Given a knowledge representation and reasoning (KRR) system, this paper introduces the concept of reconsideration — where past belief change operations can be reconsidered. Specifically, beliefs retracted during past revisions might be returned to the belief base. . . and, conversely, base beliefs retained during previous revisions might be lost. We show the need for reconsideration in both ide...

Achieving optimal soft tissue balance intraoperatively is a critical element for a successful outcome after total knee arthroplasty. Although advances in navigation have improved the incidence of angular outliers, spatial distance measurements do not quantify soft tissue stability or degrees of ligament tension. Revisions caused by instability, malrotation, and malalignment still constitute up ...

Background: Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS) is a connective tissue disorder with cutaneous manifestations including poor wound healing and atrophic scar formation. There evidence supporting the use of topical vitamin C laser for revisions, but limited reports using in revisions patients hEDS. Objective: To present case where applied post-laser treatment resulted improved aesthetic out...

Error-flagging support provided during tests leads to higher scores, as reported in literature. Although many beneficial factors contribute to higher scores, one undesirable contributing factor is that students abuse error-flagging feedback to find the correct answer through trial and error even when the test is not multiple-choice in nature. A limit can be placed on the number of revisions all...

At its meeting in Vancouver, BC, Canada, in May 1994, the Executive Council of International Society for the Study of Dissociation (ISSD) adopted the Guidelines for Treating Dissociative Identity Disorder (Multiple Personality Disorder) in Adults (1994). The Guidelines presented a broad outline of what to date was considered to be effective treatment for Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID). Ho...

BACKGROUND The present study was designed to clarify which underlying indications can be currently considered the main reasons for failure after total knee arthroplasty as a function of time. METHODS We conducted a retrospective study that included all first revisions of total knee replacements during 2005 to 2010 at two high-volume arthroplasty centers. A revision was defined as the replacem...

Background Persistent instability after hip revision is a serious problem. Our aim was to analyze surgical and patient-related risk factors for both new dislocation re-revision first-time due dislocation. Methods We included patients with primary THA osteoarthritis registered in the Danish Hip Arthroplasty Register (DHR) from 1996 2016. identified dislocations National Patient re-revisions DHR....
