Existing monitoring and control of an induction motor systems must be interoperable with next generation products to ensure smart integration in order to update existing system by reducing the cost and increasing the reliability. The best method must be chosen for efficient use of energy in some cases such as speed control, switching-on or switching-off, or in controlling the speed of induction motors, which make up a large part of the load group in industrial field. In this study, the controlling and monitoring of an induction motor parameters were carried out over a computer by using the Profibus (Process Field Bus) communication method through the TIA (Totally Integrated Automation) Portal program used to program all Siemens PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers). The induction motor parameters were obtained over the frequency converter without using additional cards such as current, voltage, frequency and speed measurement. In this way, cables and electronic cards confusion were avoided and a safer, faster and more functional application was implemented compared to classical methods. KEPServerEx OPC (Ole-for Processing Control) Server program by OPC Foundation was preferred for the communication of computer with a PLC. Profi-Lab editor program was used for monitoring and controlling the system over a computer.

We aimed to investigate potential predictors of focal intestinal perforation (FIP) in extremely low birth weight infants (ELBWIs) among coagulation and fibrinolysis markers at birth.

We reviewed the medical records of FIP patients and their coagulation and fibrinolysis markers at birth between 2010 and 2019, and matched patients according to gestational age. FIP was diagnosed based on macroscopic intestinal perforation with a punched-out lesion without necrosis. Patient characteristics and blood test results, including coagulation and fibrinolysis marker levels, were compared between the groups.

Two hundred forty ELBWIs were enrolled in this study (FIP, n=18; controls, n=222). In the FIP group, the gestational age at birth was significantly younger (p=0.023) and the birth weight was significantly lower (p=0.007) in comparison to the control group. Furthermore, the FIP group showed significantly lower levels of fibrinogen (p=0.027) and factor XIII (F-XIII) (p=0.007). The receiver operating characteristics curves for fibrinogen and F-XIII revealed that the 95% confidence intervals of fibrinogen and F-XIII were 0.530-0.783 (p=0.027), and 0.574-0.822 (p=0.007), respectively.

This is the first report focusing on coagulation and fibrinolysis markers in FIP patients at birth. The fibrinogen and F-XIII values at birth are potential predictors of FIP in ELBWIs.

Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) has a high rate of readmission, and racial disparities in care could be an important contributor.

Patients undergoing PD were prospectively followed, and their complications graded using the Modified Accordion Grading System (MAGS). Patient factors and perioperative outcomes for patients with and without postoperative readmission were compared in univariate and multivariate analysis by severity.

837 patients underwent PD, the overall 90-day readmission rate was 27.5%. Non-white race was independently associated with readmission (OR 1.83, p=0.007). 51.3% of readmissions were for non-severe complications (MAGS <3). Non-white race was independently associated with MAGS non-severe readmission (OR 2.13, p=0.006), but not MAGS severe readmission.

Non-white patients are more likely to be readmitted, particularly for non-severe complications. Follow up protocols should be tailored to address race disparities in the rates of readmission as readmission for less severe complications could potentially be avoidable.

Our study investigates how general surgery residency programs utilized social media to adapt to the challenges of COVID-19.

319 participating general surgery residency programs provided by the Electronic Residency Application Service were analyzed in this study. Associated Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook accounts were assessed to find virtual open houses and externships.

Of the 319 program, 188 (59%) were found to have a social media presence. A total of 348 social media accounts were found, as some of the programs had separate residency and department accounts. Of all the social media accounts, 112 (32%) of the accounts were created after March 1, 2020. Lanifibranor nmr Virtual open houses opportunities were found to be advertised across all platforms.

Many general surgery programs responded to the physical limitations of COVID-19 pandemic by increasingly utilizing social media during the COVID-19 pandemic. Virtual opportunities should be considered as a novel approach for future outreach and recruitment.

The PTCL are very rare diseases that account for only 10,000 to 15,000 new cases per year in the United States. The World Health Organization's 2016 classification describes 29 distinct subtypes of PTCL, thus making these both rate and incredibly heterogenous. The 2 most common forms of PTCL, for example, peripheral T-cell lymphoma-not otherwise specified and angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma , have an incidence of only 2500 and 1800 cases per year respectively, in the United States.
