Spinal Cord Schistosomiasis: A Rare and Severe Presentation of a Common Disease—A Case Report and Review of Literature

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Spinal cord schistosomiasis (SCS) is a rare but potentially disabling manifestation of Schistosoma mansoni infection caused by ectopic deposition of parasite eggs within the spinal cord via Batson's vertebral venous plexus, resulting in granulomatous inflammation and neurological injury.

Numerical simulation of a hydrocarbon fuelled valveless pulsejet

Propulsion and Power Research, 2014
Jet propulsion technology has been limited to being identified largely with turbojets and turbo-machinery driven jet engines. Of late there has been a renewed interest in pulsejet technology and it has once again caught the imagination of academia.

Successful Treatment of Paranasal Sinus Metastasis From Renal Cell Carcinoma With Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors and Radiotherapy: A Case Report

IJU Case Reports, Volume 9, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) metastasis to the paranasal sinuses is rare and lacks standard treatment, particularly for unresectable tumors. We report a case of sphenoid sinus metastasis with sarcomatoid differentiation successfully managed with radiation therapy and immunotherapy.

Flexible Electrohydrodynamic Fluid-Driven Valveless Water Pump via Immiscible Interface

Cyborg and Bionic Systems
The conventional electrohydrodynamic (EHD) pump is limited to pumping functional and dielectric liquids, which restricts its applications in fields like microfluidics, food safety, and materials production. In this study, we present a flexible water pump

Management of maternal ventriculo-atrial shunt malfunction during pregnancy

Interdisciplinary Neurosurgery, 2016
Hydrocephalic females reaching childbearing age is increasing due to treatment advances. It has been suggested that ventriculo-atrial (VA) shunts be preferred over ventriculo-peritoneal (VP) shunts during pregnancy.

Clinical outcomes of the PAUL glaucoma implant in primary open‐angle and pseudoexfoliative glaucoma eyes after failed glaucoma surgeries

Acta Ophthalmologica, Volume 104, Issue 2, Page e183-e190, March 2026.
Abstract Purpose This study assesses the PAUL® glaucoma implant (PGI) in primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and pseudoexfoliative glaucoma (PEXG) after failed glaucoma surgery. Given PEXG's more aggressive nature, limited research exists on PGI outcomes in this subgroup. This study aims to compare PGI's efficacy and safety in both conditions. Methods A

Tetralogy of Fallot

JACC: Case Reports, 2019
The natural history of tetralogy of Fallot depends on whether a transannular pulmonary valve patch or shunt surgery was necessary in infancy. This case illustrates the feasibility of cardiac rest on extracorporeal membranous oxygenation for a very ill ...

DYNAMICS OF FLUID IN OSCILLATORY FLOW: THE Z COMPONENT [PDF]

Journal of Engineering Science and Technology, 2015
In an oscillatory flow, the resistance to flow, more appropriately defined as the impedance to flow, is a function of oscillating frequency, which refers to the harmonic composition of the driving pressure wave. Flow in an elastic tube may be resisted in
