Total and segmental liver volume variations by Abdalla, Eddie

“…This reproducible, noninvasive procedure is necessary because significant interpatient variation is believed to exist in the relative contributions of the hepatic segments to TLV.11 CT volumetry accurately predicts TLV on the basis of body surface area or body weight,12 which may achieve the true goal of preoperative CT volumetry of the liver, that is to estimate the individual patient's hepatic metabolic demands after resection or transplantation.7 Complications associated with technical aspects of liver surgery are decreasing, and focus has concurrently shifted to analysis of postoperative complications after major hepatic resection and liver transplantation on the basis of liver remnant volume and graft volume.3., 4., 6., 7., 8. and 13. …”

Structure of a reattaching supersonic shear layer by Samimy, M.

“…The preliminary results show that large-scale relatively organized structures with limited spanwise extent form in the free shear layer. Some of these structures appear to survive the recompression and reattachment processes, while others break down into smaller scales and the flow becomes increasingly three-dimensional. …”

Resection of liver metastases from breast cancer by Abbott, Daniel

“…On multivariate analysis, estrogen receptor–negative primary breast disease (P = .009; hazard ratio, 3.3; 95% confidence interval, 1.4–8.2) and preoperative progressive disease (P = .003; hazard ratio, 3.8; 95% confidence interval, 1.6–9.2) were associated with decreased overall survival. Conclusion Resection of breast cancer liver metastases in patients with estrogen receptor–positive disease that is responding to chemotherapy is associated with improved survival. …”

Shear Strengthening of Reinforced Concrete Beams Using CFRP Wraps by Mhanna, Haya H.

“…The experimental test results showed that the beam strengthened by U-Wrapped CFRP sheets increased the control beam’s shear strength by 114.82%, while the increase in shear capacity of the completely wrapped equivalent WBR1 and WBR2 beams over their control unstrengthened specimens was 69.28% and 201.63%, respectively. …”
