Referring patients for electrolysis.

Rationale for referring class II patients for early orthodontic treatment.

The tendency of indicating early treatment (before growth spurt) when dealing with Angle Class II cases has been noticed, although there is no definite scientific evidence to justify such decision. The aim of this study was to identify the advantages and disadvantages to this approach and which appliances are used for this purpose. For that purpose, a questionnaire containing full records of a ...

Referring patients for deep brain stimulation: an improving practice.

BACKGROUND Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a recent treatment modality. Few studies have examined referral practices for DBS. OBJECTIVE To review referral patterns to a large movement disorders center to investigate the current level of knowledge surrounding DBS candidacy. DESIGN Retrospective analysis. SETTING Tertiary care medical center. PATIENTS Reviewed were 197 medical records of ...

Molten Carbonate Fuel Cells for Electrolysis

The molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) has evolved to current megawatt-scale commercial power plants. When using the fuel cell for electrolysis (MCEC), it provides a promising option for producing fuel gases such as hydrogen, via water electrolysis, and syngas, via co-electrolysis of water and carbon dioxide. The molten carbonate cell can thereby operate reversibly as a dual energy converter for...

Electrolysis-reducing electrodes for electrokinetic devices.

Direct current electrokinetic systems generally require Faradaic reactions to occur at a pair of electrodes to maintain an electric field in an electrolyte connecting them. The vast majority of such systems, e.g. electrophoretic separations (capillary electrophoresis) or electroosmotic pumps (EOPs), employ electrolysis of the solvent in these reactions. In many cases, the electrolytic products,...
