Discriminating between Nasal and Mouth Breathing [PDF]
The recommendation to change breathing patterns from the mouth to the nose can have a significantly positive impact upon the general well being of the individual. We classify nasal and mouth breathing by using an acoustic sensor and intelligent signal processing techniques.

Patient specific numerical simulation of flow in the human upper airways for assessing the effect of nasal surgery [PDF]
The study is looking into the potential of using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) as a tool for predicting the outcome of surgery for alleviation of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). From pre- and post-operative computed tomography (CT) of an OSAS patient, the pre- and post-operative geometries of the patient's upper airways were generated ...

Abstract Objective Prior to 2019, termination of pregnancy (TOP) was unlawful in Ireland. We sought to examine the impact of legislative change on TOP for major congenital heart disease (CHD) and its effect on parental decision‐making regarding the options of complex surgery, TOP, or palliative perinatal care.

Abstract Background Hormone pre‐treatment is still used before assisted reproductive technique (ART) in endometriotic women, but evidence supporting this recommendation is conflicting. Objectives To evaluate whether hormone pre‐treatment with gonadotropin‐releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists or progestogens could improve fertility in women with ...

Study of electrostatic septum design and its high-voltage discharge protection [PDF]
In this paper, we introduce the design of electrostatic septum (ESS) for the accelerator of Shanghai Advanced Proton Therapy (SAPT), and discuss its mechanical structure and the material selection of the electrode. The beam loss on the septum is studied, and the calculation results are given by the particle simulation and by the formula which is ...

Topography of the nuclei and distribution of Acetylcholinesterase activity in the septum of the telencephalon in man [PDF]
Distribution of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity in the septum of the telencephalon in man was studied in 15 human brains using the acetylthiocholine method. Highest activity of AChE was found in the nucleus of the diagonal band and nucleus accumbens, and lowest in the Lateral nucleus. Comparison of histochemical results with cellular structure and
