This cross-sectional study was performed to determine (1) whether female victims of domestic violence (DV) are more likely to use the 911 system than nonvictims (NVs) and (2) whether DV and NVs call 911 for different reasons so that 911 may be used as a screening tool for abuse. The study was performed in an academic adult urban emergency department (ED). Ambulatory female patients presenting t...

OBJECTIVE To study if the duration of individual Doppler abnormalities is an independent predictor of adverse outcome in fetal growth restriction (FGR) caused by placental dysfunction. METHODS This was a secondary analysis of patients with FGR (abdominal circumference < 5(th) percentile and umbilical artery (UA) pulsatility index (PI) elevation) who had at least three examinations before deli...

Location information is one of the crucial and essential elements for monitoring data in wireless sensor networks. The distance vector-hop (DV-Hop) localization algorithm practical importance improving its performance. To achieve global optimization, a DV-Hop based on cyclotomic method weighted normalization, also known as CMWN-DV-Hop, nominated this paper. Therefore, segmentation weighting fac...

Dysfunctional voiding (DV), defined as abnormal coordination between the urinary sphincter and detrusor muscle in a neurologically intact individual, affects approximately 40% of patients that populate pediatric urology clinics. Improper hydration specific gravity concentration irritants, resulting symptoms similar to those seen DV patients.

This paper studies a coupled system of nonlinear fractional differential equation with three-point boundary conditions. Applying the Schauder fixed point theorem, an existence result is proved for the following system Du (t) = f (t, v (t) , Dv (t)) , t ∈ (0, 1) , Dv (t) = g (t, u (t) , Du (t)) , t ∈ (0, 1) , u (0) = 0, Du (1) = δDu (η) , v (0) = 0, Dv (1) = δDv (η) , where α, β, m, n, η, δ, θ s...

A Firewire device driver has been implemented on FreeBSD system. The driver provides IP network stack, native socket system interface, and stream device interface such as a DV video. The device driver shows enough performance on the IP over Firewire environment at 30Mbps. Also, DV video communication application using IP has been developed with the device driver and it enebles DV quality commun...

Co-endemicity of SARS-CoV-2 and dengue virus (DV) infection is becoming a matter serious concern as it has been already reported that antibodies (Ab) elicited by can produce false-positive results in IgG IgM rapid tests vice versa . Here we communicate five thirteen DV antibody-positive serum samples from Kolkata, archived 2017 (predating the COVID-19 outbreak), produced IgG/IgM lateral flow-ba...

BACKGROUND Mothers are at risk of domestic violence (DV) and its harmful consequences postpartum. There is no evidence to date for sustainability of DV screening in primary care settings. We aimed to test whether a theory-informed, maternal and child health (MCH) nurse-designed model increased and sustained DV screening, disclosure, safety planning and referrals compared with usual care.
