Aim
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), followed by laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC), has an important role in the treatment of gallstone cholangitis. The aim of the present study was to investigate the optimal timing of LC, and factors that predispose early recurrence in patients who undergo ERCP for common bile duct (CBD) stones.

This paper proposes a generalized method for tracking of multiple objects from moving, cooperative vehicles - bringing together an Unscented Kalman Filter for vehicle localization and extending a Sequential Monte Carlo Probability Hypothesis Density filter with a novel cooperative fusion algorithm for tracking. The latter ensures that the fusion of information from cooperating vehicles is not limited...
We report our experience with outcomes of poliomyelitis in the Asian population.Sixteen total knee replacements in 14 patients with polio-affected knees were followed up for at least 18 months. Follow-up assessment included scoring with the American Knee Society Score (AKSS), Oxford knee score, and Short Form 36 Health Survey scores.The mean AKSS improved from 25.59 preoperatively to 82.94 at 24 months,...
A key problem existing in scalable video based on wavelet transforms is the incidence of aliasing at reduced spatial resolutions. The problem exists because of a fundamental limit in the design of wavelet filters. However, typical video frames are observed to have a strong rolloff in the high frequencies before the Nyquist frequency, which we term the "deadzone". In this paper, we propose...
