Objective: This paper discusses the various surgical techniques and outcomes associated with management of buried penis syndrome. Methods: Presented is the case of a 49-year-old man with morbid obesity, leading to massive panniculus and buried penis. We review our technique for reconstruction of the buried penis and treatment of the overlying large panniculus. Literature search was conducted to...

investigating the parameters influencing the behavior of buried pipelines under dynamic loading is of great importance. in this study the soil structure interaction of the pipelines with the surrounding soil was addressed using shaking table tests. wave propagation along the soil layers was also included in the study. the semi infinite nature of the field was simulated using a laminar shear box...

This paper presents the results of a study exploring potential magnetic-susceptibility and phosphate soil analyses to locate characterize buried Neolithic settlements in Thessaly, Greece. Using preliminary large-area magnetometer surveys, samples were collected at three well-known sites along exploratory lines augers targeting locations possible features interest, including habitational structu...

Purpose Fractures of the lateral condyle of the humerus in children are a common injury. If displaced or unstable they may require surgical reduction and fixation with Kirschner wires (K-wires). K-wires are placed using either an open or closed technique. The decision to bury or leave the ends extending through the skin is surgeon-dependent and based on factors including post-operative infectio...

Lys-66 and Glu-66, buried in the hydrophobic interior of staphylococcal nuclease by mutagenesis, titrate with pK(a) values of 5.7 and 8.8, respectively (Dwyer et al., Biophys. J. 79:1610-1620; García-Moreno E. et al., Biophys. Chem. 64:211-224). Continuum calculations with static structures reproduced the pK(a) values when the protein interior was treated with a dielectric constant (epsilon(in)...

Palaeosols in the Granada Basin (SE Spain) have been studied in two different situations: surface soils on geomorphically stable surfaces since the Early Pleistocene with younger pedogenic overprinting and buried soils on unstable surfaces from the Middle–Late Pleistocene on which successive erosional–depositional episodes have alternated with pedogenic episodes. For each soil clay and iron acc...
