Abstract:

Abstract Objectives: To retrospectively compare and contrast the clinical presentation, diagnostic findings and survival in Boxer dogs with cardiomyopathy, with or without left ventricular (LV) systolic failure. Animals, materials and methods: Medical records of Boxers referred between 1993 and 2008 in which a diagnosis of ventricular arrhythmias and/or cardiomyopathy was made, were reviewed. Dogs were divided into two groups according to their left ventricular (LV) systolic diameter, groupAnormal (20 dogs) or group Bdilated (59 dogs). Results: Dogs in group A had a better outcome than

Abstract:

Events in utero have been linked with diseases throughout life, however there is a lack of consensus regarding the ability of neonatal tests to predict these outcomes. Systematic reviews and meta-analyses were performed, assessing umbilical cord pH and base excess at birth, standards of low birth weight, and the Apgar score, including a total of 218 papers and 26704980 individuals. The prognostic association and predictive accuracy of these tests for adverse outcomes, including neonatal mortality and morbidity, childhood morbidity including cerebral palsy, and adult outcomes, were determined.

Exames de TCFC cobrindo toda a região maxilofacial permitem a detecção de lesões e anomalias fora da área específica de interesse. A avaliação minuciosa do exame nos permite a constatação de achados incidentais com ou sem significado clínico. São considerados como achados incidentais, imagens descobertas não relacionadas com o propósito original do exame e incluem variações anatômicas, anomalias, lesões

Abstract:

This thesis addresses the three principal questions concerning the development of CT urography for investigating haematuria and each question is the subject of a separate chapter. The questions are: What is the reasoning behind using CT urography? What is the optimum diagnostic strategy using CT urography? What are the problems with using CT urography and how may solutions be provided? Haematuria can signify serious disease such as urinary tract stones, renal cell cancer, upper tract urothelial cancer (UTUC) and bladder cancer (BCa). CT urography is defined as contrast enhanced CT examination

Abstract:

In Scania vehicles, Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) are collected while driving, later on loaded into a central database when visiting a workshop. These DTCs are statistically used to analyse vehicles’ health statuses, which is why correctness in data is desirable. In workshops DTCs can however occur due to work and tests. Nevertheless are they loaded into the database without any notification. In order to perform an accurate analysis of the vehicle health status it would be desirable if such DTCs could be found and removed. The thesis has examined if this is possible by searching for patterns

This thesis explores learning in clinical practice in the cases of CT, MRI and PACS in UK hospitals. It asks the questions of how and why certain evolutionary features of technology condition learning and change in medical contexts. Using an evolutionary perspective of cognitive and social aspects of technological change, this thesis explores the relationships between technology and organisational learning processes of intuition, interpretation, integration and institutionalisation. Technological regimes are manifested in routines, skills and artefacts, and dynamically evolve with knowledge ac

Abstract:

Specific characteristics of single heritage constructions pose a challenge at the moment of the formulation of a judgement on the preservation state and safety of the object. In Italy, the guidelines on assessment and reduction of seismic risk to heritage constructions have provided a procedure for gaining an adequate level of knowledge of masonry constructions. Such operative methodology is presented as a path made of many aspects that, at different levels and from many viewpoints, should bring together a detailed qualitative and quantitative knowledge of the artifact under analysis.

Abstract:

Although most people have experienced word-finding difficulty at one time or another, there are no clinical instruments able to reliably distinguish normal age-related effects from pathology in word-finding impairment. Two experiments were conducted to establish a modified version of the Boston Naming Test (BNT) that includes latency times, the Boston Naming Test of Latencies (BNT-L), in order to improve the instrument's sensitivity to mild to moderate word-finding impairment.
