Abstract Aim To evaluate the management of patients referred to our Surgical Assessment Unit presenting with acute epididymo-orchitis. Concordance local antibiotic guidance, use ultrasound scanning, and microbiological testing were all assessed over a one-year period. Method All adult epididymo-orchitis in 2019 identified retrospectively using ICD-10 codes choice used was compared own guidance....

A compact and practical white-light cross-correlator suitable for fast evaluation of femtosecond optics, in terms of group-delay dispersion, was developed. A 40-W tungsten-halogen lamp was used as a white-light source and the detector selection was made so as to have adequate spectral sensitivity from 600 to 1050 nm, peaked at 800 nm. Group-delay dispersion was obtained, with femtosecond time r...

Abstract The current study reports three different techniques to estimate the distribution of dislocation density at mid thickness 1050 Al alloy. It is well known that strain inhomogeneous through rolled materials, which affects evolution during process deformation. In this study, number dislocations was calculated experimentally using indentation technique in 46.8% cold sheet and result verifi...
