Hemodynamic effect of Neuroform stent on intimal hyperplasia and thrombus formation in a carotid aneurysm by Jou, Liang-Der

“…An 8 mm cavernous carotid aneurysm with a wide neck was treated by a Neuroform stent first and by coils five weeks later. A comparison of the difference in morphology during this five-week period reveals the presence of intimal hyperplasia in the internal carotid artery, 1.3 mm thick at the proximal end and 1 mm at the distal end of the stent, and 1 mm thick thrombus at the postero-inferior side of the aneurysm. …”

Epidemiology of injuries from fire, heat and hot substances: global, regional and national morbidity and mortality estimates from the Global Burden of Disease 2017 study by Spencer L James (8673927)

“…At the global level, the age-standardised mortality caused by fire, heat and hot substances significantly declined from 1990 to 2017, but regionally there was variability in age-standardised incidence with some regions experiencing an increase (eg, Southern Latin America) and others experiencing a significant decrease (eg, High-income North America).…”

Application of Zn-ferrite towards thermochemical utilization of carbon dioxide: A thermodynamic investigation by Rahul R. Bhosale (6467102)

“…At gas-to-gas heat recovery effectiveness equal to 0, the difference between the thermal energy required to drive the cycle at the ratio of the molar flow rate of inert sweep gas to the molar flow rate of ZnFe₂O₄ equal to 10 and 100 is 346.5 kW. However, as the gas-to-gas heat recovery effectiveness increases to 0.9, this difference decreases to 11.8 kW. …”

Old subjects with sepsis in the emergency department: trend analysis of case fatality rate by Andrea Fabbri (356760)

“…The relative proportion of subjects ≥80 years (overall, 52.9% of cases) and classified as high-risk did not change along the years. CFR decreased only in low-risk subjects (from 13.3 to 5.2%; P < 0.001), and particularly in those aged ≥80 (from 18.2 to 6.6%; P = 0.003), but not in high-risk individuals (from 69.9 to 64.2%; P = 0.713).…”

The efficacy of transcranial direct current stimulation in patients with medication overuse headaches secondary to chronic migraines (P4.128) by Ahdab, Rechdi

“…Conclusions: Our results show that cathodal tDCS over the visual cortex and anodal tDCS over the left DLPFC have a significant analgesic effect in MOH and effectively decrease the number of severe migraine days. There was also a significant decrease in the consumption of analgesic medications in the DLPFC group and in the pain intensity in the Occipital group. …”
