OBJECTIVE Although standard method has not been established for the chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH), burr-hole trephination and closed system drainage with or without irrigation has been widely accepted as the treatment of choice. The aim of this study is to analysis the post-operative recurrence rates after burr-hole trephination of the CSDH according to the conduction of irrigation. METHOD...

Better irrigation management and more efficient management of crop production require modeling of plant growth and crop yield. More applicable models are usually simple and requires less and accessible inputs. The objective of this study was to develop a model for growth and yield prediction of saffron under various irrigation regimes. In this modeling soil water budget and other simple rel...

BACKGROUND The need for reoperation or wound infection treatments between pulsatile and gravity irrigation are statistically equivalent, however, it is unclear which method maximizes operative efficiency and expeditious irrigation. In this study we set out to determine the differences in irrigation rate between these various treatment methods. METHODS This was an ex-vivo experimental laborato...

Water management and nitrogen application are critical factors in wheat grain yield and protein quality. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of irrigation and nitrogen application on the grain yield, protein content and amino acid composition of winter wheat. Field experiments were conducted in a split-plot design with three replications in high-yielding land on the North China Plain in 201...

in recognition of the value and limitations of available water resources in agriculture and the occurrence of periodic drought in iran, water conservation and optimal usage of available water is essential. the main objective of this study was to optimize field water management and cropping patterns using deficit irrigation. the effect of reducing water consumption on different growth stages usi...

abstract- a detailed understanding of crop rooting systems will facilitate water use reduction, optimized nutrient uptake and irrigation scheduling more efficiently. a field experiment was conducted during 2005-2006 to investigate sugar beet rooting depth growth, irrigated with three irrigation methods (subsurface drip, surface drip and furrow) and two water qualities (recycled wastewater: ec= ...

in this study, effect of slope on soil wetting pattern under surface drip irrigation and simulation with hydrus-2d model evaluated.the physical model made of plexiglas to size 83, 6 and 54 cm (length, width, height) filled with silty clay loam soil was used. to achieve the desired discharge, a small drip irrigation system created that includes a water tank with a fixed height (about 2 meters), ...

present limitations on available water resources especially for use in agriculture sector, shows that more attention to irrigation water management is inevitable. deficit irrigation is a practice to improve use of unit volume of water. in this research, efficacy of cropwat 8.0 model was evaluated against field data under deficit irrigation management on soybean in karaj. in 2008 and 2009 agrono...
