conclusions higher ods score in females who had c/s showed that c/s could not protect the pelvic organ from pregnancy and delivery trauma. it seems that episiotomy has a protective effect during vd; it can reduce the severity of trauma in pelvic organs during childbearing. results in 30 consecutive females undergoing starr for the treatment of ods, who enrolled in this prospective study, 19 (63...

When physiological dead space (Vd(p)) is calculated for a patient who has alveolar dead space, e.g., after pulmonary vascular occlusion, less than the full volume of attached mechanical dead space (Vd(m)) appears in the measured dead space (Vd(n)). Under these conditions the traditional subtraction of Vd(m) from Vd(n) leads to underestimation of Vd(p) and can give a falsely small ratio of Vd(p)...

BACKGROUND We investigated the pharmacokinetics of etoposide (ETP) to reduce the inter-individual variations of ETP concentrations in patients with acute leukemia who underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. We also carried out an in vivo study using rats to verify the dose adjustment. METHODS This study included 20 adult patients. ETP was administered intravenously at a ...

Abstract Since the development of GNSS techniques, determination a precise quasi-geoid model has become even more actual. In terms this project staff Institute Geodesy and Geoinformatics (GGI) developed new based on DFHRS (Digital Finite-element Height Reference Surface) approach additionally using astrogeodetic measurements – vertical deflections (VD), which can be observed by Digital zenith c...

An acidic luminal pH in the epididymis and vas deferens (VD) helps maintain mature sperm in an immotile state during storage. We have previously shown that the majority of proton secretion in the VD is due to the activity of the vacuolar H+-ATPase. Acidification is dependent on luminal sodium in more proximal regions of the epididymis, and we examined the distribution of the Na+/H+ exchanger, N...

The aim of this study was to characterize the effect of typhoid fever on pharmacokinetic parameters of levofloxacin (LF) and compare the pharmacokinetic parameters of the said antibiotic in healthy human volunteers and patients with typhoid fever. Total of 12 subjects were divided into two groups "A" (healthy volunteers) and "B" (typhoid patients). Single oral dose of LF 500 mg was given and 5 ...

T. Amdeberhan, V. De Angelis, and V.H. Moll study the arithmetical properties of the complementary Bell numbers using an infinite matrix P whose basis is the falling factorials. This paper constructs a similar matrix whose basis is the rising factorials and parallels many of the same results.
