Abstract Background Tumour necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α) converting enzyme (TACE) plays an essential role in the TNF‐α shedding process, which could affect outcome of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, it remains unclear whether originates from ruptured plaque or represents a systemic process. This study analysed TACE‐mediated at site plaques AMI patients and compared them with mechanism. Materials methods The included 60 who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) 21 stable...
We have been developing a grip aid system using air cylinders to assist elderly who weak grasping force daily living activities. The is small and light weight. In this paper, mechanism thumb, index, middle fingers one cylinder for each finger, proposed. And also control method of the device bending sensor transfer their will developed. Finally much kind objects are grasped with an result shows potential system.
Completion lobectomy long after segmentectomy in the same lobe is extremely difficult because of severe adhesions around hilar structures, especially cases involving video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) completion lobectomy. We report and compare surgical outcomes patients who underwent VATS or thoracotomy radical for lung cancer.We retrospectively evaluated lobectomies performed at our institute segmentectomies cancer lobe. The efficacy safety was compared to that lobectomy.Ten 228...
This study focuses on the sense of brightness in foraging Japanese yellow swallowtail butterfly, Papilio xuthus . We presented two red discs different intensity a grey background to butterflies, and trained them select one discs. They were successfully either high or low disc. The butterflies tested their ability perceive protocols: (i) orange same (ii) separately that was higher lower than training background. selected disc protocol 1, 2. obtained similar results another set experiments...
Tooth agenesis can involve one or more congenitally missing teeth (CMT) and is the most common congenital dental anomalies in humans. reduction of mesiodistal tooth width are reportedly associated, suggesting that pathogenesis two conditions related. The current study analyzed frequency cases hypodontia (1-5 CMT) oligodontia (≥ 6 Japanese patients based on hypothesis reductions frequently associated with than hypodontia.Japanese were divided into (60 female 25 male, mean age 19.6 years, CMT...
The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to investigate the effects congenitally missing teeth on craniofacial morphology and characterize features maxillofacial oligodontia patients associated with individual skeletal maturity by assessment cervical vertebrae maturation (CVM) method. A total 106 non-syndromic Japanese (except for third molars) were selected categorized into two groups according severity (hypodontia group, 1–5 [n = 56]; ≥ 6 50]). control group included orthodontic...
This study demonstrates that the color vision of foraging Japanese yellow swallowtail butterflies, Papilio xuthus, involves simultaneous contrast. We trained newly emerged to select a disk pale green among set differently colored disks presented on black background. When same was blue background, green-trained butterflies selected blue-green. The difference in spectra between and similar spectrum for human vision, suggesting induces yellow. Similarly, more bluish spring also with orange...
Background: The efficacy of curative-intent pulmonary resection for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with certain types oligometastases, particularly brain and adrenal metastases, has previously been described. We investigated the outcomes NSCLC synchronous isolated bone which have less clear to date. Methods: retrospectively reviewed clinical pathological records 41 metastases who underwent radical treatments (surgery and/or chemotherapy radiotherapy) both their primary tumors at...
[b]BACKGROUND[/b] Correctly diagnosing a staple-line mass after pulmonary resection for lung malignant tumor can be difficult. Differential diagnoses of recurrence, infectious mass, granuloma, and so on must considered, despite their rarity. We report two cases staple-stump granuloma segmentectomy cancer. [b]CASE REPORT[/b] Case 1 involved 70-year-old man with small nodule in the left upper lobe identified computed tomography (CT). Video-assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) division was performed....
Single-port video-assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) pulmonary wedge resection was reported in 2004. We started using single-port VATS (SPVATS) 2017 and compared results between conventional three-port (VATS group) SPVATS (SPVATS group).We identified 145 consecutive patients with group group. Perioperative characteristics including pain the number of stapler cartridges used were examined as surgical outcomes, retrospectively.In all, 66 cases 79 compared. The rate epidural anesthesia (p <0.0001)...
The double-loop technique has been used in our clinical settings for pulmonary arterioplasty and/or injured artery repair during thoracoscopic anatomical lung resection. We evaluated the pressure resistance capacity and intimal load to determine effectiveness safety of technique.The technique, DeBakey clamp, Fogarty endovascular clips vessel loop were evaluated. During an experimental study, a polyvinyl alcohol main model, manometer in-deflation device measure burst pressure. maximum clamp...
The design and performance of a wide bandwidth linear polarization modulator based on the Faraday effect is described. Rotation Modulators (FRMs) are solid-state switches that capable modulation up to ~10 kHz. Six FRMs were utilized during 2006 observing season in Background Imaging Cosmic Extragalactic Polarization (BICEP) experiment; three used at each BICEP's 100 150 GHz frequency bands. technology was verified through high signal-to-noise detection Galactic using two six four runs 2006....
Large incisional hernias are difficult to repair, especially in elderly patients with thin abdominal walls. Although most such simply observed, they do not spontaneously resolve. Previously reported procedures inadequate for repair of all hernias. We herein propose an innovative technique ventral hernias.A 88-year-old woman had a large hernia bilateral inguinal Incisional hernioplasty was successfully performed extraperitoneal reinforcement by combining underlay and onlay methods using one...
