Effect of low-dose methyl prednisolone on serum cytokine levels following extracorporeal circulation
(Arnold Hodder Headline Plc., 1999)The systemic inflammatory response to cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is associated with increased production of cytokines. This systemic inflammatory response characterized by the activation of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and ... -
Acute gastrointestinal complications after open heart surgery
(Asia Publishing Exchange Pte Ltd, 2000)Retrospective analysis revealed that 24 of 4401 adult patients (0.5%) developed severe gastrointestinal complications after open heart surgery during a 3-year period from January 1995. There were 4 women (17%) and 20 men ... -
A synthesis tool for the multiplierless realization of FIR-based multirate DSP systems
(IEEE, 2000)In this study a synthesis tool using a novel multirate folding technique which handles each FIR filter in a multirate DSP system as a single node is developed. A new architecture is presented for the multiplierless realization ... -
VLSI implementation of GRBF (Gaussian Radial Basis Function) networks
(IEEE, 2000)A GRBF network is designed for VLSI implementation. Building blocks of the network consist mainly of analog circuits: op-amp multiplier multiplying DAC (digital to analog converter) floating resistor summer and exponentiator. ... -
Going against the national cultural grain: a longitudinal case study of organizational culture change in Turkish higher education
(Carfax Publishing, 2000)This paper presents results of a longitudinal case study inquiry into the measurement of organizational culture change through the implementation of total quality management (TQM) concepts in a higher education context. ... -
The use of the 5-HT3-receptor antagonist ondansetron for the treatment of postcardiotomy delirium
(W.B. Saunders Co Ltd, 2000)Objective:To evaluate the effect of the 5-HT3-receptor antagonist ondansetron in patients with postcardiotomy delirium. Design: Prospective study. Setting: University hospital. Participants: Thirty-five patients who had ... -
Use of octopus 2 stabilization system for off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting
(Medimond Srl, 2000)The early results of 126 off pump CABG procedures performed through a median sternotomy incision (OPCAB) during a period of 18 months were evaluated. The mean age was 69+/-4.3 years. There were 80 male and 46 female patients. ... -
Primary epiploic appendagitis CT manifestations
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2000)Inflammation of an epiploic appendage is considered to be a rare cause of acute abdomen. Recently it has been reported that typical computed tomography (CT) findings of primary epiploic appendagitis (PEA) provide a definitive ... -
Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting with use of the octopus 2 stabilization system
(2000)Background: The treatment of coronary artery disease has evolved rapidly over the last two decades. The gold standard of surgical revascularization, the on-pump coronary artery bypass graft, has been challenged by the ... -

(2000)BACKGROUND: The treatment of coronary artery disease has evolved rapidly over the last two decades. The gold standard of surgical revascularization, the on-pump coronary artery bypass graft, has been challenged by the ... -
Parameter quantization effects in Gaussian potential function neural networks
(World Scientific and Engineering Academy and Society, 2001)In hardware implementations of Gaussian Potential Function Neural Networks (GPFNN) deviation from ideal network parameters is inevitable because of the techniques used for parameter storage and implementation of the functions ... -
Screening of a stentless valve with electron beamed tomograpy 5 years after operation

A left pulmonary artery aneurysm secondary to pulmonary hypertension
(2001)We report a case of pulmonary trunk aneurysm extending into the left pulmonary artery due to pulmonary hypertension secondary to mitral valve disease. The mitral valve was replaced with a bileaflet mechanical prosthesis. ... -
Fault-tolerant training of neural networks in the presence of MOS transistor mismatches
(IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2001)Analog techniques are desirable for hardware implementation of neural networks due to their numerous advantages such as small size low power and high speed. However these advantages are often offset by the difficulty in ... -
Electrical activity regulates AChR gene expression via JNK PKC zeta and Sp1 in skeletal chick muscle
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2001)Electrical activity of myotubes represses nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (AChR) gene expression. This effect is mimicked by okadaic acid and blocked by tetrodotoxin (TTX) or staurosporine in cultured myocytes [Altiok et ... -
Interactions of polyacrylamide polymer with bentonite in aqueous systems
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2001)The flow properties of natural Ca bentonite and Na bentonite-water systems were studied after adding an anionic polyacrylamide (PAM) polymer. The effect of the PAM has also been investigated at different quantities. The ... -
Anterior instrumentation for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
(Springer Verlag, 2001)Thirty-two patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis underwent anterior fusion with rigid single rod (third generation instrumentation) and titanium mesh cages. The mean follow-up was 31 (24-45) months and the mean age ... -
The evaluation of microbial contamination in platelet concentrates prepared by two different methods
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2001)The microbial contamination of platelet concentrates (PCs) prepared by two different methods both with a high risk of bacterial contamination during preparation and storage were evaluated. For apheresis platelets the ... -
