BACKGROUND The use of smartphones with touch screens has become a norm for healthcare professionals (HCP). The risk of smart screen contamination has been proven, and guidelines are available to deal with possible contamination. A large number of smartphone users apply plastic or glass screen protectors onto their mobile phone screens to prevent scratches. However, these materials are not scrat...

Bacillus Calmette-Guërin (BCG) has been traditionally used as a vaccine against tuberculosis. Further, intravesical administration of BCG has been shown to be effective in treating bladder cancer. Although BCG contains a live attenuated strain of Mycobacterium bovis, complications such as M. bovis BCG infection caused by BCG administration are extremely rare. Here, we report a case of BCG infec...

This communication sets an evaluation framework and performs a comparative analysis of the UltraSPARC-III and the IA-64 processor architectures. It starts with an overview of a pure RISC architecture and the new EPIC technology. It then presents the unique combination of innovative features that both manufacturers claim explicit parallelism, predication and speculative loading – and the goals f...

Neurons in area MT of primate visual cortex encode the velocity of moving objects. We present a model of how MT cells aggregate responses from V1 to form such a velocity representation. Two diierent sets of units, with local receptive elds, receive inputs from motion energy lters. One set of units forms estimates of local motion, while the second set computes the utility of these estimates. Out...
