Epidemiological study of burns at the Hospital of Clinics, Federal University of the Triângulo Mineiro [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Cirurgia Plástica, 2020
Introduction: Burns are a serious public health problem. Knowledge of the main epidemiological data of affected patients is paramount for preventing and establishing the best clinical treatment for these individuals.

Physics of plasma burn-through and DYON simulations for the JET ITER-like wall [PDF]

Nuclear Fusion, Vol.53, No.8, August 2013, p.083024, 2013
This paper presents the DYON simulations of the plasma burn-through phase at Joint European Torus (JET) with the ITER-like wall. The main purpose of the study is to validate the simulations with the ITER-like wall, made of beryllium. Without impurities, the burn-through process of a pure deuterium plasma is described using DYON simulations, and the ...

Descriptive Study of Occupational Accidents and their Causes among Electricity Distribution Company Workers at an Eight-year Period in Iran

Safety and Health at Work, 2013
Background: Occupational accidents are unplanned events that cause damage. The socio-economic impacts and human costs of accidents are tremendous around the world. Many fatalities happen every year in workplaces such as electricity distribution companies.

Macroscopic polarization in the nominally ergodic relaxor state of lead magnesium niobate [PDF]

Applied Physics Letters Vol. 117, 102901 (2020), 2020
Macroscopic polarity and its dynamic response to external electric fields and temperature in the nominally ergodic relaxor phase of pristine lead magnesium niobate crystals and ceramics, Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3 (PMN), were investigated. Dynamic pyroelectric measurements provide evidence for persistent macroscopic polarity of the samples. Annealing experiments

Plasma burn-through simulations using the DYON code and predictions for ITER [PDF]

Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion, Vol.55, No.12, December 2013, p.124032, 2014
This paper will discuss simulations of the full ionization process (i.e. plasma burn-through), fundamental to creating high temperature plasma. By means of an applied electric field, the gas is partially ionized by the electron avalanche process. In order for the electron temperature to increase, the remaining neutrals need to be fully ionized in the ...

Evaluation of the effectiveness of neurofeedback in the reduction of Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in a patient following high-voltage electric shock with the use of ERPs

Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2015
Background The aim of our research was an evaluation of the effectiveness of neurofeedback in reducing the symptoms of Post-trauma stress disorder (PTSD), which had developed as a result of a high-voltage electric burn to the head. Quantitative EEG (QEEG)

Boundary Attention Mapping (BAM): Fine-grained saliency maps for segmentation of Burn Injuries [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Burn injuries can result from mechanisms such as thermal, chemical, and electrical insults. A prompt and accurate assessment of burns is essential for deciding definitive clinical treatments. Currently, the primary approach for burn assessments, via visual and tactile observations, is approximately 60%-80% accurate.

A step-by-step intraoperative strategy during one-stage reconstruction of an acute electrical burn injury in the neck for superior surgical outcome in India: a case report [PDF]

Journal of Trauma and Injury
Electrical burn injuries can cause more damage than clinical evaluations initially suggest. The energy waves penetrate from the surface to the deepest layers of tissue, causing extensive harm at every level. The neck is a critical area, both functionally

Clinico-etiological profile and outcome of electric burns at RLJH, a tertiary care centre of South India

, 2014
Introduction: The incidence of electrical accidents has increased, due to use of electricity in the house hold, institutions and industries. Electrical injuries can cause extensive disFigurement to that of significant functional disability and sometimes ...
