A history of an escalating chronic intractable pain in a patient with cryoglobulinemia, vasculitis, and severe cutaneous ulcerations is presented. strategy progressive, multi-agent, N-methyl-D-aspartate-receptor (NMDA-R) blockade that resulted adequate control three-fold reduction opioid consumption described. Diagnostic process neuropathic the role NMDA-R development hyperalgesia are briefly reviewed. Thereafter, existing clinical literature describing use Ketamine, major antagonist for...
Correct restoration of the joint line is generally considered as crucial when performing total knee arthroplasty (TKA). During revision however, elevation occurs frequently. The general belief that this negatively affects clinical outcome, but reasons are still not well understood.In cadaveric in vitro study biomechanical consequences were investigated using a previously validated cadaver model simulating active deep squats and passive flexion-extension cycles. Knee specimens sequentially...
Background: House officers frequently lack basic competency in end-of-life care. Few studies have evaluated educational interventions deliberately utilizing physicians' learning strategies, particularly the context of a concomitant effort at modification practice patterns. Study design: Prospective controlled trial preintervention and postintervention cross-sectional surveys. Participants: Internal medicine residents university hospital their first, second, third years training. Survey: A...
Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) requiring dialysis commonly occurs in critically ill patients and is associated with high mortality. Factors impacting outcomes of individuals AKI who underwent continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), including early versus late initiation duration CRRT, were examined. Methods: Survival recovery function for the intensive care unit retrospectively examined over a 7-year period. mortality analyzed based on severity illness as defined by Cleveland...
Phase shifting transformers are widely used for control of active-power-flows in power systems. Modern variant phase transformer is (semiconductor-controlled) static shifter. All the mentioned devices allow changing shift between voltages at interconnected busbars. Those called as shifters play important role a system. The paper deals with modeling shifter aim steady state analyses such (optimal) flow, estimation. In paper, after review presented, critical their models given. For each model,...
The paper presents a comparative investigations of estimation power system state in polar and rectangular coordinate systems. with the use weighted least squares method is considered. During investigations, impact system, stress data redundancy on such parameters as: number iterations, condition gain matrix characterizing accuracy calculation results reliability analyzed.
A physician workgroup of the American Academy Hospice and Palliative Medicine sought to define curricular milestones (CMs) for hospice palliative medicine (HPM) Fellowship Programs. The developed list CMs would serve as components upon which organize curriculum standardize what teach during training. These complement entrustable professional activities previously by this group new specialty-specific reporting (RMs) HPM through Accreditation Council Graduate Medical Education.The objective...
Aims: Total knee arthroplasty in patients with fixed valgus deformity is a demanding procedure. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical results using lateral approach [LA] versus medial [MA] treatment deformities. Methods: This single-center compared 143 consecutive (mean 21.55° valgus, mean age 68.2 years) undergoing LA Knee Arthroplasty [TKA] 50 16.58° 67.2 MA TKA. follow-up period 5.1 years (2−10 years). Data collected from operative notes, routine postoperative visits, and...
Background: Referral patterns for palliative medicine consultation (PMC) by intensivists patients requiring continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) have not been studied. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed clinical data on who received CRRT in a tertiary referral center between 1999 and 2006 to determine timeliness effectiveness of PMC referrals mortality rate as surrogate safety among receiving acute kidney injury. Results: Over one-fifth (21.1%) the 230 studied were referred (n =...
The aim of the study was to determine degree posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) degeneration and reduction in number its mechanoreceptors, patients with advanced degenerative joint disease. PCLs taken from group 50 mean age 70.7 (53-84) years a diagnosis idiopathic osteoarthritis undergoing condylar total knee arthroplasty were compared those form control 10 joints cadavers. Groups matched regard sex age. Histological examination showed changes an inflammatory process no significant signs...
In the clinical practice of palliative medicine, recommended communication models fail to approximate truth suffering associated with an impending death. I provide evidence from patients' stories and empiric research alike support this observation. Rather than attributing deficiency inadequate training or skills, examine epistemological premises biomedical language governing patient-physician communication. demonstrate that contemporary biomedicine faces a fundamental aporetic occlusion in...
The paper presents comparative studies of state estimation for a power system with and without the UPFC device. Weighted least squares is considered. Such parameters are taken into account as: condition number gain matrix, characterizing accuracy results, iterations in computational process. During investigation, impact existence on mentioned analyzed different coordinate systems, which vector considered, levels stress data redundancy. In paper, considered determined IEEE 14-bus test system....
The paper deals with evaluation of a power system from the view-point voltage stability. It is concerned indices which are proposed as collapse proximity indicators. In existing papers, many such can be found. paper, so-called line stability indices, defined using static approach to study stability, taken into account. If close 1, considered critical. After described, investigations correlation values mentioned and results single-contingency analysis for presented. shows, that not always...
Power system state estimation is one of the functions performed in modern control centers. When FACTS devices are a power they should be taken into account estimation. In paper, existence UPFC, i.e. most universal device, considered. UPFC can operate different modes. It with full utilization its possibilities or as SSSC STATCOM. The aim paper to present results investigations features use knowledge about actual operating modes UPFC. have been made for WLS After proposed approach outlined...
The paper presents a comparative investigations of the state estimation power system with phase shifting transformer in polar and rectangular coordinate systems. weighted-least-squares method using augment matrix approach is considered. During investigations, one performs analysis impact system, which vector considered, data redundancy on such parameters as: number iterations, condition coefficient matrix, characterizing accuracy calculation results.
