Background/Aim: Sigmoid volvulus (SV) is an uncommon disease worldwide, while SV complicating pregnancy extremely rare. The aim of this study to evaluate the current diagnostic and therapeutic options in during a case series. Methods: clinical data 1,046 patients with SV, including 11 pregnant women, were reviewed retrospectively. Age, gestation period, previous history volvulus, presence comor...

conclusions in our patients, the ra grafts had an acceptable patency rate in 2 to 5 years’ follow-up. although the sv grafts had a relatively higher patency rate than ra grafts in our asymptomatic patients, the patency rates in ra and sv grafts were close to each other. the ra graft function was poor in the patients with a higher number of risk factors and in the females. background patency of ...

BACKGROUND Few studies have examined parental perceptions of their child's screen-viewing (SV) within the context of parental SV time. This study qualitatively examined parents' perceptions of their 5-6-year-old child's SV within the context of their own quantitatively measured SV. METHODS A mixed-methods design employed semi-structured telephone interviews, demographic and SV questionnaires,...

In the immunofluorescent study it has been revealed that rabbit sera immunized with transformed cells induced by SV-40 DNA, produce circulating antibody capable of re:lcting with intranuclear antigens synthesized by SV-40 complyte virus transforming process, In addition, the result confirmed that SV-40 DNA replicates DNA-containing viruses in the host cell and that also the genome coding for th...

In this study, three-dimensional numerical analyses were carried out to investigate the effects of reinforcement pullout resistance including facing connection strength on behavior geosynthetic-reinforced soil (GRS) piers under a service load condition. Three different investigated in which simulated levels resistance. Each pier had two cases with stiffness J and spacing Sv but same ratio J/Sv....

Different aspects of the built and natural environment appear related to people’s walking behavior. State-of-the-art transport studies typically incorporate environmental measures (e.g., density, diversity, design). However, street view (SV) environments capturing how pedestrians perceived their surroundings on site are understudied. Therefore, this study examined possibly non-linear associatio...

Ca(2+), Mg(2+), and K(+) activities in red beet (Beta vulgaris L.) vacuoles were evaluated using conventional ion-selective microelectrodes and, in the case of Ca(2+), by non-invasive ion flux measurements (MIFE) as well. The mean vacuolar Ca(2+) activity was approximately 0.2 mM. Modulation of the slow vacuolar (SV) channel voltage dependence by Ca(2+) in the absence and presence of other cati...

OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate total and device-specific screen viewing (SV) and its determinants in children aged 2 years and below. DESIGN Cross-sectional study conducted in February 2014. SETTING Well-child clinics in Singapore national polyclinics. PARTICIPANTS Parents of children (Singapore citizens or permanent residents) aged 2 years and below were enrolled during routin...
