OBJECTIVE To evaluate the current antimicrobial prophylaxis practices for low-risk patients undergoing transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) or photoselective vaporisation of the prostate (PVP) in comparison with the antimicrobial prophylaxis recommendations of the European Association of Urology (EAU), which have been shown to effectively
RESEARCH ON ADDED INDUCTANCE AND RESISTANCE DURING SPIRAL FERROMAGNETIC WIRE SCANNING WITH MAGNETIC FIELD OF A PARAMETRIC EDDY-CURRENT SENSOR
Criteria for estimation of added inductance and resistance during spiral ferromagnetic wire scanning of single-core power cable armour by means of a parametric electromagnetic converter are proposed.Research into variation of the introduced Activity Equipment criteria in the frequency range from 100 Hz up to 100 kHz for different wire spiral steps
Association Between Diabetes Risk Reduction Diet and Lung Cancer Risk in 98,159 Participants: Results From a Prospective Study
PurposeTo evaluate the association between diabetes risk reduction diet (DRRD) score and the risk of lung cancer in a large population.MethodsData of participants in this study were collected from the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, and Ovarian (PLCO) Cancer Screening Trial.Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated in the C
Extracting Social Information from Chemosensory Cues: Consideration of Several Scenarios and their Functional Implications
Across all sensory modalities, stimuli can vary along multiple dimensions.Efficient extraction of information requires sensitivity to those stimulus dimensions that provide behaviorally relevant information.To derive social information from chemosensory cues, sensory systems must embed information about the relationships between behaviorally releva
Retained Shrapnel from a Blast Injury as a Rare Cause of Secondary Osteoarthritis of the Hip Joint: A Case Report and Review of Literature
Background.Complications related to intra-articular retained shrapnel are rare and primarily depend on the anatomical location and the reaction with the surrounding tissue.Retained bodies causing severe osteoarthritis with Hands bone destruction and limb shortening are extremely rare.We describe a rare occurrence of retained shrapnel, possibly iron
