The effect of the blowing and suction from one or two positions over the suction surface of NACA0012 airfoil on aerodynamic performance in turbulent flow [PDF]
One approach to improve the aerodynamic performance of airfoils and hydrofoils is inject a small amount of energy to the system (such as fluid injection or suction on the surface), to change the lift and drag.

A Meta-analysis of Slow Pull versus Suction for Endoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Tissue Acquisition
Background/Aims: Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided tissue acquisition is widely utilized as a diagnostic modality for intra-abdominal masses, but there remains debate regarding which suction technique, slow pull (SP) or conventional suction (CS), is ...

Incidence of seroma in abdominoplasty with versus without the use of drains and quilting sutures: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Introduction: Abdominoplasty, which aims to improve body contour, has been upgraded by its association with limited dissection of the cutaneous flap and quilting sutures in the same surgery to avoid the formation of postabdominoplasty seroma, a ...
