To identify anatomic and physiologic characteristics of children which are different from adults and to explain major patterns and responses of different types of injuries and to apply ATLS principles in management of injured kids and to emphasize on injury prevention to reduce the impact of injury in children. Children have larger head, smaller jaw, shorter, narrower, funnel shaped airway, sof...

background: needlestick injuries (nsis) are among the most important occupational injuries for health care workers (hcws). in iran, the problem of exposure to contaminated blood among nursing personnels has not well documented. the aim of this study was to determine the incidence of needlestick injuries in population of nurses in shahroud imam hossein hospital, northern iran. methods: a self-ad...

The purpose of this study is to understand how countries have leveraged on their economic resilience fight the COVID-19 pandemic. focus a global sample 150 countries. develops health vulnerability index (HVI) and leverages an existing (ERI) provide four main scenarios from which problem statement, namely ‘low HVI-low ERI,’ ‘high HVI-high ERI’ quadrants. Countries that robustly fought pandemic a...

We conducted two experiments (total N = 81) to investigate the basis for the large-scale horizontal-vertical illusion (HVI), which is typically measured as 15%-20% and has previously been linked to the presence of a ground plane. In a preliminary experiment, vertical rods of similar angular extents that were either large (4.5-7.5 m) and far, or small (0.9-1.5 m) and near, were matched to horizo...

Semantic labeling of Human-Vehicle Interactions (HVI) helps in fusion, characterization, and understanding cohesive patterns that when analyzed and reasoned, they may jointly reveal pertinent threats. Various Persistent Surveillance System (PSS) imagery techniques have been proposed in the past for identifying human interactions with various objects in the environment. Understanding of such int...

INTRODUCTION Chronic venous insufficiency (HVI) is manifested by the progressive signs of venous stasis. This disorder is treated by: compressive bandaging, medicaments, sclerotherapy, surgery, etc. AIM Prospective study of the effects of semisynthetic diosmin (clinical signs, quality of life, local biochemical parameters) on patients with HVI to whom no other method of treatment has previous...

BACKGROUND The hallux valgus interphalangeus (HVI) deformity is described as rare, but improved outcomes in hallux valgus (HV) surgery is associated with its surgical correction via an Akin osteotomy. The hypothesis of this study is that HVI is common and makes a significant contribution to the total valgus deformity of the hallux (TVDH). METHODS 285 pre-operative foot radiographs (193 with H...

Trans catheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) represents a revolutionary treatment for patients with severe symptomatic stenosis who are at high surgical risk. The rate of periprocedural complications has decreased over time. However, the incidence conduction disease requiring permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation failed to decrease. decision PPM post TAVR is usually made based on ECG. It’s n...

Conditioned eyeblink responses are presumably learned in the cerebellum and relayed to motoneurons by way of the red nucleus. Projections from the red nucleus to cerebellar cortex (Larsell's lobule HVI) could be important for shaping temporally adaptive features of the conditioned response. Rabbits that had pipettes containing wheat germ agglutinated horseradish peroxidase (WGA-HRP) implanted u...
