Wound closing is critical to the completion of any surgical operation. An imperfect closure causes edge isolation, creating a possible route for bacterial contamination, which can lead to infection and scarring. While tissue adhesives and staples are now

Fibrin glue versus sutures for conjunctival autografting in primary pterygium surgery.
BACKGROUND Pterygium, a growth of the conjunctiva over the cornea, is a progressive disease leading in advanced stages to visual impairment, restriction of ocular motility, chronic inflammation and cosmetic concerns.

A homological action on sutured instanton homology [PDF]
We define a homological action on sutured instanton Floer homology. This action is well-defined up to scalars, and behaves well under connected sums and sutured manifold decompositions. As an application, we show that instanton knot homology detects link splitting for two-component links.

An Improved Method of an Image Mosaic of a Tea Garden and Tea Tree Target Extraction
UAV may be limited by its flight height and camera resolution when aerial photography of a tea garden is carried out. The images of the tea garden contain trees and weeds whose vegetation information is similar to tea tree, which will affect tea tree ...

Dehn surgeries on knots in product manifolds [PDF]
We show that if a surgery on a knot in a product sutured manifold yields the same product sutured manifold, then this knot is a 0-- or 1--crossing knot. The proof uses techniques from sutured manifold theory.
