Hypernatremia is defined as plasma Na+ concentration above 145 meq/L (often due to absolute body water loss and not to total sodium excess). Nevertheless, when kidney damage is present, as occurs in renal diseases, hepatic cirrhosis and congestive heart failure, total body sodium can be increased. The present study evaluates the relationship between hypernatremia and response to anesthetic drug...

The electrochemical sensor for detecting hydrogen sulfide was fabricated. H2S gas molecules pass through polytetrafluoroethylene membrane with 0.22 mm pore size. Carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs-COOH) were used to fabricate working and counter electrodes. It can be seen from Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) images of the working electrode that...

A new frequency offset compensation technique for the MIPI Low Latency Interface (LLI) application is proposed. The proposed clock and data recovery (CDR) circuit has a composite structure of bang-bang and oversampling phase detectors with an offset estimator. Digitally estimated frequency offset is used to determine the gain of the 2nd order digital CDR. An elastic FIFO for the oversampled mul...
