Abstract Introduction Inflatable penile prosthesis reservoir herniation or migration may occur with space of Retzius submuscular placement. The dangers high placement include bowel bladder perforation (from blind instrument passage) and unintentional peritoneal stretching small opening filling). Even under direct vision placement, reservoirs can ultimately reside into the scrotum, retroperitone...

The GEM (Galactic Emission Mapping) project is an international collaboration established with the aim of surveying the full sky at long wavelengths with a multi-frequency radio telescope. A total of 745 hours of observation at 408 MHz were completed from an Equatorial site in Colombia. The observations cover the celestial band 0 < α < 24, and −24◦ 22′ < δ < +35◦ 37′. Preliminary results of thi...

Analysis and design of structural systems always requires the treatment of uncertainties by using statistical and probabilistic concepts so this can be done in a rational way. It is shown that traditional, deterministic concepts can be easily extended to account for uncertainties. The so-called Monte Carlo Simulation procedures are the key for these developments. By this method, deterministic m...

Stimulation of the nucleus magnocellularis (NMC) of the medulla produces changes in locomotion, muscle tone, heart rate, and blood pressure. Glutamatergic input has been found to modulate muscle tone, whereas cholinergic input has been found to mediate cardiovascular changes produced by stimulation of the NMC. The current study was designed to identify the brainstem afferents to NMC by using re...

The current method for determination of modulus of elasticity (MOE) in Europe, EN 408, does not specific enough instructions to obtain comparable results between institutes. There are different interpretations especially regarding the placements of deflection yokes and transducers and also regarding the evaluation of test results. This paper proposes a modified test method, similar to the one i...
