OBJECTIVE To review blunt traumatic abdominal wall hernias (TAWHs) in our institution. METHOD Retrospective review of blunt abdominal trauma cases over a 6-month period. RESULTS Four patients with TAWH were identified. The mean age was 36 years. Three had been involved in vehicular collisions, and 1 had been assaulted with a large stone. All were diagnosed on presentation, 3 by computed tom...

The objective of this retrospective study is to characterize the nature and severity of injuries of hospitalized traffic accident victims using the "Abbreviated Injury Scale" (AIS). Two-hundred and twenty such patients in a trauma reference hospital in Sao Paulo, Brazil were assessed. One-hundred and eleven of them were pedestrians, eighty-three vehicular passengers and twenty-six motorcyclists...

BACKGROUND Africa has 4% of the global vehicles but accounts for about one tenth of global vehicular deaths. Major trauma in Kenya is associated with excess mortality in comparison with series from trauma centers. The determinants of this mortality have not been completely explored. OBJECTIVES To determine the factors affecting mortality among road users in Nairobi, Kenya. METHODS Cross-sec...

present transplant study was carried out across lucknow, the capital of utter pardesh using two medicinally important plants viz., ?catharanthus roseus l.? and ?ocimum sanctum l.? to assess whether certain ecophysiological responses (change in total flavonoids and total phenolics) in these two plants may serve as the biomarkers of auto exhaust pollution. samples were taken from five different s...

Vehicular communications, referring to information exchange among vehicles, pedestrians, and infrastructures, have become very popular and been widely studied recently due to its great potential to support intelligent transportation and various safety applications. Via vehicular communications, manually driving vehicles and autonomous vehicles can collect useful information to improve traffic s...

Vehicular networks have attracted increasing attention from both the academy and industry. Applications of vehicular networks require efficient data communications between vehicles, whose performance is concerned with delivery ratio, delivery delay, and routing cost. The most previous work of routing in vehicular networks assumes oversimplified node mobility when evaluating the performance of v...
