background: management of intracranial aneurysms has made debates about the best treatment modality in recent years. the aim of this study was to compare the interventional outcomes between two groups of patients, one treated with endovascular coiling and the other treated with surgical clipping. methods: this prospective study included 48 patients with intracranial aneurysms who underwent endo...

conclusions although propofol remains a standard agent for such types of surgeries, lidocaine proved equally effective and coupled with its low cost, minimal side effects and omission of other hypnotic agents was a plausible induction agent and a maintenance drug in the selected cases. case presentation lidocaine was applied as the sole anaesthetic for induction and maintenance during aneurysm ...

The objective of this study was to determine the chronology of changes in blood pressure in renalhypertension induced by solid plexiglass clips in rats. Saw blades with the thickness of 0.21-0.22 mm wereused to make clips sized 4 × 2 × 2 mm from a piece of 2-mm thick plexiglass. Rats were subjected to shamoperation or left renal arterial clipping, and 1, 2, 3 and 4 weeks later blood pressure, a...

Alntract: Temporary Occlusion of the Middle Cerebral Artery in the Monkey: Clinical and Pathological Observations • The right middle cerebral artery (MCA) was exposed in monkeys via a retro-orbital microsurgical approach. In 43 animals a temporary occlusive clip was placed on the MCA origin for one to 24 hours. In 20 animals, the origin of the MCA was permanently occluded. Clinical evaluation o...

In this paper, we propose a low complexity clipping method to reduce the peak power of OFDM signals. The proposed clipping method exploits the conventional square clipping, which clips signal according to the amplitude in I/Q-channels separately, to avoid obtaining a real amplitude of each sample which costs relatively high computational complexities. By combining the square clipping and phase ...

one method of treating ruptured anterior communicating aneurysms is presented. this permits early clipping through a bifrontal flap. key branches of the circle of willis are temporarily occluded by special removable clips before exposing and permanently clipping the aneurysm. this requires the use of hypothermia at 28'0. and other technical aids described. the risk of a fatal recurrent hemorrha...

We present an algorithm for end to end declipping, which includes clipping detection and the replacement of clipped samples. To detect regions of clipping, we analyze the signal’s amplitude histogram and the shape of the signal in the time-domain. The sample replacement algorithm uses a two-pass approach: short regions of clipping are replaced in the time-domain and long regions of clipping are...

Clipping (i.e., harvesting aboveground plant biomass) is common in agriculture and for bioenergy production. However, microbial responses to clipping in the context of climate warming are poorly understood. We investigated the interactive effects of grassland warming and clipping on soil properties and plant and microbial communities, in particular, on microbial functional genes. Clipping alone...
