Cough etiquette and respiratory hygiene are forms of source control encouraged to prevent the spread of respiratory infection. The use of surgical masks as a means of source control has not been quantified in terms of reducing exposure to others. We designed an in vitro model using various facepieces to assess their contribution to exposure reduction when worn at the infectious source (Source) ...

Analysis of the work, which considered mathematical modeling melting process in various industries, currently does not pay attention to processes heating and hydrocarbon mixtures, such as vaseline, paraffin, fats, lanolin others. The issue optimization processes, calculations necessary parameters (speed depth thermal front penetration, etc.) equipment, avoidance repetition for each mixture expe...

Total flavonoids concentration were estimated high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). highest recorded ethanol extract. Acute inflammation laboratory animals (rabbits) injecting 0.1mL 2.5% formalin inside the incision. Aqueous seeds an anti-inflammatory he...

Skin wound healing is a natural and intricate process that takes place after injury, involving different sequential phases such as hemostasis, inflammatory phase, proliferative phase, and remodeling that are associated with complex biochemical events. The interruption or failure of wound healing leads to chronic nonhealing wounds or fibrosis-associated diseases constituting a major health probl...

In the past, the presence of a large sexual organ was regarded as a symbol of strong body composition, especially with regard to sexuality. Foreign body injection into the penis for the purpose of augmenting the penile contour used to be culturally popular in some primitive communities although this practice became less fashionable after the early 1900s. The practice has continued in some parts...

BACKGROUND Current use of Integra, the collagen-based dermal analogue, requires a two-step grafting procedure to achieve wound closure with an "ultrathin" autograft. METHODS A one-step operative procedure of meshed composite skin graft (MCSG) using Integra as a dermal template for a meshed split thickness autograft was developed in rats. The silicon layer of Integra was removed, the resulting...
