Low mechanical index contrast mode versus high mechanical index contrast mode: which is a more sensitive method for detecting Sonazoid microbubbles in the liver of normal subjects?

Journal of medical ultrasonics (2001)
PURPOSE: Using the low mechanical index (MI) contrast mode and the high MI contrast mode of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography, we evaluated which method is more sensitive for detecting Sonazoid microbubbles in the liver of normal subjects.

The relationship of blood transfusion with peri-operative and long-term outcomes after major hepatectomy for metastatic colorectal cancer: a multi-institutional study of 456 patients.

HPB : the official journal of the International Hepato Pancreato Biliary Association
BACKGROUND: Data on prognostic implications of peri-operative blood transfusion around resection of colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM) are conflicting. This retrospective study assesses the association of transfusion with complications and dis...

Reoperations following Robot-Assisted Radical Cystectomy: A Decade of Experience.

The Journal of urology
PURPOSE: There is a paucity of data regarding the operative management of complications after robot-assisted radical cystectomy. We reviewed operative management of robot-assisted radical cystectomy specific complications during our 10-year experienc...

Forecasting Natural Gas Prices Using Wavelets, Time Series, and Artificial Neural Networks.

PloS one
Following the unconventional gas revolution, the forecasting of natural gas prices has become increasingly important because the association of these prices with those of crude oil has weakened. With this as motivation, we propose some modified hybri...

Incidence of nonresponse and individual patterns of response following sprint interval training.

Applied physiology, nutrition, and metabolism = Physiologie appliquee, nutrition et metabolisme
The current study sought to explore the incidence of nonresponders for maximal or submaximal performance following a variety of sprint interval training (SIT) protocols. Data from 63 young adults from 5 previously published studies were utilized in t...

Long-chain polynucleotide filler for skin rejuvenation: efficacy and complications in five patients.

Dermatologic therapy
Aging well has become the new target of preventative medicine, and aesthetic dermatology can contribute to this request. The polynucleotide (PN) containing products not only fill the space, but improve tissue regeneration, resulting in more natural t...

Defective secretion of Prostaglandin F2α during development of idiopathic persistent corpus luteum in mares.

Domestic animal endocrinology
Five mares that developed idiopathic persistent corpus luteum (PCL) were compared with 5 mares with apparently normal interovulatory intervals (IOIs). Progesterone (P4) and a metabolite of prostaglandin F2α (PGFM) were assayed daily beginning on the ...

Robust fixed-time synchronization of delayed Cohen-Grossberg neural networks.

Neural networks : the official journal of the International Neural Network Society
The fixed-time master-slave synchronization of Cohen-Grossberg neural networks with parameter uncertainties and time-varying delays is investigated. Compared with finite-time synchronization where the convergence time relies on the initial synchroniz...
