PERCUTANEOUS ENDOSCOPIC GASTROSTOMY IN CHILDREN

Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy in children

PurposePercutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) can improve nutritional status and reduce the amount of time needed to feed neurologically impaired children.We evaluated the characteristics, complications, and outcomes of neurologically impaired children treated with PEG.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed the records of 32 neurologically impaired

Active and Reactive Power Joint Balancing for Analyzing Short-Term Voltage Instability Caused by Induction Motor

Short-term voltage instability has a sensational effect once it occurs with massive loss of load, possibly area instability, and voltage collapse.This paper analyzes the short-term voltage instability caused by induction motor from the viewpoint of active and reactive power joint balancing.The analysis method is based on (1) the reactive power bala

Can Daphnia lumholtzi invade European lakes?

The cladoceran Daphnia lumholtzi is a subtropical and tropical zooplankter, and an invasive species in North America.Thus far, D.lumholtzi has not been detected in Europe.Here we investigated whether a hypothetical introduction to Europe could result in a successful USB CD Player invasion, either now or in the near future when facilitated by climat

Telomere dysfunction cooperates with epigenetic alterations to impair murine embryonic stem cell fate commitment

The precise relationship between epigenetic alterations and telomere dysfunction is still an extant question.Previously, we showed that eroded telomeres lead to differentiation instability in Countertop Ranges murine embryonic stem cells (mESCs) via DNA hypomethylation at pluripotency-factor promoters.Here, we uncovered that telomerase reverse tran
