A comparative study examining laparoscopic and open inguinal hernia repair in children: a retrospective study from a single center in China

open access: yesBMC Surgery, 2020
Background Pediatric inguinal hernia (PIH) is a common disease in children. Laparoscopic hernia repair (LHR) has developed rapidly in recent years, but there are still different opinions compared with traditional open hernia repair (OHR).

Induced cavities for photonic quantum gates

open access: yes, 2017
Effective cavities can be optically-induced in atomic media and employed to strengthen optical nonlinearities. Here we study the integration of induced cavities with a photonic quantum gate based on Rydberg blockade.

Dehalococcoides mccartyi strain CBDB1 takes up protons from the cytoplasm to reductively dehalogenate organohalides indicating a new modus of proton motive force generation

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Proton translocation across the cytoplasmic membrane is a vital process for all organisms. Dehalococcoides strains are strictly anaerobic organohalide respiring bacteria that lack quinones and cytochromes but express a large membrane-bound protein ...

Subword-based Stochastic Segment Modeling for Offline Arabic Handwriting Recognition [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper, we describe several experiments in which we use a stochastic segment model (SSM) to improve offline handwriting recognition (OHR) performance. We use the SSM to re-rank (re-score) multiple decoder hypotheses.

Time Varying Risk Aversion: An Application to Energy Hedging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Risk aversion is a key element of utility maximizing hedge strategies; however, it has typically been assigned an arbitrary value in the literature. This paper instead applies a GARCH-in-Mean (GARCH-M) model to estimate a time-varying measure of risk ...

OhsR acts as an organic peroxide-sensing transcriptional activator using an S-mycothiolation mechanism in Corynebacterium glutamicum

open access: yesMicrobial Cell Factories, 2018
Background Corynebacterium glutamicum is a well-known producer of various l-amino acids in industry. During the fermenting process, C. glutamicum unavoidably encounters oxidative stress due to a specific reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by ...

Proteome adaptations of the organohalide-respiring Desulfitobacterium hafniense strain DCB-2 to various energy metabolisms

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionDesulfitobacterium hafniense was isolated for its ability to use organohalogens as terminal electron acceptors via organohalide respiration (OHR). In contrast to obligate OHR bacteria, Desulfitobacterium spp.

Bioelectrochemical single reactor for reductive and oxidative removal of trichloroethylene from contaminated groundwater

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons such as trichloroethylene (TCE) are persistent groundwater contaminants due to improper disposal and low biodegradability. This work presents an innovative bioelectrochemical system for the integrated reductive/oxidative removal of TCE from contaminated water, implemented in a single tubular ...

Transabdominal pre-peritoneal repair procedure (TAPP) versus open hernia repair (OHR) in the treatment of inguinal hernia

open access: yesJournal of Mind and Medical Sciences, 2022
Inguinal hernia is a common condition, with about 30% of men and 6% of women developing this condition throughout their lifetime. Laparoscopic hernia repair procedures have become more and more important lately, due to the advantages of a fast recovery ...
