Operating parameters and membrane characteristics strongly affect the performance of electrodialysis reversal systems. The most impactful factors are applied voltage, flow rate, temperature, initial feed composition, and ion exchange membrane characteristics; the pH of the feed also has an effect, although to a lesser extent. To determine more precisely how all of these factors impact performan...

Abstract Introduction Reversal of ileostomy is usually last step following major surgery. For patient this quite significant procedure, and the outcome vital. Not only they achieve continuity GI tract again, but can live without stoma. Providing them with skin closure that results in minimal scaring improve satisfaction cosmetic Method I have designed questionnaire over 2 hospital sites. One pe...

Aim. A current overview of non-pharmacological and drug-based approaches to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) combined with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). Key points. NAFLD is associated an increased cardiovascular risk (due association “metabolic syndrome”) the risks cirrhosis hepatocellular carcinoma. Macro- microvascular complications in T2D comorbidity entail a higher overall morta...

introduction: the medical applications of ultrasound on human brain are highly limited by the phase and amplitude aberrations induced by the heterogeneities of the skull. however, it has been shown that time reversing coupled with amplitude compensation can overcome these aberrations. in this work, a model for 2d simulation of the time reversal mirror technique is proposed to study the possibil...

PURPOSE The available clinical data on target-specific oral anticoagulant (TSOAC) reversal agents that are currently in development or have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) are reviewed. SUMMARY The development of TSOACs such as dabigatran, rivaroxaban, edoxaban, and apixaban has presented benefits and new challenges. One of the main challenges associated with the use o...

Der Beitrag stellt auf Basis einer ersten empirischen Untersuchung den Status Quo des Geschäftsprozessmanagements (GPM) in der kommunalen Wirtschaftsförderung dar. Obwohl GPM in der öffentlichen Verwaltung ein Instrument von wachsender Bedeutung darstellt, wurde der Bereich kommunaler Selbstverwaltung hierzu bislang wissenschaftlich nicht evaluiert. Die vorliegende qualitative Voruntersuchung b...

In this paper we show how the abstract behaviours of higherorder systems can be modelled as final coalgebras of suitable behavioural functors. These functors have the challenging peculiarity to be circularly defined with their own final coalgebra. Our main contribution is a general construction for defining these functors, solving this circularity which is the essence of higher-order behaviours...

SUMMARY We present a new solution to the tree drawing problem that integrates an excellent tree drawing algorithm into one of the best text processing systems available. More precisely, we present a T E X macro package called TreeT E X that produces drawings of trees from a purely logical description. Our approach has three advantages: labels for nodes can be handled in a reasonable way; portin...

BACKGROUND Establishment of early oral nutrition after surgery is associated with a decrease in morbidity and mortality. The following studies were undertaken to determine how surgery influences food-reinforced behavior in rats and to determine the relevance of afferent input from the incision site on this behavior. METHODS Rats were trained to press a lever for food pellets to assess the eff...

This study discusses the various procedures and issues involved in acquisition of microelectrode recordings (MER) signals subthalamic nucleus stimulations with induced deep brain stimulation electrodes very rigorously. Bellicose-invasive physiological detections through methods sub cortical physio logical detections, electrical micro electrode recordings, stereo-tactic technique, macro-stimulat...
