In a survey of the incidence, severity, and significance of medical student abuse as perceived by the student population of a major medical school in Nigeria, 171 (74%) out of a total 231 respondents stated that they had been abused at some time while enrolled in medical school.The abuses ranged from verbal, physical, psychological to Hat sexual.Fi
Bipolar disorder and delayed sleep-wake phase disorder: Findings on sustained attention, sleep, and circadian rhythm parameters
Background: Sleep and circadian rhythm disruptions can contribute to cognitive disturbances in bipolar disorder (BD); however, the profile of specific sleep/circadian phenotypes remains to be elucidated.The aim of our Test Kits work is to compare sleep/circadian parameters and sustained attention between patients with BD and comorbid delayed sleep-
Roles and Mechanisms of Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4 Inhibitors in Vascular Aging
Vascular aging is characterized by alterations in the constitutive properties and biological functions of the blood vessel wall.Endothelial cells (ECs) and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are indispensability elements in the inner layer and the medial layer of the Elbow Support blood vessel wall, respectively.Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) inhi
The Method of Reversible Circuits Design with One-gate Prediction
This paper presents an original method of designing reversible circuits.This method is destined to most popular gate set with three types of gates CNT (Control, NOT and Toffoli).The presented algorithm based on graphical representation of the reversible function is called s-maps.This algorithm allows to find optimal or quasi-optimal reversible circ
Endoscopic Resection of Skull Base Teratoma in Klippel-Feil Syndrome through Use of Combined Ultrasonic and Bipolar Diathermy Platforms
Klippel-Feil syndrome (KFS) is associated with numerous craniofacial abnormalities but rarely with skull base tumor formation.We report an unusual and dramatic case of a symptomatic, mature skull base teratoma in an adult patient with KFS, with extension through the basisphenoid to obstruct the nasopharynx.This benign lesion was associated with mid
