CARDIAC-SURGERY ASSOCIATED ACUTE KIDNEY INJURY REQUIRING RENAL REPLACEMENT THERAPY. A SPANISH RETROSPECTIVE CASE-COHORT STUDY

Cardiac-surgery associated acute kidney injury requiring renal replacement therapy. A Spanish retrospective case-cohort study

Abstract Background Acute kidney injury is among the most serious complications after cardiac surgery and is associated with an impaired outcome.Multiple factors may concur in the development of this disease.Moreover, severe renal failure requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT) presents a high mortality rate.Consequently, we studied a Spanish coh

Development of Equipment and Application of Machine Learning Techniques Using Frequency Response Data for Cap Damage Detection of Porcelain Insulators

The most common method for inspection of insulators is to measure the change of electrical characteristics such as electric resistance and partial discharge.However, even if there is no physical damage, these values vary depending Body Oils on the temperature, humidity, and chloride content of the atmosphere.In this respect, an alternative to such

The Roles of Signaling in Cytoskeletal Changes, Random Movement, Direction-Sensing and Polarization of Eukaryotic Cells

Movement of cells and tissues is essential at various stages during the lifetime of an organism, including morphogenesis in early development, in the immune response to pathogens, and during wound-healing and tissue regeneration.Individual cells are able to move in a variety of microenvironments VANILLA (MEs) (A glossary of the acronyms used herein

Normal fault growth in layered rocks with contrasting lithologies: a case study from the upper tip of the Argence Fault (Charente, France)

Increasing displacement along an isolated fault is generally associated with fault propagation within the host rock.This propagation is controlled by several factors, including host-rock lithology, tectonic context and the presence of preexisting structures.Consequently, fault propagation is rarely linear and continuous, instead often alternating b
