Abstract Background: Early administration of antibiotics in sepsis is associated with improved patient outcomes, but safe and generalizable approaches to de-escalate or discontinue antibiotics after suspected sepsis events are unknown.Methods: We Test Boards used a modified Delphi approach to identify safety criteria for an opt-out protocol to guid
In this paper, we present a hybrid genetic-hierarchical algorithm for the solution of the quadratic assignment problem.The main distinguishing aspect of the proposed Art prints algorithm is that this is an innovative hybrid genetic algorithm with the original, hierarchical architecture.In particular, the genetic algorithm is combined with the so-ca
Cleft lip and palate (CL/P) is a frequent congenital malformation that manifests in several varieties including unilateral or bilateral and complete or incomplete.Alveolar cleft reconstruction remains controversial with GLOSSY LIPSTICK NUDE RAIN #504 regard to timing, graft materials, surgical techniques, and methods of evaluation.Many studies have
Background: Melanocortinergic system represents a known system involved in the central regulation of body weight with the central proopiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons forming a potent anorexigenic network.Polymorphisms in the POMC gene locus are associated with obesity phenotypes.Aim: To assess the contribution of the POMC gene 9-bp insertional polym
