Dysvascular patients account for >80% of major amputations in the US. We sought to determine if early mobilization and discharge disposition decreased post-operative hospital length of stay (PO-LOS) and expedited independent ambulation.

A retrospective review of dysvascular patients undergoing major amputations was performed. Primary…[Read more]

e expressed in percent and not absolute changes. The effects of the Vt challenge can be assessed on PPV, but not on IVCDV, since the diagnostic threshold is too small compared to the reproducibility of this variable.

tients with ARD.We determined whether sheep discriminate among different mineral supplements containing P and Mg and if they modify their selection as a function of the basal diet received. Forty lambs were offered four-way choices among inorganic sources of P and Mg magnesium oxide in its coarse 1) C-MgO and granular 2) MgO forms and magnesium…[Read more]

Alcohol consumption during pregnancy constitutes one of the leading preventable causes of birth defects and neurodevelopmental disorders in the exposed children. Fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEEs), ethyl glucuronide (EtG) and ethyl sulfate (EtS) have been studied as potential biomarkers of alcohol consumption. However, most analytical approaches…[Read more]

A validated targeted survey was sent to Canadian ED physicians and nurses between March 5, 2019 and April 28, 2019.

There were 349 responses, with physicians making…[Read more]

During shelf-life, the bacterial diversity of sanitised leaves was significantly lower than on water-washed leaves. Although sanitisation resulted in a higher initial log reduction in microbial load compared to control (portable tap water), sanitisation did not extend the shelf life of baby spinach (23 d). Sanitised spinach had reduced bacterial…[Read more]

Severe traumatic injuries are a widespread and challenging clinical problem, and yet the factors that drive successful healing and restoration of function are still not well understood. One recently identified risk factor for poor healing outcomes is a dysregulated immune response following injury. In a preclinical model of orthopedic trauma, we…[Read more]

Driving signal reflection on traveling wave electrodes (TWEs) is a critical issue in Mach-Zehnder modulators. Fabrication variation often causes a random variation in the electrode impedance and the signal reflection, which induces modulation characteristics variation. The variation of reflection could be intertwined with the variation of other…[Read more]

The validation results on multiple public datasets show that the proposed model is an effective approach for DT binding affinity prediction and can be quite helpful in drug development process.Brain aging is a natural process characterized by cognitive decline and memory loss. This impairment is related to mitochondrial dysfunction and has…[Read more]
