Abstract Background The optimum protocol for expander volume adjustment with respect to the timing and application of radiotherapy remains controversial.Methods Eighteen New Zealand rabbits were divided into three groups.Metallic port integrated anatomic breast expanders of 250 cc were implanted on the back of each animal and controlled expansion w
Terasi, a traditional fermented shrimp paste from Indonesia, is commonly made from salted planktonic shrimp (Acetes japonicus) undergoing spontaneous lactic acid fermentation.In spite of its broad use and appreciated distinctive flavor, consuming terasi could be injurious for human consumption due to the presence of toxic compounds that are related
Mycoplasma pneumonia is common agent causing community acquired pneumonia in younger population.However, the course of illness is usually benign and is rarely Tea Light Holder associated with pulmonary complications.We report a 27 years old female patient with unilateral pneumonia followed by pleural effusion and adhesions on the same side.This pot
Quantum computers have been widely speculated to offer significant advantages in obtaining the ground state of difficult Hamiltonian in chemistry and physics.In this work, we first propose a Lyapunov control-inspired strategy to accelerate the well-established imaginary-time method for ground-state preparation.We also dig for the source of accelera
The structure of free-surface flows is experimentally investigated in a laboratory flume with a compound cross-section consisting of a central main channel (MC) and two adjacent floodplains (FPs).The study focuses on the effects of transverse currents on: (i) mixing layers and quasi-two-dimensional coherent structures at the interfaces between MC a
