REMOVAL OF SYMPTOMATIC CRANIOFACIAL TITANIUM HARDWARE FOLLOWING CRANIOTOMY: CASE SERIES AND REVIEW


Improving flood forecasting capability of physically based distributed hydrological models by parameter optimization

Physically based distributed hydrological models (hereafter referred to as PBDHMs) divide the terrain of the whole catchment into a number of grid cells at fine resolution and assimilate different terrain data and precipitation to different cells.They are regarded to have the potential to improve the catchment hydrological process simulation and pr

Multiple revision surgeries after total hip arthroplasty in a patient with osteopetrosis: a case report with 24 years of follow-up

Abstract Osteopetrosis, also recognized as marble bone disease, denotes a rare hereditary skeletal condition.It is distinguished by faulty osteoclast resorption, resulting in universally rigid and brittle bones.Secondary osteoarthritis often occurs in young and middle-aged patients with osteopetrosis.They often have to have gaurd joint replacement

Locomotion-based Hybrid Salp Swarm Algorithm for Parameter Estimation of Fuzzy Representation-based Photovoltaic Modules

Identifying the 143 parameters of photovoltaic (PV) modules is significant for their design and simulation.Because of the instabilities in the weather action and land surface of the earth, which cause errors in measuring, a novel fuzzy represen-tation-based PV module is formulated and developed.In this paper, a novel locomotion-based hybrid salp sw

Strigolactone GR24 upregulates target genes of the cytoprotective transcription factor Nrf2 in skeletal muscle [version 2; referees: 2 approved]

GR24 is a synthetic strigolactone analog, demonstrated to regulate the development of plants and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi.GR24 possesses anti-cancer and anti-apoptotic properties, enhances insulin sensitivity and mitochondrial biogenesis in skeletal myotubes, inhibits adipogenesis, decreases inflammation in adipocytes and macrophages and downre
