The sudden outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has profoundly altered the daily lives of the population with dramatic effects caused not only by the health risks of the coronavirus, but also by its psychological and social impact in large sectors of the worldwide population. The present study adapted the COVID-19 Peritraumatic Distress Index (CPDI)…Read more

Three different composites were produced, based on zinc oxide and biochar (ZnO/biochar), varying the type of biomass (Salvinia molesta SM; exhausted husk of black wattle EH; and sugarcane bagasse SB), with pyrolysis under mild conditions at 350 and 450 °C. Evaluation was made of the capacities of the composites for photocatalytic degradation of su…Read more

reduced access for patients but care continued for a subset of patients during the Ebola epidemic.

In an active conflict setting, we demonstrated that non-communicable disease care can be well-organized through clinical training and cohort analysis, and adherence can be addressed using patient-held cards and monitoring by community health…Read more

OBJECTIVE To evaluate potential associations between concentrations of antimüllerian hormone (AMH) and T as well as the LH/FSH ratio and the unbiased precise ovarian volume obtained after unilateral ovariectomy. DESIGN Cohort study. SETTING University hospital. PATIENT(S) A total of 765 patients having one ovary surgically removed for fertility…Read more

RESULTS Twenty-eight DBD, 18 double (64.3%) and 10 single (35.7%), were performed; 7 DCD, 3 double (42.8%) and 4 single (57.2%), were performed. By comparing single and double KTX, no statistically significant difference was found. We recorded 7 DGFs (25%) in DBD and 1 (14.3%) in the DCD group (P > .99) and no PNF. No graft was lost during the…Read more

Phaco and I/A times also reduced significantly (-19% and -37%, respectively, p<0.02).

Nitinol microfilament nuclear disassembly can reduce total phaco energy and time during cataract surgery, particularly in severe cataracts.

22 (95% CI = 2.59-6.89) greater odds of being managed at, rather than outside, a HCF and 2.17 (1.42-3.31) greater odds of critical care unit admission. Although e-cigarette cases, compared to plant form cases, had lower odds of being managed at a HCF, HCF-managed e-cigarette cases had 3.43 greater odds (95% CI = 1.08-10.88) of critical care unit…Read more

Similarly, beta cell function can be associated with raised pro-insulin levels or otherwise.Inferior vena caval (IVC) injuries are uncommon and challenging to treat. Less than 5% of patients with penetrating abdominal trauma and less than 0.5% of patients with blunt abdominal trauma have this injury. Patient can present with intraperitoneal…Read more

The palm oil industry produces liquid waste called POME (palm oil mill effluent). POME is stated as one of the wastes that are difficult to handle because of its large production and ineffective treatment. It will disturb the ecosystem with a high organic matter content if the waste is disposed directly into the environment. The authorities have…Read more
