Purpose. To review the postoperative seizure outcomes of patients that underwent surgery for epilepsy at King Faisal Specialist Hospital & Research Centre (KFSHRC). Methods. A descriptive retrospective study for 502 patients operated on for medically intractable epilepsy between 1998 and 2012. The surgical outcome was measured using the ILAE criteria. Results. The epilepsy surgery outcome for t...

In the present study, the effects of hypochlorous acid (HOCl), monochloramine (NH(2)Cl), glutamine-chloramine (Glu-Cl) and taurine-chloramine (Tau-Cl) on the formation of 12-lipoxygenase (LOX) metabolite, 12-HETE, and cyclooxygenase (COX) metabolites, TXB(2), and 12-HHT, from exogenous arachidonic acid (AA) in rat platelets were examined. Rat platelets (4x10(8)/ml) were preincubated with drugs ...

BACKGROUND We studied the biological safety, biomechanics, and tissue compatibility of calcium phosphate cement and Polymethyl Methacrylate composite bone cement mixed in different ratios. MATERIAL/METHODS CPC and PMMA were mixed in different ratios (3:1, 2:1, 1:1, 1:2, 1:5, 1:10, 1:15, and 1:20). PMMA solvent is a general solvent containing a dissolved preparation of the composite bone cemen...

Aim: Postoperative pain is a condition that can develop after all operations and negatively affect the patient's recovery. It also common in kidney transplant recipients. Especially choice of analgesics to be used this patient group important. The aim retrospective study evaluate effectiveness combination tramadol + meperidine for postoperative analgesia Materials Methods: Between April 2014 20...

Abstract With high spatial and temporal resolution data from the Solar Dynamics Observatory New Vacuum Telescope (NVST), we present observations of recurrent jets confined by coronal loops that occurred in active region NOAA 11726 02:00 to 12:00 UT on 2013 April 21. Three are clearly observed NVST H α line. These originate emerging bipolar magnetic at north region. Half them related flux emerge...

This research is useful to improve the learning outcomes of students in class IVB ipas through puzzle media at SDN Peterongan. The used a Classroom Action Research (PTK) design and was conducted over two cycles. assessment shows that there an increase each cycle. In pre-cycle, who were complete 8 or percentage 33% while those not 16 incomplete 67%. cycle I, 67% incomplete. II, 20 83% 4 17% It c...

Thermal epimerization is the key to changing the endo-to-exo ratio of the diastereomeric bornyl and fenchyl Grignard reagents from 67:33 to 96:4 and from 20:80 to 80:20, respectively.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE As modifications are made to coils, monitoring the safety profile, ability to achieve high packing attenuation, and durability of occlusion as compared to the standard bare platinum coils is of paramount importance. We compared packing attenuation, initial occlusion, and recanalization rates between Cerecyte and bare platinum coils in the treatment of ruptured and unruptu...

Oncogenic RET alterations are targetable markers in pts with TC. In the phase I/II ARROW trial (NCT03037385; data cutoff 12 Apr 2021; intention-to-treat [ITT] population), pralsetinib at 400 mg once daily (QD) induced overall response rates (ORR) of 51% RET-mutant medullary TC (RETm MTC) previously treated cabozantinib and/or vandetanib (C/V), 72% treatment-naïve RETm MTC, and 86% fusion-positi...
