conclusions supervised in-hospital exercise training was associated with improvements in saecg-measured electrical activity post-mi. results cardiac rehabilitation led to significant improvements in qrs duration (p < 0.001), square root of amplitude in the last 40 ms (p < 0.001) and duration of terminal signal with low amplitude (p < 0.001). cardiac rehabilitation also resulted in amelioration ...

Using clinical examples, the article shows use of International Classification Functioning, Disabilities and Health (ICF) in practice an osteopathic doctor. Somatic dysfunctions (structural functional disorders) research, recorded according to international classification functioning form a violation «structure» «function», make it possible solve many issues scientific osteopathy.

Computer simulations are challenging in terms of modeling the appropriate behavior brick masonry structures. These numerical becoming increasingly difficult due to several design code requirements considered for technical assessment structures rehabilitation. In Romania, many have withstood powerful earthquakes during their lifetime and require rehabilitation works. This paper aims further asse...

Ceramic post-and-core systems offer biocompatibility, aesthetics, reinforcement of the remnant root, and prosthesis retention. Aesthetic posts-and-cores contribute to the optical properties of the overlying restorations when metal-free crowns are used. This article illustrates the use of these materials to provide strength and aesthetics during the restoration of endodontically treated teeth. T...

Introduction In a recent editorial, Cooperstein et al.1 made numerous claims, supported only by their Level 5 evidence (opinion), concerning an article which we authored in the December 2005 issue of this journal.2 Our original article was a review of publications of structural rehabilitation methods utilized in CBP® technique.2 The criticisms of Cooperstein et al.1 can be categorized into 8 po...

Improvement and recovery of function after a cerebral lesion imply a reorganization of the central nervous system. This capacity of the nervous system to adapt its structural organization is referred to as cerebral plasticity. This paper summarizes the biochemical and histological basis of cerebral plasticity, reviews the modalities of brain reorganization following amputations and cerebral les...

Abstract As time goes on, the majority of countries face issue a large number old and/or decommissioned buildings that need rehabilitation/consolidation measures to be put in, further used in structural safety circumstances. The work presents an analysis terms efficiency rehabilitation techniques aim improve and strengthen structure individually or as whole. purpose this study is investigate me...
