Iatrogenic Pneumothorax: Etiology, Incidence and Risk Factors
(GEORG THIEME VERLAG KG, 2009)
Background: We discuss the etiology and incidence of iatrogenic pneumothorax (IPnx) which can develop after invasive procedures performed for diagnostic and/or therapeutic purposes, and the efforts to prevent this complication ...
Nursing students' level of autonomy: A study from Turkey
(CHURCHILL LIVINGSTONE, 2009)
Nursing curriculum programs developed to train future professional nurses, methods of teaching and learning and practice can either prepare or be an obstacle to the students' thinking and acting like independent professionals. ...
Microleakage in Resin Composite Restorations After Antimicrobial Pre-treatments: Effect of KTP Laser, Chlorhexidine Gluconate and Clearfil Protect Bond
(OPERATIVE DENTISTRY INC, 2009)
The current study evaluated the influence of KTP (Potassium-Titanyl-Phosphate) laser irradiation, 2% chlorhexidine gluconate and Clearfil Protect Bond on the microleakage of Class V composite restorations. Thirty human ...
ON b-CLOSED SPACES AND theta-b-CONTINUOUS FUNCTIONS
(SPRINGER HEIDELBERG, 2009)
In this paper, we give several characterizations of b-closed spaces which were introduced by J. H. Park [Acta Math. Hungar. 110 (4) (2006) 347-359]. We introduce and investigate a new class of functions which transform ...
Dronedarone: A Promising Alternative for the Management of Atrial Fibrillation
(SPRINGER, 2009)
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most frequently encountered chronic arrhythmia associated with significant morbidity. It is generally encountered in the elderly, and will presumably become more prevalent in the future due ...
Geochemistry of the Middle Miocene Collision-related Yamadagi (Eastern Anatolia) Calc-alkaline Volcanics, Turkey
(SCIENTIFIC TECHNICAL RESEARCH COUNCIL TURKEY-TUBITAK, 2009)
Major, trace element and K-Ar age determinations are reported for a suite from the Yamadagi volcanics in the Eastern Anatolia. The exposed rocks mainly consist of medium-potassium calc-alkaline basaltic andesites, andesites ...
In Vitro Amoebicidal Activity of Salvia staminea and Salvia caespitosa on Acanthamoeba castellanii and Their Cytotoxic Potentials on Corneal Cells
(MARY ANN LIEBERT, INC, 2009)
Background/Aims: Amoebic keratitis is difficult to treat with total efficacy in some patients because of cysts, which are less susceptible than trophozoites to the usual treatments. We investigated the in vitro effectiveness ...
Optical intersubband transitions in double Si delta-doped GaAs under an applied magnetic field
(ACADEMIC PRESS LTD- ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2009)
For different applied magnetic fields, the intersubband transitions of double Si delta-doped GaAs structures is theoretically investigated for a uniform donor distribution. The electronic structure has been calculated by ...
Ground state energy of excitons in quantum dot treated variationally via Hylleraas-like wavefunction
(IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2009)
In this work, the effects of quantum confinement on the ground state energy of a correlated electron-hole pair in a spherical and in a disc-like quantum dot have been investigated as a function of quantum dot size. Under ...
