ROLE OF BIOLOGICAL MESH IN SURGICAL TREATMENT OF PARACOLOSTOMY HERNIAS [PDF]
Paracolostomy hernia is a frequent complication of intestinal stoma. Its correction can be made through relocation of the colostomy or by keeping it in place and performing abdominal wall reinforcement through direct suturing with or without a prosthesis.Results of surgical treatment of paracolostomy hernias were analyzed in 22 patients who underwent ...

This paper proposes two projector‐based Hopfield neural network (HNN) estimators for online, constrained parameter estimation under time‐varying data, additive disturbances, and slowly drifting physical parameters. The first is a constraint‐aware HNN that enforces linear equalities and inequalities (via slack neurons) and continuously tracks the ...

Differentiation Treatment Applied to Lung Cancer Model Reduces Pathogenic Traits in Vitro
Non‐small cell lung cancer cells (A549) treated with a differentiation medium showed strong reduction in proliferation, migration, clonogenicity, spheroid formation and stemness markers, with enhanced adhesion properties and alveolar features, all pointing to a notably less aggressive phenotype in support of differentiation therapy as a promising ...

ErB4 and NdB4 nanostructured powders are produced by mechanochemical synthesis. 5 h mechanical alloying and 4 M HCl acid leaching are used in the production. ErB4 and NdB4 powders exhibit maximum magnetization of 0.4726 emu g−1 accompanied with an antiferromagnetic‐to‐paramagnetic phase transition at about TN = 18 K and 0.132 emu g−1 with a maximum at ...
