PURPOSE To assess the monthly rates of infection of individual pin sites in 7 patients during distraction osteogenesis. METHODS Five men and 2 women aged 15 to 35 (mean, 23) years underwent distraction osteogenesis for 8 tibias using the Ilizarov ring external fixator or Taylor Spatial Frame. Patients were taught to perform standard daily pin site care at home, and were evaluated monthly for ...

Abstract We studied the probability of occurrence, distribution and abundance eight small fish species in 512 rivers at eastern edge Europe a region high geographical environmental heterogeneity. Stone loach, common minnow, gudgeon were recorded more than 50% study sites. Common minnow was most abundant species, contributing 66% all captures. Elevation, depth, width river main factors influenci...

The regular PIN-entry method has been still the most common of authentication for systems and networks. However, PINs are easy to be captured through various attacks, including shoulder-surfing, video-recording, spyware. This could attributed involuntary nature entering original PIN during authentication. In this paper, we employ an indirect input that utilizes addition mod 10 a mini-challenge ...

introduction: foreign body aspiration (fba) represents a life-threatening emergency .it occurs primarily in children below 3 years. generally, the most common aspirated fb is organic material such as nuts or beans. sharp foreign bodies (fbs) are of particular concern to the attending clinician, because of their potential to perforate the air passage and cause possible complications. here in, we...

We have recently demonstrated that in rats with 5/6 nephrectomy (5/6 Nx), renal cortical and inner medullary neuronal NOS (nNOS) expression is downregulated, associated with decreased urinary excretion of nitric oxide (NO) products. Recently, a novel 89-amino acid protein [protein inhibitor of nNOS (PIN)] was isolated from rat brain and shown to inhibit nNOS activity. The present studies locali...

In friction stir welding frictional heat is generated by the rotating tool, sliding over the stationary plate along the weld centre. Tool being the only source of heat producing member, its geometrical design influences the heat generation rate. In this present work, effects of variation in tool shoulder and tool pin taper angles on thermal history during joining are analysed. Tools with triang...

Pin site infections are a common complication of external fixation that places a significant burden on the patient and healthcare system. Such infections increase the number of clinic visits required during a patient's course of treatment, can result in the need for additional treatment including antibiotics and surgery, and most importantly can compromise patient outcomes should osteomyelitis ...
