postcholecystectomy clip migration is rare and can lead to complications such as clip-related biliary stones. most of such incidents have been reported as case reports. this study reviews a case of postcholecystectomy clip migration. it can occur at any time but typically occur at a median of 2 years after cholecystectomy. clinical presentations are similar to those with primary or secondary ch...

PURPOSE To evaluate the feasibility and accuracy of Roentgen stereophotogrammetric analysis (RSA) versus computed tomography (CT) for detecting stent-graft migration in an in vitro pulsatile circulation model and to study the feasibility of a nitinol endovascular clip (NEC) as an aortic wall reference marker for RSA. METHODS An aortic model with stent-graft was constructed and connected to an...

Aims: The aim of this study was to compare the effect of teach-back method and video clip teaching on the sense of coherence of mothers with children suffering from asthma. Materials & Methods: In this field trial study 75 eligible mothers with children suffering from asthma were selected by convenience sampling method, but were randomly divided into three groups of: video clip group, teach-ba...

Nervous system assembly requires the directed migrations of cells and axon growth cones along the dorsoventral and anteroposterior axes. Although guidance mechanisms for dorsoventral migrations are conserved from nematodes to mammals, mechanisms for anteroposterior migrations are unknown. In C. elegans, the gene vab-8, which specifically functions in posteriorly directed migrations, encodes two...

In laparoscopic surgery for colorectal and gastric cancer, it is difficult to locate the tumor in cavity excision. Tumors colon or stomach are blocked by mucous membranes; thus, view from obscured. Therefore, determine location of tumor, a marker can be installed around found using sensor. Until now, most clip-detectors that have been developed detect tumors either cancer. The research on devel...

CLIP-170/Restin belongs to a family of conserved microtubule (MT)-associated proteins, which are important for MT organization and functions. CLIP-170 is a phosphoprotein and phosphorylation is thought to regulate the binding of CLIP-170 to MTs. However, little is known about the kinase(s) involved. In this study, we show that FKBP12-rapamycin-associated protein (FRAP, also called mTOR/RAFT) in...

The assembly of the nervous system in the nematode C. elegans requires the directed migrations of cells and growth comes along the anteroposterior and dorsoventral body axis. We show here that the gene vab-8 is essential for most posteriorly directed migrations of cells and growth cones. Mutations in vab-8 disrupt fourteen of seventeen posteriorly directed migrations, but only two of seventeen ...
