This study examined the clinical and radiographic results in patients with lumbar disc herniation treated surgically one of four procedures: two different methods herniotomy using a posterior approach percutaneous nucleotomy.The authors goal was to identify structural changes after each procedures correlate them outcome.The details procedure via or by nucleotomy as described many have not been consistent. Furthermore, previous reviews these studies less than satisfactory.One hundred...
This biomechanical study of fractures in cadaver vertebrae used specially designed pedicle screws to determine screw strains during loading two different fixation constructs.The authors determined the relative benefit adding offset sublaminar hooks standard constructs reduce bending moments and prevent failure sagittal collapse.Clinical studies have demonstrated a high incidence early short-segment instrumentation treat unstable burst fractures. Strategies construct include longer...
Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) is one of the aggressive peripheral neoplasms with a poor prognosis. Accumulating evidence demonstrates that escape from adaptive immunity hallmark ATLL pathogenesis. However, mechanisms by which cells evade natural killer (NK)-cell-mediated have been poorly understood. Here we show CD48 expression in determines sensitivity for NK-cell-mediated cytotoxicity against cells. We performed unbiased genome-wide clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic...
We show here how a Ru(bpy)2(CE-bpy) complex can be used for the ECL detection of sodium ion in both aqueous and nonaqueous media. Recognition Na+ by crown ether moiety CE-bpy results significant increase emission intensity complex.
The purpose of this study was to compare the success rate bony fusion and clinical results rigid instrumentation, nonrigid no instrumentation for a single level lesion degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis. Thirty-three patients with spondylolisthesis L4 who had undergone posterior decompression posterolateral autogenous bone graft that included facet joints stabilization newly designed syndesmoplasty using Leeds-Keio artificial ligaments (Group Leeds-Keio-nonrigid). Thirty-four same...
We have succeeded in observing the longitudinal microstructure of very narrow Cu interconnects for first time. found that average grain sizes along direction interconnect trenches increased with increasing line width, and they were 278 nm 80 nm, 303 100 346 180 wide interconnects. Ratios size to width 3.5 3.03 1.9 widths.

The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare Japan has set the guideline values for indoor air concentrations 13 volatile organic compounds (VOCs) semi-volatile from 1997 to 2002. However, in 2019, three these substances, including xylene, were revised regulated more strictly. Additionally, manual analysis VOCs air, established 2001 by Committee on Sick House Syndrome: Indoor Air Pollution, not been updated over 20 years. In this study, we confirmed that current analytical method using solvent...
ABSTRACT We have designed two innovative surgical procedures using the Leeds-Keio artificial ligament to solve difficult problems caused by difference in physical properties between bone structure and spinal implants, such as pedicle screw systems, used for treating unstable lumbar spine. The aim at intervertebral immobilization or reinforcement of a posterior interbody fusion. Twenty-one patients with over 2 years follow up were evaluated. clinical results showed these be advantageous...
The leaf extract of Ginkgo Biloba L . exhibits a variety pharmacological effects through an antioxidant action. We examined the (Ginkgolon‐24) on production fibronectin induced by oxidized low‐density lipoprotein (oxLDL) in rat mesangial cells. Stimulation with oxLDL accelerated preceding generation reactive oxygen species (ROS). Pretreatment Ginkgolon‐24 inhibited oxLDL‐induced as well ROS generation. also elicited activation SP‐1, nuclear factor‐ κ B, and cAMP response element‐binding...
Grain size distributions and average grain sizes in the longitudinal direction of Cu interconnect 50-, 70- 80-nm-wide interconnects were evaluated compared with resistivities each interconnect. After annealing, standard deviation for 50-nm increased to 27.5, microstructure grew larger than that as-deposited interconnects. The value normal distribution histogram a wire was found be much smaller those 80-nm wires after annealing. This implies adequate growth should not expected very narrow...
