Biomedical Science and Research Journals | Social Mechanism of Self-Development of Physical Culture

Image
Social Mechanism of Self-Development of Physical Culture Commentry Since man is simultaneously the subject and the object of the process of historical development of society, one can conclude that in society all the diversity of human needs is realized in the form of individual or group activity of people. Such activity creates in society a special relationship between people, which under certain conditions is the basis of the mechanism of their self-organization and leads to the appearance in society of various social phenomena that can be transformed into corresponding social institutions. This process can be described as follows. In an effort to satisfy a particular need, a person enters into relationships with other people who have similar aspirations. Such interaction can lead to the unification of these people in order to jointly obtain the necessary goods and values to meet common needs. It contributes to the formation of social groups, which are characterized b...

Biomedical Science and Research Journals | The Economic Burden of Bleeds and Transfusions in Selected Surgeries: A Retrospective Multi Center Analysis from the US Perspective

The Economic Burden of Bleeds and Transfusions in Selected Surgeries: A Retrospective Multi Center Analysis from the US Perspective Abstract Objective: To identify the economic impact of bleeds and transfusions by analyzing the effect of hemostatic agents (active and passive) on adults undergoing Cardio Vascular/Thoracic & Ortho-Ortho Spine surgeries in US hospitals. Methods: A Retrospective review of intraoperative data from 72 Cardio Vascular/Thoracic, and 39 Ortho-Ortho Spine surgeries performed between August–December 2018, from different US Urban Hospitals was performed to determine the economic impact of bleeding and transfusions associated with the utilization efficiency of active or passive hemostatic agents. Results: Of the 111 cases analyzed, 157 hemostatic agents were used. Utilization efficiency (a percentage defined as the amount of product used divided by the amount opened) was calculated. Utilization efficiency or products such as ...

Biomedical Science and Research Journals | Collateral Discoveries Done During Research About Time & Space

Collateral Discoveries Done During Research About Time & Space Abstract Besides the development of the theory of time and space, some unprecedented findings of a great interest have been gathered. Keywords: Time, Space, Phenomenon, Interdisciplinarity, Concept Introduction The advances of theoretical research about time and space are mainly due to a large use of interdisciplinarity; for example, the study of geohistorical origins and the criticism of the everyday language. Beyond the major discoveries, the documentary corpus revealed information unexpected for some of them, or more or less unprecedented, or at least not clearly explained. The Major Discoveries We owe the first trace of time to Sumerians, between 4800 and 4500 years ago: a cuneiform sign, engraved on a clay tablet, which means lunar month [1]. This important discovery has some major consequences: a. Time is not a physical phenomenon. It’s also established that s...

Biomedical Science and Research Journals | Epidemiological Characteristics and Management of Brain Metastases on Patients in the Clinical Hospital of the University of Chile (Hcuch) between 2012 and 2017

Epidemiological Characteristics and Management of Brain Metastases on Patients in the Clinical Hospital of the University of Chile (Hcuch) between 2012 and 2017 Abstract Introduction and Context: Brain metastases (BM) are the main neurological complication of cancer, affecting up to 30% of these patients (incidence = 8.3-14.3 x 100,000), and they are the most frequent intracranial tumors (IT) of the adult. They are 10 times more common than primary cerebral neoplasms (PCN), however, the number of publications about this pathology is only 25% of PCNs such as gliomas. In our country there is no national registry of brain tumors, so the actual incidence of these is unknown. Treatments include initial/palliative management with glucocorticoids (GC) and/or surgery (Cx), radiosurgery (RS) or Whole Brain Radiation Therapy (WBRT). The purpose of this study is to determine clinical and therapeutic characteristics of BM in patients taken care of in our institution ...

Biomedical Science and Research Journals | Sphenopalatine Block for Treatment of Migraine Headache

Image
Sphenopalatine Block for Treatment of Migraine Headache Migraine is a common headache and a leading cause of disability worldwide [ 1 ]. Chronic migraine (CM) burdens patients due to the headache and debilitating associated symptoms and through disability high economic costs. CM patients meet diagnostic criteria and have a minimum of headaches and symptoms 8 days a month or headaches on 15 days a month. A complete, detailed history and an in-depth physical examination with the emphasis on neurologic aspects is required in order to differentiate CM from other causes of headache. If indicated, other diagnostic tests may be required [ 2 ]. A multifaceted approach is used to eliminate risk factors and headache triggers. Prophylaxis and abortive approaches can be applied. Use of pharmacologic agents for the acute/chronic treatment of migraine may be limited by adverse side effects, variability if effect and efficacy, or contraindications, allergies or untoward drug -drug interactio...

Biomedical Science and Research Journals | Model Fibrillation as an Analogue of the Hyperbolic the Smale-Williams Attractor

 Model Fibrillation as an Analogue of the Hyperbolic the Smale-Williams Attractor bstract Currently, active media form a very promising area of research, because they include a variety of physical, chemical, biological, etc. objects: electronic solid-state systems, a number of chemical solutions and gels (including the Belousov reaction), nerve and muscle tissue, microbial colonies, ecological systems, etc. Representation of active media through ensembles linked excitable or self-oscillating elements is quite useful method of analysis, because the active media allows you to deeply understand the basic dynamic processes occurring in such environments. As is known, this approach goes back to the Wiener and rosenbluth Model [ 1 ], according to which the excitable medium consists of a set of interacting elements in one of three possible States: excitation, refractoriness or rest. Later, models such as limit-cycle oscillators and chaotic maps [ 2 - 3 ] also began to ...
