Minimally Invasive Repair of Pectus Carinatum [PDF]

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2018
The second most common deformity of the anterior chest wall, pectus carinatum, is a diverse deformity that has been largely managed using open techniques. This study reviews clinical experience with a newly designed bar for minimally invasive repair of pectus carinatum.We reviewed the records of all patients recorded in our Chest Wall Deformities ...

Minimally Invasive Surgical Valve Repair

The Heart Surgery Forum, 2010
Minimal-access valve repair was introduced in the 1990s and is becoming an accepted option for patients undergoing valve surgery. Minimally invasive surgical valve repair reduces the degree of surgical insult, produces less postoperative pain, uses less blood, and is associated with better cosmetic results.Between July 2008 and February 2009, 17 ...

Prioritized Repairing and Consistent Query Answering in Relational Databases [PDF]

, 2011
A consistent query answer in an inconsistent database is an answer obtained in every (minimal) repair. The repairs are obtained by resolving all conflicts in all possible ways.

Availability of a Periodically Inspected System Maintained through Several Minimal Repairs before a Replacement or a Perfect Repair

Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2013
The instantaneous availability of a periodically inspected system with several minimal repairs before a replacement or a perfect repair is studied. First, we investigate two concrete minimal repair models with periodic inspection and constant repair time

DNA end resection by Dna2–Sgs1–RPA and its stimulation by Top3–Rmi1 and Mre11–Rad50–Xrs2 [PDF]

, 2010
The repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) by homologous recombination requires processing of broken ends. For repair to start, the DSB must first be resected to generate a 3′-single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) overhang, which becomes a substrate for the DNA

Homeostatic Fault Tolerance in Spiking Neural Networks : A Dynamic Hardware Perspective [PDF]

, 2017
Fault tolerance is a remarkable feature of biological systems and their self-repair capability influence modern electronic systems. In this paper, we propose a novel plastic neural network model, which establishes homeostasis in a spiking neural network.

Outcome Of Totally Extra-Peritoneal (TEP) Mesh Repair Among Patients With Unilateral Primary Inguinal Hernia: A Single Center Experience

Journal of Society of Surgeons of Nepal, 2023
Introduction: Inguinal hernias were conventionally treated with open methods like hernioplasty and herniorrhaphy. However, with the development in minimal access surgery, the trends have changed and surgeons are also performing the TEP and TAPP ...

Minimal repair under a step-stress test

Statistics & Probability Letters, 2009
In the one- and multi-sample cases, in the context of life-testing reliability experiments, we introduce minimal repair processes under a simple step-stress test, based on exponential distributions and an associated cumulative exposure model, and then develop likelihood inference for such a model.
