Community health workers (CHWs) have long played a key role in delivering healthcare in rural and remote populations, through primary care, prevention, and education.Numerous mechanisms of training and supporting CHWs have been implemented, and the World Health Organization (WHO) has outlined recommendations for the programmatic and financial aspec
Application of Cone Beam Computed Tomography in Risk Assessment of Lower Third Molar Surgery
Risks of lower third molar surgery like the inferior alveolar nerve injury may result in permanent consequences.Risk assessment is important prior to the surgery and forms part of the informed consent process.Traditionally, plain radiographs like orthopantomogram have been used routinely for this purpose.Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) has off
Two modes of fusogenic action for influenza virus fusion peptide.
The entry of influenza virus into the host cell requires fusion of its lipid envelope with the host membrane.It is catalysed by viral hemagglutinin protein, whose fragments called fusion peptides become inserted into the target bilayer and initiate its merging with the viral membrane.Isolated fusion peptides are already simply southern cat shirt ca
Controlling a Switched Reluctance Motor with a Conventional Three-Phase Bridge Instead of Asymmetric H-Bridges
This paper proposes a new driving method for switched reluctance motors (SRMs) using the standard full-bridge inverter.In spite of changing the internal structure of an SRM, the proposed method uses an extra ring structure circuit to make it possible for the inverter to drive the SRM.Next to the standard converter, a controllable DC source is neede
Experimental Study on Effectiveness of a Prototype Seismic Isolation System Made of Polymeric Bearings
Seismic isolation is identified as one of the most popular and effective methods of protecting structures under strong dynamic excitations.Base isolators, such as Lead Rubber Bearings, High Damping Rubber Bearings, and Friction Pendulum Bearings, are widely used in practice in many earthquake-prone regions of the world to mitigate wella color touch
