Abstract Background Localised renal cell carcinoma is treated with radical nephrectomy (RN) or partial nephrectomy (PN). Nephron-sparing PN increases preservation of renal function, reducing incidence of end stage renal ...

High-voltage cable systems are critical components of power transmission networks, where partial discharge (PD) can cause insulation degradation and severe operational failures. Accurate detection and reliable identifica...

Horner’s syndrome is a rare complication of thyroid surgery and is most commonly reported as a complication associated with lateral neck dissection. We present the case of a 46-year-old woman who developed a partial Ho...

Recently, in the image super-resolution (SR) domain, Transformers have outperformed Convolution Neural Networks (CNNs) with reduced computational complexity and parameters by modeling long-range dependencies input-depend...

Currently, bio-transformer oil (BTO) is in high demand due to the increasing demand for electrical power and environmental policy considerations. Hence, this research aimed to produce BTO with high oxidation tolerance vi...

In many statistical applications, composite variables are constructed to reduce the number of variables and improve the performances of statistical analyses of these variables, especially when some of the variables are h...

Exfoliative toxins causes staphylococcal scalded skin syndrolne rvhich was characterized by a specific lntraepidermal separation of the skin layers. We describe here the extraction of the ETs from staphylococcus aureu...

Functionalizacion of epoxy-based networks by the preferential surface enrichment of perfluorinated tails to achieve hydrophobic surface is described. The selected fluorinated epoxies (FE) were: 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,...

Abstract Helicenes, composed of ortho-fused benzene rings, possess a spring-like π-backbone, enabling electron delocalization through both bonds and space. Theoretical predictions suggest that mechanical stretching or c...

Sleep loss decreases working memory (WM) performance in young adults. The mechanisms that regulate WM performance during sleep loss are integrative and likely depend on the duration of perturbed sleep. The aim of this re...

IntroductionFamilial partial lipodystrophy (FPL) is a rare condition related to partial deficiency of adipose tissue and consequent insulin resistance resulting in metabolic alterations. Although type 2 diabetes mellitus...

IntroductionTumor complexity scoring supports preoperative planning for robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN), but evidence in larger tumors is limited. We evaluated whether PADUA and RENAL nephrometry scores are ass...

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar as atitudes de estudantes de Psicologia em relação a estatística, via modelo de créditos parciais da TRI, e suas relações com a autopercepção e desempenho em estatística. Um...

Background: Connecting an osseointegrated implant and a natural tooth is a treatment alternative for partially edentulous patients in some clinical situations. The main issue of a connected tooth-implant system is derive...

Abstract Non-penetration laser welding of lap joints in austenitic stainless steel sheets is commonly preferred in fields where the surface quality is of utmost importance. However, the application of non-penetration wel...

Abstract The increase in the scale and voltage level of urban power grids has made cable lines the main way of power transmission. However, their insulation systems are prone to Partial Discharge (PD) caused by local def...

Transitional cell carcinoma (TCC), or urothelial carcinoma, is the most common malignant tumor of the canine urinary bladder or urethra, often causing urinary obstruction. While chemotherapy is generally considered as pr...

ABSTRACT This study describes a case of a dog with a lacerated penile tear treated with partial penectomy followed by successful semen collections for artificial insemination. A 1.5-year-old Jack Russel Terrier with norm...

Introduction and aims: Conventional removable partial denture (RPD) clasp fabrication with wrought wire depends on operator skill, limiting efficiency and reproducibility. This study compared robotically and manually ben...

Since the coefficients of variation of soil properties vary in a large range, the real reliability index for the soil slope designed using the partial factor method also fluctuates in a range. This drawback limits the ap...

Abstract In this study, physicochemical and antioxidant properties, and storage stability (1, 3, and 7 days) of pork patties added with edible insect powders (EIP) of four species (Larvae of Tenenbrio molitor, Protaetia ...

Twist phase is a nontrivial second-order phase that only exists in a partially coherent beam. Such twist phase endows the partially coherent beam with orbital angular momentum (OAM) and has unique applications such as in...

The objective of this study was to obtain estimates of genetic and phenotypic parameters for egg mass of meat quails and also to propose an optimal age for selection of birds through the egg mass. The data used in this s...

Interlocking concrete pavers (ICPs) require substantial cement consumption, resulting in considerable embodied carbon emissions, while the regional availability of conventional supplementary cementitious materials is bec...
