Thirteen nutritional parameters viz body mass index (BMI), mid arm circumference (MAC), mid calf circumference (MCC), triceps skin fold thickness (TST), abdominal skin fold thickness (ASFT), abdominal girth at umbilicus (AG U), haemoglobin (Hb), total leucocytes count (WBC), absolute lymphocyte count (ALC), serum proteins (Prot.), serum albumin (AIb), serum total iron binding capacity (TIBC) an...

 Abstract Background: Primary hyperparathyroidism is autonomous production of parathyroid hormone. After removal of adenoma, one of the surgeons concern is postoperative hypocalcaemia. There is no precise method to determine if patients have hypocalcaemia postoperatively. The purpose of this study was to determine the relation between parathyroid adenoma weights, postoperative serum calcium and...

conclusions intravenous magnesium reduces postoperative ileus, postoperative severe pain and intra/post operative analgesic requirements in patients after major gi surgery. no side effects of magnesium in these doses were seen, so it seems to be beneficial along with routine general anesthesia in major gi surgeries. patients and methods a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled study was p...

Why use op amps for RF design? Traditional RF design techniques using discrete transistors have been practiced successfully for decades. RF designers who are comfortable with things “as-is” will scrutinize introduction of a new design technique using op amps. The cost of high-speed op amps, in particular, will raise eyebrows. Why replace a transistor that costs a few cents with a component that...

 Background: Today, early diagnosis of upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract malignancies and their surgical resection is becoming more feasible. One of the important side effects in upper GI tract malignancies is malnutrition which has direct relationship with postoperative complications. Nonetheless, there is no easy regimen of nutrition for these patients especially for the first week after oper...
