Background: Current evidence-based cervical cancer testing guidelines recommend that screening of low-risk women ceases after age 65.Despite this, research suggests that continued testing by primary care providers remains common and represents unnecessary patient discomfort, cost, and consumption of valuable primary care resources.Objective: To und
Thermoelectric coolers (TEC) can enhance the cooling performance of the radiator but are greatly affected by parameters such as heat dissipation intensity, working current, and working heat-load.In this study, the finite element analysis model of TEC enhanced air-cooling module is established, and the system theory and experimental research on ENDU
Cobalt is a trace element, crucial for red blood cell formation and neurological function.Cobalt toxicity is often only diagnosed after severe manifestations, including visual impairment.We aimed to investigate whether optical coherence tomography (OCT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can effectively detect cobalt-induced ocular toxicity in a
OBJECTIVE: To assess adherence to community-based directly observed treatment (DOT) among Tanzanian tuberculosis patients using the Medication Event Monitoring System (MEMS) and to validate alternative adherence measures for resource-limited settings using MEMS as a gold standard.METHODS: This was a longitudinal pilot study of 50 patients recruited
