Abstract BACKGROUND Stroke is common in patients with malignancy, but cancer treatment have contraindications to intravenous (IV) tissue plasminogen activator (tPA). Advancements endovascular therapy (EVT) has expanded options for acute stroke management . Memorial Sloan Kettering (MSK) a center without public emergency room. Acute occurs inpatient or urgent care (UCC). We determined need rapid...

[Purpose] This study investigated and compared the discomfort experienced during car egress with the car door opened at different angles and muscle activation in drivers with hemiplegia following stroke and non-disabled drivers. [Subjects and Methods] The participants were five drivers with hemiplegia and five non-disabled drivers. The discomfort experienced during car egress was measured using...

Background: Endovascular therapy within an appropriate time has been shown to improve neurological outcomes in patients with ischemic stroke. A hybrid emergency room is unit that can be used for resuscitation, computed tomography (CT), surgery, and angiography. Therefore, immediate CT endovascular performed without transfer other rooms. We aimed evaluate the possibility of using a shorten strok...

We have tried and developed a whiteboard-type message board on the network and developed a message board system on WWW for asynchronous communication, which provides users with simple tools for drawing. On this board, any message can be written by hand, making use of mouse and tablets. Letters are coded as a collection of lines. We call this type of system an "on-door" communication system, and...

PERSONNEL HAZARDS FROM MEDICAL ELECTRON ACCELERATOR PHOTONEUTRONS" R. C. McCall, T. M. Jenkins, R. A. Shore and P. D. LaRiviere+ Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, CA, U.S.A. and Varian Associates? INTRODUCTION For medical accelerators, neutron penetration through the room entry door is the major personnel hazard. Most therapy accelerator rooms are designed with at least a rudimentary maze to ...

A study was undertaken to examine the effect of lining high-energy linear accelerator mazes with neutron-moderating materials in order to reduce scattered neutron dose at the accelerator room door. Polyethylene alone reduced neutron dose by no more than 27% and did not significantly reduce gamma ray dose. Polyethylene combined with flexboron panels reduced neutron dose by 50% at most, reducing ...

BACKGROUND Expansive open-door laminoplasty is widely accepted as a reliable procedure for cervical myelopathy. However, one acknowledged complication is spring-back complication or closure of the door which may result in restenosis of cervical canal and neurologic deterioration. The study aimed for addressing our cervical open-door laminoplasty technique with sutures and bone grafts and subseq...

The scene is a large room. There are two laptop computers and a printer on a table between piles of printouts of lists and photocopies of maps downloaded from "Yahoo". Two cell phones can also be seen. The two computer screens have an Access file open with names, addresses, more names and credits and debits in English. Three men sit at the table; two of them are unshaven and blurry-eyed as if t...

popular culture of the 1990s came, of course, from television: Jerry Seinfeld’s apartment door bursting open, with Kramer grasping the doorknob and sliding into the room as if the door were dragging him by its own sheer will. A manic force was thrust, as if from some other cosmic sphere, into the relatively calm, if absurd, world of Jerry Seinfeld. This is a comic rhythm we know well from more ...

In previous research 2-year-olds have failed to show knowledge of solidity in a search task in which a ball rolled behind a screen and was stopped by a barrier. The screen had four doors and the barrier was visible above the door hiding the ball. To establish what cues 2-year-olds might be using, precise point-of-gaze measures were taken during the hiding event. A transparent screen with opaque...
