Control Flow Checking (CFC) techniques were proposed to provide efficient protection from soft errors. The main idea is that most soft errors will eventually manifest as errors in the sequence of instruction execution. Therefore, just by making sure that the sequence of instructions executed (or the control flow of the program) is correct, then significant protection can be achieved. Note that ...

OBJECTIVE To present 2 cases of entrapment of the saphenous nerve at the adductor canal affecting the infrapatellar branch, and to provide insight into the utilization of nerve tension testing for the diagnosis of nerve entrapments in a clinical setting. RATIONALE Saphenous nerve entrapments are a very rare condition within today's body of literature, and the diagnosis remains controversial. ...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this pilot study was to determine risk factors, including Staphylococcus aureus nasal carriage, for dermatitis in submariners during a submarine patrol. PARTICIPANTS AND METHODS 36 submariners undertaking a submerged 6-week patrol participated in the study. Severity of dermatitis and its impact was assessed using visual analogue scales and questionnaires at baseline and w...

Empirical use of beta-lactam antibiotics, the preferred agents for treating uncomplicated skin and soft tissue infections, may no longer be appropriate for these infections because of the increasing prevalence of community strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Retrospective studies, however, suggest that outcomes are good even when beta-lactams are used. We conducted a ...

BACKGROUND Skin and soft tissue infections are increasingly prevalent clinical problems, and it is important for health care practitioners to be well trained in how to treat skin abscesses. A realistic model of abscess incision and drainage will allow trainees to learn and practice this basic physician procedure. METHODS We developed a realistic model of skin abscess formation to demonstrate ...

In this paper, we introduce two different notions of generalized supra soft sets namely supra A--soft sets and supra soft locally closed sets in supra soft topological spaces, which are weak forms of supra open soft sets and discuss their relationships with each other and other supra open soft sets [{it International Journal of Mathematical Trends and Technology} (IJMTT), (2014) Vol. 9 (1):37--...
