Background
The Perioperative Anticoagulation Use for Surgery Evaluation study prospectively evaluated a prespecified periprocedural interruption strategy of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) among patients with atrial fibrillation. Coagulation testing is widely available and frequently requested prior to invasive procedures. Coagulation assays display poor sensitivity to clinically relevant DOAC...
Spexin mRNA and protein are widely expressed in rat tissues and associate with weight loss in rodents of diet-induced obesity. Its location in endocrine and epithelial cells has also been suggested. Spexin is a novel peptide that involves weight loss in rodents of diet-induced obesity. Therefore, we aimed to examine its expression in human tissues and test whether spexin could have a role in glucose...
Heavy metals, a kind of persistent toxic substance(PTS), were taken for the study in this paper. Dust samples we recollected in Shanghai urban parks. The concentrations of mean metals in dust samples were in the order Zn >; Pb >; Cu, where Pb shows the greatest coefficient of variation. Human health risk was evaluated in Shanghai urban parks. The pathway of direct ingestion is dominating for...
In the united states, traumatic brain injury (TBI) is the most common cause of death in vehicular crash. Biomechanical analysis of brain tissue is necessary because the experiment cost too much and the modeling achieved the mechanical simulation in vehicular crash. In order to obtain the mechanical properties of human brain tissue, in last 35 years, people did compression, shear, and oscillatory loading...
Digital watermarking is considered as an efficient way to protect copyright of digital products. According to human auditory system (HAS), digital audio watermarking will be performed well by making use of auditory masking. Binary watermark information was embedded by classical quantization method in DCT domain after scrambled by Logistic map in chaos theory. Based on HAS and chaos theory, the proposed...
Heavy metals, a kind of persistent toxic substance (PTS), were taken for the study in this paper. Dust samples (44 in total) were collected in 2006 in Shanghai urban parks. The concentrations of Cu, Pb and Zn in dusts were determined by atomic absorption spectrometer. The concentrations of mean metals in dust samples were in the order Zn > Pb > Cu, where Pb shows the greatest coefficient of...
Precision calibration of industrial sensors and instruments are usually performed manually in the calibration laboratory. In this paper, a computer controlled automated solution with a software prototype controlling the whole calibration process is proposed. This solution minimizes the human involvement and therefore reduces the chances of errors. Data acquiring, processing and calculation are simplified...
