In the last decades, helicopter-borne electromagnetic (HEM) method became a focus of interest in the fields of mineral exploration, geological mapping, groundwater resource investigation and environmental monitoring. As a standard approach, researchers use 1-D inversion of the acquired HEM data to recover the conductivity/resistivity-depth models. Since the relation between HEM data and model ...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the safety and usefulness of the Hem-o-lok clip for the closure of appendicular stumps and limitations of the Hem-o-lok clip. METHODS From May 2010 to August 2011, 105 consecutive patients underwent laparoscopic appendectomies by three surgeons. XL size Hem-o-lok clips were used for the closure of appendicular stumps by one surgeon. The rem...

The Hem/Kette/Nap1 protein is involved in many biological processes. We have recently reported that Hem is required for the normal migration of neurons in the Drosophila embryo. In this paper, we report that Hem regulates the asymmetric division of neural precursor cells. We find that a well-studied Hem/Kette mutant allele produces at least two main, but possibly more, phenotypic classes of mut...

In this paper, based on our previous multi-pattern uniform resource locator (URL) binary-matching algorithm called HEM, we propose an improved multi-pattern matching algorithm called MH that is based on hash tables and binary tables. The MH algorithm can be applied to the fields of network security, data analysis, load balancing, cloud robotic communications, and so on-all of which require stri...

We are interested in the early mechanisms that initiate regional patterning in the dorsal telencephalon, which gives rise to cerebral cortex. Members of the LIM-homeodomain (LIM-HD) family of transcription factors are implicated in patterning and cell fate specification in several systems including the mammalian forebrain. Mice in which Lhx2 is disrupted were reported to have reduced telencepha...

The physical process of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) results in derangement of the hemostatic mechanism, which may lead to increased morbidity, secondary to the disease process. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the hematological status of neonates undergoing ECMO therapy, and to evaluate coagulation tests in predicting hemorrhagic risk. Following Institutional Review Boar...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The search for the perfect suture is going on and has resulted in the introduction of many different suture types into the market. The purpose of this study is to investigate the holding strength (HS) of different sutures in the renal parenchyma in an experimental study on pig kidneys. METHODS The HS that caused sliding of the suture was investigated in 5 adult porci...

Özet. Gömülü sistem uygulamaları genel amaçlı bilgisayarlarda geliştirilen uygulamaların aksine kısıtlı bellek, kısıtlı işlemci gücü ve kısıtlı depolama alanı problemlerine sahip ortamlar için geliştirilmektedir. Ancak geliştirilen uygulamalardan beklenen performans hem işlevsel anlamda hem de kullanıcı etkileşimi açısından genel amaçlı bilgisayarlardan farksız olarak düşünülmelidir. Son yıllar...
