Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia.The most common diagnostic method, 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), can record episodes of arrhythmia from which the type and severity can be determined.The Heart Spectrum Blood Pressure Monitor (P2; OSTAR Meditech Corp., New Taipei City, Taiwan) is used to measure cardiovascular pressure chang
Analysis of Structural Characteristics of the HALE Joined-Wing Configuration UAV
This study focuses on a high-altitude long-endurance (HALE) joined-wing configuration UAV and completes a preliminary structural design based on aircraft design indices and the fundamental principles of aircraft structure design.Based on the preliminary structural design scheme and aerodynamic shape, a structural finite element model and a vortex l
Natural canine infection by Leishmania infantum and Leishmania amazonensis and their implications for disease control
Abstract Leishmaniasis is a major public health problem worldwide.Because Leishmania can adapt to new hosts or vectors, knowledge concerning the current etiological agent in dogs is important in endemic areas.This study aimed Nappy Pouch to identify the Leishmania species detected in 103 samples of peripheral blood from dogs that were naturally inf
Hereditary Neuropathy with Liability to Pressure Palsies Masked by Previous Gunshots and Tuberculosis
Objectives.Although hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies (HNPP) presents with a distinct phenotype on history, clinical exam, and nerve conduction studies, it may be masked if diagnostic work-up suggests other causes.Case Report.In a 37-year-old male with pseudoradicular lumbar pain, neurological exam revealed sore neck muscles,
Research on Two-Phase Flow and Wear of Inlet Pipe Induced by Fluid Prewhirl in a Centrifugal Pump
In deep-sea mining hydraulic lifting systems, centrifugal pumps are very important as power units.In the process of transportation, the fluid prewhirl phenomenon in the impeller inlet will lead to changes in the state of motion of the particles and fluid and cause the wear of the inlet pipe, which can lead to centrifugal pump failure in serious cas
