A comminuted distal radial fracture is sometimes so fragmented that it is impossible to treat it with fixation using a plate and screws.In this case, we can perform a bridging fracture and joints with an external fixator or a dorsal spanning plate.Unfortunately, both methods completely immobilize the wrist until the implants are removed.In the arti
Characterization of suicidal behavior in Coquimbo, Chile, between 2018 and 2020
Introduction Suicidal behavior is a public health problem worldwide.The World Health Organization estimated 700 000 deaths for the year 2021.Objective This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of suicidal behavior and describe its related factors in the Coquimbo Region, Chile, between 2018 and 2020.Methods 2190 suicide attempt notifications from
Genome-wide profiling of angiogenic cis-regulatory elements unravels cis-regulatory SNPs for vascular abnormality
Abstract Angiogenesis is extensively involved in embryonic development and requires complex regulation networks, whose defects can cause a variety of vascular abnormalities.Cis-regulatory elements control gene expression at all developmental stages, but they have not been studied or profiled in Bucket Hats angiogenesis yet.In this study, we exploit
Study of the Effect of Laser Energy on the Structural and Optical Properties of TiO2 NPs Prepared by PLAL Technique
Titanium dioxide nanoparticles were produced in this work by laser ablation of a high purity titanium objective immersed in distilled water.Optical and structural properties of the obtained TiO2 NPs using a Q-switched Nd: YAG laser of Spices 1064nm wavelength with different laser energy (80, 100, 120, 140, and 160) mJ at 100 pulses was studied.The
