When data classes are differently represented in one v. other data segment to be mined, it generates the imbalanced two-class data challenge. Many health-related datasets comprising categorical data are faced with the class...
PURPOSE: Recent advances in diagnostic imaging techniques and soft tissue endoscopy now allow for precise diagnosis and management of extra-articular hip pathology. The aim of this scoping review is to present an evidence-based...
BACKGROUND: Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) has been extensively investigated and is strongly associated with athletic participation. PURPOSE: To assess (1) the prevalence of cam-type FAI across various sports; (2) whether...
AIMS: The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted and delayed medical and surgical examinations where attendance is required in person. Our article aims to outline the validity of online assessment, the range of benefits to both...
Sepsis is caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Immune responses determine the characteristics of sepsis. The body's protection against infection involves danger signal surveillance and recognition from nonself...
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of the immune response to major surgery, and the ways in which it may be modulated to improve postoperative outcomes. RECENT FINDINGS: Data from patients...
This paper begins with a comprehensive review into the existing GaN device models. Secondly, it identifies the need for a more accurate GaN switching model. A simple practical process based on radio frequency techniques...
Driver training schemes and eco-driving techniques can reduce fuel consumption by 10% but their effectiveness depends on the willingness of drivers to change their behaviour, and changes may be short lived. On board driver...
PURPOSE: To determine methods described in the literature to account for patients lost to follow-up (LTFU) in registry studies and whether rates of patient LTFU are within acceptable margins. METHODS: A scoping review, where a...
Critical illness is pragmatically defined as an acute illness resulting in organ dysfunction, necessitating organ support in specialised settings (intensive care units), to survive1. Despite current best care, ~30% of patients...
The deposition of tin sulfide (SnS) nanostructured films using a continuous spray pyrolysis technique is reported with an electric field present at the nozzle for influencing the atomization and the subsequent film deposition....
INTRODUCTION: Outcomes of hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement and concomitant moderate- to advanced hip osteoarthritis (Tönnis Grade II or greater) is still a matter of debate as findings in the literature are...
Driver training schemes and eco-driving techniques can reduce fuel consumption by 10% but their effectiveness depends on the willingness of drivers to change their behaviour, and changes may be short lived. On board driver...
INTRODUCTION: Stiffness following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a challenging complication and can result in a poor functional outcome. There is considerable debate concerning the definition, work-up, and optimal management...
Recent electrophysiological observations related to saccadic eye movements in rhesus monkeys, suggest a prediction of the sensory consequences of movement in the Purkinje cell layer of the cerebellar oculomotor vermis (OMV). A...
The banking sector as one of the economic drivers plays an important role in society. Over time, bank operations did not only raise funds from the public but were more complex. The development of the banking industry can be seen...
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was investigate the relationship between version and torsional abnormalities of the acetabulum, femur and tibia in patients with symptomatic FAI. METHODS: A systematic review was performed...
We report progress towards optimisation of artificial magnetic domain structures for efficient spin transfer torque domain wall (DW) motion. Co/Pt multilayer samples have been sputtered on (100) Si/SiO substrates and...

Nurses compliance in hand washing was one of the factors that have a major influence on the health of nurses and patients in the prevention of nosocomial infections, since the nurses were interacting with patients for 24 hours....
Today the desert margins of northwest India are dry and unable to support large populations, but were densely occupied by the populations of the Indus Civilization during the middle to late Holocene. The hydroclimatic conditions...
