purpose: to compare the morphology and function of corneal enthothelial cell in early postoperative period after phacoemulsification with infusion or bolus intracameral adrenaline. methods: in this prospective randomized study, 71 eyes of 71 patients scheduled for phacoemulsification were randomly assigned to two groups: one group (31 eyes) received bolus intraocular adrenaline at 1/10,000 conc...

    Introduction: In the last few decades, a lot of monte carlo codes have been introduced for medical applications. For close - to - surface tumors, the surface of the skin can be used to increase the surface dose so that all or part of the bunch area can fall into bolus, thereby increasing the dose of the skin. The air gaps between bolus and skin can affect the dose of...

background: we investigated the efficacy of a mobile-based  bolus advisor app in comparison with the usual multiple daily  injections (mdis) in diabetic patients. materials and methods: in a nonrandomized, controlled clinical trial, 62 diabetic patients  were selected to receive a 12-week intensive glycemic control by either a mobile-based bolus advisor (app) or mdi in the usual manner.we compa...

introduction bolus is a soft and resilient material which is used for increasing skin dose or to even out the irregular patient contour. the main property of various materials used presently as bolus is the water-equivalent electron density. ethyl methacrylate is used as a soft-liner in dentistry and its physical and chemical properties are proved to be nontoxic for human body. the goal of this...

Published data on the effects of ruminal bolus on the number of ovulatory follicles in ewes does not exist. The present study determined the effects of a ruminal bolus on trace element status, follicular dynamics and reproductive performance in ewes. Eighty Afshari cycling ewes were synchronized during breeding season using CIDR for 14 days and assigned to 4 groups (n=20); group 1 received a si...

there is no randomized study carried out in order to compare their pharmacokinetic parameters although midazolam, as a sedative, has been widely administered via continuous infusion as well as intermittent bolus doses in mechanically ventilated critically ill patients. we prospectively investigated the effect of these two principal methods on pharmacokinetic parameters in 23 of mentioned patien...

conclusion the designed split-bolus mdct technique can be proposed alternatively to triphasic mdct and in a single-pass to pvp in the initial staging and in the follow-up respectively in oncologic patients. patients and methods we retrospectively analyzed the follow-up split-bolus 64-detector row ct protocol in 36 oncologic patients to characterize focal liver lesions. the split-bolus mdct prot...
