Internal Jugular Vein Avulsion Controlled With Intraoperative Foley Balloon Occlusion Following Blunt Neck Trauma.

Internal jugular vein injuries caused by blunt trauma are rare. Here, we describe the case of a severe internal jugular vein injury high in neck zone II and immediately lateral to the hypoglossal nerve, making surgical management extremely challenging. A Foley balloon inserted into the cranial end of the internal jugular vein allowed for effective hemorrhage control while the vein could be suture ligated.

Peroxisome inter-organelle cooperation in .

Many cellular functions are compartmentalized within the optimized environments of organelles. However, processing or storage of metabolites from the same pathway can occur in multiple organelles. Thus, spatially separated organelles need to cooperate functionally.

Hard X-ray inverse Compton scattering at photon energy of 87.5 keV.

Production of hard X-ray via inverse Compton scattering at photon energies below 100 keV range aimed at potential applications in medicine and material research is reported. Experiments have been performed at the Brookhaven National Laboratory, Accelerator Test Facility, employing the counter collision of a 70 MeV, 0.3 nC electron beam with a near infra-red Nd: YAG laser (1064 nm wavelength) pulse containing ~ 100 mJ in a single shot basis.

The Impact of Religious Beliefs on Early Lactation in Israeli Mothers.
