Cancer of the Throat: A Physician’s Experience as a Patient

Rambam Maimonides Medical Journal, 2016
The author, a practicing physician, was diagnosed with throat cancer and lost his vocal cords. He endured the side effects of radiation, repeated surgeries, and the effects of prolonged hospitalizations; confronted medical mistakes and discrimination ...

Ground state energy in a wormhole space-time [PDF]

, 2002
The ground state energy of the massive scalar field with non-conformal coupling $\xi$ on the short-throat flat-space wormhole background is calculated by using zeta renormalization approach.

Sensitivity of Nasopharyngeal, Nasal and Throat Swab for the Detection of SARS-CoV-2

medRxiv, 2020
Nasopharyngeal (NP), nasal and throat swabs are the most practical specimen sources to test for upper respiratory pathogens. We compared the sensitivity of NP, nasal and throat swabs to detect SARS-CoV-2 in community patients. Using detection at any site

Effect of Pore-Throat Microstructures on Formation Damage during Miscible CO2 Flooding of Tight Sandstone Reservoirs

, 2020
Pore and throat blockage and wettability alteration caused by asphaltene deposition are serious problems during the injection of CO₂ into subsurface reservoirs for enhanced oil recovery (EOR).

Review of congenital anomalies of ear, nose, and throat in a resource-challenged facility

Nigerian Journal of Medicine, 2023
Introduction: The complex pattern of development of the branchial arches predisposes to a myriad of congenital anomalies of the head-and-neck region. The ear, nose and throat (ENT) are by no means spared.

On Power Law Inflation in DBI Models [PDF]

, 2007
Inflationary models in string theory which identify the inflaton with an open string modulus lead to effective field theories with non-canonical kinetic terms: Dirac-Born-Infeld scalar field theories.

Numerical investigation of the cavitation performance of annular jet pumps with different profiles of suction chamber and throat inlet

Engineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics, 2020
To find the influence of the suction chamber and throat inlet profiles on the cavitation performance of an annular jet pump (AJP), a numerical method using a combination of the realizable k–ϵ turbulence model and the Schnerr–Sauer cavitation model was ...

Geometric structure of the generic static traversable wormhole throat [PDF]

, 1997
Traversable wormholes have traditionally been viewed as intrinsically topological entities in some multiply connected spacetime. Here, we show that topology is too limited a tool to accurately characterize a generic traversable wormhole: in general one ...

The ubiquitous throat

Nuclear Physics B, 2007
We attempt to quantify the widely-held belief that large hierarchies induced by strongly-warped geometries are common in the string theory landscape. To this end, we focus on the arguably best-understood subset of vacua -- type IIB Calabi-Yau orientifolds with non-perturbative Kaehler stabilization and a SUSY-breaking uplift (the KKLT setup).

Comparison of grooved and conventional Macintosh laryngoscope blades for throat pack insertion: A randomized control trial

Journal of Anaesthesiology Clinical Pharmacology
Background and Aims: Throat pack insertion is required for many otolaryngological surgeries under general anesthesia. To facilitate surgery, an oral Ring, Adair, and Elwyn (RAE) endotracheal tube is used.
