BACKGROUND Epidural intracranial hematoma is one of the most common complications of surgeries for intracranial tumors. The non-regional epidural hematoma is related to severe fluctuation of the intracranial pressure during the operation. The traditional management of hematoma evacuation through craniotomy is time-consuming and may aggravate intracranial pressure imbalance, which causes further...

Granulocytes cause some of the pathophysiological effects associated with the capillary no-reflow phenomenon during ischemia and in ischemia-reperfusion injury. However, no study has examined the consequences of in vivo granulocyte activation during normal perfusion pressures. In this study, we examined the effects of intracoronary administration of the complement component C5a, which is known ...

Urban ecosystem health evaluation can assist in sustainable ecological management at a regional level. This study examined urban agglomeration ecosystem health in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River with entropy weight and extension theories. The model overcomes information omissions and subjectivity problems in the evaluation process of urban ecosystem health. Results showed that human cap...

An experiment involving 289 farrowings during a 2-yr period was conducted to determine the effect of increasing dietary nutrient concentration, electrolyte balance, and season of the year on the lactational performance of sows. Experimental diets were corn-soybean meal-based. The basal diet was formulated to meet or exceed the NRC requirements and the high-nutrient diet was formulated to contai...

Diversity of regional industry is regarded as a key factor for regional development, as it has a positive relationship with economic stability, which attracts population. This paper focuses on how the spatial imbalance of industrial diversity contributes to the population change caused by inter-regional migration. This paper introduces a spatial interaction model for the Geographic Information ...

Economic imbalances and social disparities are a common feature of developmenteconomies, particularly those which have historical antecedents of colonial rule. The study ofregional imbalances is given focus especially to Southeast Asian countries owing to its renewedimportance in the global order. Post independent India had to tackle with several problems at theoutset, regional imbalance and ec...

the development and widespread use of a prophylactic vaccine significantly reduced the incidence of poliomyelitis. at present we more commonly encounter with poliomyelitis sequelae especially in developing countries. we evaluate the results of a modified innominate osteotomy for leg length discrepancy in poliomyelitis. instead of triangular bone graft as in salter’s innominate osteotomy , a tra...

every woman is at risk of ovarian cancer; about 90 percent of women who develop ovarian cancer are above 40 years of age, with the high number of ovarian cancers occurring at the age of 60 years and above. early and correct diagnosis of ovarian cancer can allow proper treatment and as a result reduce the mortality rate. in this paper, we proposed a hybrid of synthetic minority over-sampling tec...
