05) in micronuclei and binucleated cells in the erythrocytes of exposed fishes compared to control. Embryotoxic effects assessed from 0 to 72 h post fertilization showed significant decreases (p less then 0.05) in hatching success and number of heartbeats per minute, and significant increase (p less then 0.05) in percentage abnormalities in the…[Read more]

Learning through work is a common feature of preparing health professionals for practice. Current understandings of work-integrated learning or a ‘work-based placement’, focus on students being consumers of experiences rather than providing a reciprocal benefit to the organisation in which they are placed. More nuanced understanding of the ways…[Read more]

022). The thickness of corneal epithelium in the forme fruste keratoconus at 90° was thinner than that in the low astigmatism group at -1, and -2 mm points (

=0.015,

=0.036).

The analysis of the thinnest point in forme fruste keratoconus corneal epithelium appears earlier than corneal epithelial remodeling. The…[Read more]

We computed the correlation between these two CCIs and model-based estimates of sagittal plane joint stiffness for the hip, knee, and ankle of both legs. Although we observed moderate to strong correlations between some CCI formulations and corresponding joint stiffness, these associations were highly dependent on the methodological choices made…[Read more]

These CBFv deviations occurred equally during periods of preserved and impaired autoregulation, while concurrent variations in MAP and PetCO2 explained only 13-21% of these CBFv deviations. Conclusion CBFv deviations beyond ischemic and hyperemic thresholds are common in critically ill patients with respiratory failure or shock. These deviations…[Read more]
