Objective This study compares an initial group of patients undergoing laparoscopic live donor nephrectomy to a open assess the efficacy, morbidity, and patient recovery after technique. Summary Background Data Recent data have shown technical feasibility harvesting renal allografts using approach. However, comparison recovery, short-term graft function has not been performed previously. Methods An series were compared historic control subjects nephrectomy. The groups matched for age, gender,...
Abstract False rumors on WhatsApp, the world’s largest messaging app, have led to mob lynching in India and other countries. Doctored videos sent over platform elicited visceral responses among users, resulting wrongful death of innocent people. Would been so strong if false news were circulated text or audio? Is video modality reason for such powerful effects? We explored this question by comparing reactions three stories prepared either text-only, audio-only, formats, rural urban users...
We determined whether laparoscopic living donor nephrectomy decreases the morbidity of renal donation for donor, while providing a allograft quality comparable to that open nephrectomy.In 3-year period was performed via transperitoneal approach. evaluated and recipient medical records preoperative characteristics, intraoperative parameters complications, postoperative recovery complications.Of 320 nephrectomies left kidney removed in 97.5%. Intraoperative which developed 10.4% cases, tended...
Background. Laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (laparoNx) has the potential to increase living kidney donation rates by reducing pain and suffering of donor. However, renal function outcomes a large series recipients laparoNx have not been studied. Methods. We retrospectively reviewed records 132 done at our center between 3/96 11/97 compared them 99 kidneys procured open technique (openNx) 10/93 3/96. Results. Significantly more patients in group (25.2%) were taking tacrolimus within first...
Closed cycle systems offer an opportunity for solar energy harvesting and storage all within the same material. Photon is stored chemical conformations of molecules retrieved by a triggered release in form heat. Until now, such thermal fuels (STFs) have been largely unavailable solid‐state, which would enable them to be utilized multitude applications. A polymer STF platform synthesized employing STFs solid‐state. This approach enables uniform films capable appreciable heat up 30 Wh kg −1...
Photocontrolled self-assembly of molecules can be utilized to significantly improve the photon energy storage in photoswitching materials.
Creative thought enables humans to flexibly generate, evaluate and select novel adaptive ideas according different contexts. Decades of creativity research indicates that it involves at least two aspects: retrieval previously acquired knowledge manipulation knowledge. However, the cognitive processes underpinning these aspects creative remain underspecified. The broader clinical-cognitive neuroscience literature suggests is underpinned by general purpose mechanisms supporting semantic...
Background: Fruits of Morus alba L. (mulberry) have various bioactive compounds such as polyphenols and anthocyanins used a herbal medicine. However, the anti-cancer effects molecular basis not been elucidated. Methods: We isolated cyanidin-3-glucoside in cultivar mulberry by acidified-methanol extraction methods. This molecule were compared mass spectroscopic properties LC-MS/MS analyzed 1H 13C NMR. examined effect with mechanisms on MDA-MB-453 human breast cancer cells xenograft animal...
MModern day voice-activated virtual assistants allow users to share and ask for information that could be considered as personal through different input modalities devices. Using Google Assistant, this study examined if the differences in modality (i.e., voice vs. text) device smartphone smart home device) affect user perceptions when attempt retrieve sensitive health from assistants. Major findings suggest (vs. interaction significantly enhanced perceived social presence of assistant, but...
Paying attention to the rising popularity of virtual assistants (VAs) that offer unique user experiences through voice-centered interaction, this study examined effects modality, device, and task differences on perceived human likeness of, attitudes toward, voice-activated VAs. To do so, a 2 (modality: voice vs. text) × (device: mobile laptop) (task type: hedonic utilitarian) mixed factorial experimental design was employed. Findings suggest (vs. interaction leads more positive toward VA...
Objective To examine the ability of several large, experienced transplantation centers to perform right-sided laparoscopic donor nephrectomy safely with equivalent long-term renal allograft function. Summary Background Data Early reports noted a higher incidence vein thrombosis and eventual graft loss. However, exclusion donors would deprive significant proportion laparoscopically harvested graft. Methods A retrospective review was performed among 97 patients from seven performing...
Objective To review the authors’ experience with a new approach for type I diabetic uremic patients: simultaneous cadaver-donor pancreas and living-donor kidney transplant (SPLK). Summary Background Data Simultaneous cadaver transplantation (SPK) alone followed by solitary (PAK) have been options patients. SPK graft survival has historically exceeded that of transplantation. Recent improvement in rates narrowed advantage seen SPK. PAK, however, requires sequential operations. In contrast to...
"Always-on" smart speakers have raised privacy and security concerns, to address which vendors introduced customizable settings. But, does the act of customizing one's preferences any effects on user experience trust? To this question, we developed an app for Amazon Alexa conducted a study (N = 90). Our data show that affordance customize settings enhances trust usability regular users, while it has adverse power users. In addition, only enabling privacy-setting customization without...
Abstract In 2016, air pollutant emissions in the Republic of Korea were 795,044 metric tons (hereafter tons) CO, 1,248,309 NO x , 358,951 SO 611,539 TSP, 233,085 PM 10 100,247 2.5 16,401 BC, 1,024,029 VOCs, and 301,301 NH 3 . Including energy production, thirteen emission sources, which comprise national inventory, classified by their characteristics into five sectors (Energy, Industry, Road, Non-road, Everyday Activities Other Emission Sources) to analyze relative contributions emissions....
Active listening is a well-known skill applied in human communication to build intimacy and elicit self-disclosure support wide variety of cooperative tasks. When conversational UIs, active from machines can also greater by signaling the users that they are being heard, which have positive outcomes. However, it takes considerable engineering effort training embed skills at scale, given need personalize active-listening cues individual their specific utterances. A more generic solution needed...
