Persistent gastrocutaneous fistula (GCF) is a common complication after removal of a gastrostomy tube.Many different techniques for GCF closure have been described.A novel technique involving a Breast Pumps punch biopsy device was recently described, called the Punch Excision of Epithelialized Tract (PEET) procedure.This case report describes a ser
Gatewaying theWireless Sensor Networks
With the dev elopmen t of Internet of Things (IoT), Utility Gloves bridging wireless sensor netw orks (WSNs) with other netw orks has become importan t.We divide bridging solutions into tw o categ ories: the hardw are solutions and the middlew are solutions.The hardw are solutions have both low pow er short distance wireless interf aces and other t
Evaluation of the ability of fatty acid metabolism signature to predict response to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and prognosis of patients with locally advanced rectal cancer
Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) is widely used to treat patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC), and treatment responses vary.Fatty acid metabolism Hawaii (FAM) is closely associated with carcinogenesis and cancer progression.In this study, we investigated the vital role of FAM on the gut microbiome and metabolism in the context of
Gynecologic-tract sparing extra peritoneal retrograde radical cystectomy with neobladder
OBJECTIVE: We report on a series of female patients with transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder who underwent extraperitoneal retrograde radical cystectomy sparing the female reproductive organs with neobladder creation.MATERIALS AND METHODS: 14 female patients between the ages of 45 and 72 years who underwent gynecologic-tract sparing cystecto
Mathematical modeling of solar radiation based on open access longmterm meteorological observation data
The relevance of the discussed issue is caused by increasing interest in employing renewable energy sources generators in autonomous energy systems of Siberia and Far East.The main aim of the study is to demonstrate the appliance of long-term local meteorological observations for implementation in mathematical models of Iqbal and Kasten-Czeplak Uti
