BACKGROUND Bone staples are an accepted method of fixation in foot surgery. They reduce operating time and trauma in surgical procedures. A variety of memory staples are available but their properties compared to standard staples are not known. We carried out a study comparing two popular types of memory staples and a standard stainless steel staple. METHODS Standardized bone models of metata...

Cotton crop is an imperative role in Pakistan’s economy. It faces several environmental situations which check its growth and production. Climate changes bring a head new pressure for cotton cultivation the Pakistan especially Sindh province. The present study was carried out at Nuclear Institute of Agriculture (NIA), Tandojam 2021. Four advance lines NIA-88, M-32, NIA-Bt. 89 NIA-Bt.90 along wi...

As distinct from the cereal crops and the spring-flowering fruits, which are characterized by a reproductive climax, cotton is like the tomato and cucurbits in its indeterminate growth; but it is different in the minor extent to which fruit size is influenced by environment and fruitfulness. In a regional variety study (3), 16 varieties of cotton planted during each of three years at eight loca...

The fiber damage during manufacture, use, and service of textiles leads to fragmented generation. All (natural, regenerated, synthetic polymer sources) release fragments. Several textile structural parameters have been studied in association with release; however, there is a paucity work on the effect different types yarn structures release. This study elucidates impact key (rudimentary element...

INTRODUCTION Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is one of the most popular bariatric procedures. The procedure is associated with serious staple-line complications such as bleeding, leaks, and stenosis. AIM To determine whether oversewing the staple line, compared with clipping, in LSG reduces the incidence of postoperative bleeding. MATERIAL AND METHODS We conducted a parallel-group, pr...

BACKGROUND Anastomotic leakage is a serious complication after rectal surgery. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of waiting time during firing of stapling devices on optimal staple formation. METHODS An endoscopic linear stapler (Echelon Flex 60 Endopath) with either a 60 mm blue or gold cartridge was applied to the cardiac and pyloric portions of 27 fresh porcine stomachs. Three...

HYPOTHESIS The use of staple-line reinforcement sleeves during laparoscopic gastric bypass reduces staple-line bleeding, which may translate into a reduction in the rate of gastrointestinal hemorrhage. DESIGN Prospective randomized trial. SETTING University hospital. PATIENTS AND INTERVENTIONS Thirty-four patients undergoing laparoscopic gastric bypass were randomly assigned to receive ei...

One of the most crucial topics in cotton breeding is identification plant reactions to environment, including its stressful circumstances and amount responsiveness biotic abiotic stimuli. Plants continuously interact with their environment as they grow develop; this interaction results organism's ability adapt, or adaptation. For duration plant's existence, process adaptation never comes a stop...
