The goal of our research project is to protect security of applications and software systems in a whole new way: by diversifying implementations of all the software layers and their interfaces on the binary level. The system call interface of the operating system is diversified uniquely for each system and all the entry points to this interface are diversified in applications and libraries acco...

conclusions the world health organization (who) has suggested relatively relaxed limits of 100 cfu/m3 for bacteria and 50 cfu/m3 for fungi in the hospital air. therefore, quantitative and qualitative outcomes of this study demonstrate that contamination level and bacterial variety in surgery rooms and emergency departments is high and effective measures must be taken to control the possible hea...

background: nursing project management is widely used in different aspects of the society. however, whether the nursing project management can control the infections in the operation room (or) is rarely reported. we evaluated the outcomes of surgical patients after implementing a nursing project management program to provide new scientific ways to manage the or infections. methods: overall, 382...

present study is an extension of earlier work carried out on two-lane two way roads in the two provinces of pakistan i.e. n-25, n-55 and n-5 regarding the measure of operating speed and development of operating speed prediction models. curved sections of two-lane rural highways are the main location of run-off road accidents. in addition to that the road alignment having combination of geometri...

background a strong association between obesity and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld) has been reported. objectives this study was conducted to evaluate if new obesity indices, including a body shape index (absi) and body roundness index (bri), have stronger associations with nafld than waist-to-hip ratio (whr) and waist-to-height ratio (whtr). methods in this cross-sectional study, we ...

ntroduction: Electrocautery device is one of the most widely used electronic devices in operating rooms despite its advantages in operations, production risks such as the halo of smoke above the operating position. The smoke with hazardous substances,cause to transmitting HIV, HPV and hepatitis and complications such as respiratory distress, nausea and vomiting, eye irritation, headache, and so...

The air-injection as an active flow stabilizing techniques, were numerically examined in current work, during the aerodynamic behavior and the characteristics of an axial compressor. At first, in design condition the characteristic curve was numerically captured for a specified test compressor. The computed results showed good agreements with those obtained from the experiments, to validate the...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Prediction rules for the risk of stroke have been proposed. However, most studies were conducted with whites or for secondary prevention, and it is not clear whether these models apply to the Chinese population. The purpose of this study was to construct a simple points-based clinical model for predicting incident stroke among Chinese adults in Taiwan. METHODS We estima...
