2. A Nodal-iterative Technique for Criticality Calculations in Multigroup Neutron Diffusion Models
ABSTRACT In this work, a nodal and iterative technique to evaluate the effective multiplication factor as well as the neutron flux, in multigroup diffusion problems, is presented. An iterative scheme, similar to the source iteration method, is implemented to decouple the system of differential equations which is the fundamental mathematical model. Then, anal

3. Minimal Invasive Thoracoscopic Mitral Valve Surgery
ABSTRACT Introduction: The totally thoracoscopic approach for mitral valve (MV) disease is a minimally invasive method. We investigated the procedure’s feasibility, safety and effectiveness when it was performed by an experienced operator. Methods: We retrospectively analysed 96 consecutive patients with MV disease treated between March 2016 and November

4. Efficacy of opioids and non-opioid analgesics in the treatment of post procedure pain of burned patients: a narrative review
Abstract Introduction Burns are a common trauma that cause acute severe pain in up to 80% of patients. The objective of this narrative review is to evaluate the efficacy of opioids, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, paracetamol, gabapentinoids, ketamine, and lidocaine in the treatment of acute pain in burn victims. Methodology The databases explored w

5. Intermediate-term follow-up of laparoscopic pectopexy cases and their effects on sexual function and quality of life: a cross-sectional study
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Apical prolapsus refers to downward displacement of the vaginal apex, uterus or cervix. Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) can significantly affect women’s daily activities and sexuality. OBJECTIVE: To investigate, at the mid-term follow-up after laparoscopic pectopexy surgery, whether this procedure improved the patients’ quality of life

7. Radially Periodic Metasurface Lenses for Magnetic Field Collimation in Resonant Wireless Power Transfer Applications
Abstract In this paper, a new procedure and topology of magnetic metasurface lens are proposed for improving the performance of Resonant Wireless Power Transfer systems. Firstly, three subwave-length unit cells are optimized in order to get negative magnetic permeability in the same frequency, each one with a different refractive index, and they are experime

8. Is Jedi Grip efficient and effective in ultrasound-guided peripheral nerve blocking? A prospective, randomized, observer-blinded study
Abstract Background In this prospective, randomized, controlled observer-blinded study, we aimed to compare the efficacy of a single-operator technique called the Jedi Grip and a conventional technique requiring a double operator in ultrasound-guided axillary brachial plexus blocking. Methods Ninety-two patients (ASA I-II; aged 18-65 years old) who underwe
