Introduction: Delivered dose of solute removal (assessed by Kt/v) is an important determinant of clinical outcome in chronic dialysis patients. The gold standard for Kt/v is the direct quantification of the removed urea. A new method, ionic dialysance has been suggested and used over the years. This method is faster, less expensive and non invasive. The objective of this study is to determine t...

In recent years, several combinatorial problems were introduced in the area of access control. Typically, such problems deal with an authorization policy, seen as a relation UR ⊆ U ×R, where (u, r) ∈ UR means that user u is authorized to access resource r. Li, Tripunitara and Wang (2009) introduced the Resiliency Checking Problem (RCP), in which we are given an authorization policy, a subset of...

OBJECTIVE Patients can experience urinary retention (UR) after Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) that requires bladder distension during the procedure. The aim of this retrospective study is to identify factors affecting the UR after HoLEP. MATERIALS AND METHODS 336 patients, which underwent HoLEP for a symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia between July 2008 and March 2012,...

Energy intake under-reporting (UR) is a concern in nutritional epidemiological studies, as it may distort the relationships between dietary habits and health. Although UR is known to be associated with certain characteristics, few studies have investigated them in France. Therefore, the goal of the present study was to assess the prevalence and characteristics of UR in French adults. UR was def...

STUDY DESIGN Matched cohort. OBJECTIVE To compare the unit rod instrumentation (UR) technique with all-pedicle screw (PS) constructs in the surgical care of scoliosis in Gross Motor Function Classification System IV/V non-ambulatory spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy patients. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Over the past 20 years, there has been a transition from the UR technique to the use of...
