Computerized Motion Diagnostic Imaging (CMDI) Systems (Motion Diagnostics Laboratories, Hauppauge, NY) employ a dual-inclinometer and/or a long-arm goniometer and computer software to track range of motion and can allegedly estimate the percentage of impairment of the spine. However, there is a lack of evidence in the published peer-reviewed medical literature to support the usefulness of these...

objective: to evaluate the effect of advance trauma life support (atls®) training on general surgery residents clinical reasoning skills using the national boards-style objective structured clinical examination (osce). methods: this cross-sectional single-center study was conducted in shiraz university of medical sciences including 51 surgery residents that participated in a mandatory national ...

The article is devoted to ParryRomberg syndrome, one of the rare diseases. Here we declare contemporary views on predisposing factors, pathogenesis and character clinical performance. We describe methods differential diagnostics, criteria diagnostics as well treatment methods. also a case history disease.

This paper reviews the current situation in the field of pharmacogenetics/pharmacogenomics (PGx) in Europe. High expectations surrounding the clinical application of PGx remain largely unmet, as only a limited number of such applications have actually reached the market and clinical practice. Thus, the potential impact of PGx-based diagnostics on healthcare and its socio-economic implications a...

Background and Purpose: Orthopedic examination techniques of the musculoskeletal system contribute to the successful diagnostics of temporomandibular disorders (TMD). The purpose of this study is to determine the validity of TMD clinical diagnostics by comparing the findings of manual functional analysis (MFA) and the results of MRI of temporomandibular joint (TMJ). The diagnostic significance ...

This paper demonstrates the advantages of using on-line arithmetic for traditional and advanced detection algorithms for communication systems. Detection is one of the core computationallyintensive physical layer operations in a communication receiver and determines the communication data rates. Detection algorithms typically involve hard decisions (sign based testing) to find the sign of the t...
