Goal-directed fluid therapy on the postoperative complications of laparoscopic hepatobiliary or pancreatic surgery: An interventional comparative study

Plos.org 
En

by Bon-Wook Koo, Ah-Young Oh, Hyo-Seok Na, Jiwon Han, Hyeong geun Kim

Background

Intraoperative fluid balance significantly affects patients’ outcomes. Goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT) has reduced the incidence of major postoperative complications by 20% for 30 days after open abdominal surgery. Little is known about GDFT during laparoscopic surgery.

Aim

We investigated whether GDFT affects the postoperative outcomes in laparoscopic hepatobiliary or pancreatic surgery compared with conventional fluid management. Читать дальше...

A qualitative study on the perspectives of prenatal breastfeeding educational classes in Ireland: Implications for maternal breastfeeding decisions

Plos.org 
En

by Jennifer Kehinde, Claire O’Donnell, Annmarie Grealish

Background

Breastfeeding, acknowledged for its critical health benefits for both infants and mothers, remains markedly underutilized in Ireland, which reports the lowest breastfeeding rates in Europe. Recent data indicate that fewer than 60% of Irish mothers initiate breastfeeding at birth, with this rate precipitously declining in the subsequent weeks postpartum. Various sociocultural, psychological, and educational elements, such as prenatal breastfeeding education... Читать дальше...

En

by Yong Seok Jo, Jeon Mi Lee

Objectives

The relationship between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and hearing loss (HL) remains uncertain. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between OSA and HL, and to identify which factors play a key role.

Methods

A retrospective review was conducted of 90 subjects diagnosed with OSA. These subjects underwent overnight polysomnography (PSG) and pure-tone audiometry at a single institution from February 2014 to November 2023. Hearing evaluations... Читать дальше...

Road side unit deployment optimization for the reliability of internet of vehicles based on information transmission model

En

by Jun Zhang, Guangtong Hu

The Internet of Vehicles (IoV) makes it possible to transmit information in real time between vehicles, providing a modern approach for autonomous driving, traffic safety, and other applications. Roadside units (RSUs) contribute to the enhancement of IoV’s reliability and transmission efficiency, while mitigating the impact of low IoV penetration. The objective of RSU deployment optimization is to minimize the total cost with the premise of ensuring IoV reliability. Читать дальше...

Investigation of electromagnetic wave propagation characteristics across various frequencies in porous media of goaf

En

by Qingsong Zhang, Weikang Zhao, Hui Zhuo, Long Lin, Zuojian Li

The reliable long-distance transmission of electromagnetic wave signals within goaf is fundamental for the implementation of wireless monitoring and early warning systems for goaf-related disasters. This paper establishes an experimental platform for electromagnetic wave signal transmission within goaf and develops a propagation model for electromagnetic waves in the porous media of goaf. The transmission characteristics of electromagnetic... Читать дальше...

GO-CRISPR: A highly controlled workflow to discover gene essentiality in loss-of-function screens

En

by Pirunthan Perampalam, James I. McDonald, Frederick A. Dick

Genome-wide CRISPR screens are an effective discovery tool for genes that underlie diverse cellular mechanisms that can be scored through cell fitness. Loss-of-function screens are particularly challenging compared to gain-of-function because of the limited dynamic range of decreased sgRNA sequence detection. Here we describe Guide-Only control CRISPR (GO-CRISPR), an improved loss-of-function screening workflow, and its companion software package... Читать дальше...
