for law enforcement and self-defence is increasing. Consequently, the question whether cardiac pacemaker (CPM) patients are on particular risk becomes increasingly important. The risk of Taser X26 electric interference with implanted CPM has been investigated by numerical simulation at MRI-ba...

A feature common to all forms of chronic inflammatory arthritis, irrespective of the possible underlying cause, is the persistent exudation of large numbers of polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMNL) into synovial fluid. These cells possess potent degradative enzymes and proinflammatory mediators, and their removal is vital to normal inflammatory resolution. A major route of disposal of extravasate...

previous studies show that the north atlantic oscillation (nao) is the dominant mode of variability in the northern hemisphere winter with marked climatic effects on its downstream regions. in this article the effects of some important forcing terms in the time tendency equation of the eddy kinetic energy (eke) in critical positive months (cpm) and critical negative months (cnm) of the nao are ...

The continuous phase property of Continuous Phase Modulation (CPM) makes it possible to define spectrally efficient digital modulation schemes with a narrow spectral main lobe and small spectral side lobes by using a small modulation index, a non-binary alphabet size and a smooth phase pulse [1]. The constant envelope property of CPM also allows the use of non-linear amplifiers, which have lowe...

Monoclonal antibody (MoAb) M27 was generated after immunization of mice with the human B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia cell line Pre-ALP. Under reducing conditions, MoAb M27 precipitated a 60-kD surface-membrane molecule from Pre-ALP cells. Expression cloning of Pre-ALP cDNA showed that M27 recognizes carboxypeptidase M (CPM), a cell-surface, zinc-dependent protease known to cleave off b...

BACKGROUND The size of congenital pulmonary malformation (CPM) in infants might interfere with the feasibility of thoracoscopic resection. This study was undertaken to evaluate the impact of the size of CPM on the applicability of video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) in infants. METHODS Twenty-two infants were operated on for CPM from November 2000 to June 2009. The intra- and postoperative...

Abstract This research conducted in one construction company Indonesia, the was facing several problems, many projects that already ended have delays. Overdue payment of can reach Rp 252.544.148.-. For calculating late save researcher using Critical Path Method (CPM)-Crashing. CPM-Crashing method accelerate project duration by increase resource budget, so doesn’t need to pay overdue payment. Th...

The coset pattern matrix (CPM) is formally defined as an elaborate characterization of the aliasing patterns of a fractional factorial design. The possibility of using CPM to check design isomorphism is investigated. Despite containing much information about effect aliasing, the CPM fails to determine a design uniquely. We report and discuss small nonisomorphic designs that have equivalent cose...

Pre-trained Language Models (PLMs) have proven to be beneficial for various downstream NLP tasks. Recently, GPT-3, with 175 billion parameters and 570 GB training data, drew a lot of attention due the capacity few-shot (even zero-shot) learning. However, applying GPT-3 address Chinese tasks is still challenging, as corpus primarily English, are not publicly available. In this technical report, ...
