This study aimed to analyze the effect of patient positions on the lordosis and scoliosis of patients with degenerative lumbar scoliosis (DLS).Seventy-seven patients with DLS were retrospectively analyzed. We measured lordosis and Cobb's angle on preoperative upright x-rays and magnetic resonance imagings in supine position. The lordosis and scoliosis of surgical segments in intraoperative pron...

Road network are the life line for the movement of people and freight and plays an important role in the development of a region but road accidents cause heavy burden on financial and social setup of an economy. According to a WHO report, road accidents will become the fifth leading cause of death by 2030. Despite lot of effort from various agencies in curbing traffic accidents, they are on the...

-Retrospectively, plaque rupture is often colocalized with inflammation of the cap and shoulder of the atherosclerotic plaque. Local inflammation is therefore considered a potential marker for plaque vulnerability. However, high specificity of inflammation for plaque rupture is a requisite for application of inflammation markers to detect rupture-prone lesions. The objective of the present stud...

Pavement rehabilitation could affect the accident severity index (ASI) since restoration measures means more safety for road users. No research or project has been carried out to identify hazard points to build a linear model based on crash severity index. One of the very popular accident severity index models used in all countries is based on linear models to rehabilitate pavements and this pa...

STUDY DESIGN Case-control study comparing sagittal plane segmental motion in women (n = 34) with chronic whiplash-associated disorders, Grades I-II, with women (n = 35) with chronic insidious onset neck pain and with a normal database of sagittal plane rotational and translational motion. OBJECTIVE To reveal whether women with chronic whiplash-associated disorders, Grades I-II, demonstrate ev...

We consider the problem of digitalizing Euclidean line segments from R to Z. Christ et al. (DCG, 2012) showed how to construct a set of consistent digital segment (CDS) for d = 2: a collection of segments connecting any two points in Z2 that satisfies the natural extension of the Euclidean axioms to Z. In this paper we study the construction of CDSs in higher dimensions. We show that any total ...

Accidents can occur due to several factor such as road, environmental and human factors. Jelutung peak red light intersection is a place that prone accidents conflicts between vehicles other or pedestrians. The four-peak has fairly large input output capacity, high density alternately in each lane during hours. This study aim analyze traffic examine the problems damage occurred at of Jl. Hayam ...

Background: Motorcyclists are among the most vulnerable groups of road accident victims, who are prone to a growingmortality rate due to the constant rise in the number of accidents. This study was performed to investigate the injurypatterns among motorcyclist trauma patients admitted to Kamyab Hospital, the largest trauma center affiliated withMashhad Univercity of Medical Sc...

There were 469 unnatural deaths among the Sheffield child population between 1947 and 1979, 226 of which were caused by traffic accidents. The annual incidence of these fatal traffic accidents has risen steadily since the early 1960s with boys being consistently more vulnerable. Fatal accidents were disproportionately higher among socially deprived families and in poorer areas of the city. The ...

Hyphenating High Temperature High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HT-HPLC) with High Temperature Size Exclusion Chromatography (HT-SEC) (High Temperature Two Dimensional Liquid Chromatography (HT-HPLC x HT-SEC or HT 2D-LC)) leads to an isocratic elution in the second dimension, which in turn enables to use IR detector (quantitative detection) for monitoring the eluting polymers. Experimental...
