Development and internal validation of a simple clinical score for the estimation of the probability of deep vein thrombosis in outpatient emergency department patients.

Background: Wells score comprises subjective elements, making physicians reluctant to use Wells score or cause them to use it incorrectly.

Objectives: To develop and internally validate a prediction score that is objective and simple for evaluating suspected deep vein thrombosis (DVT), with a safety comparable with that of Wells score.

Methods: We performed a post hoc analysis using data from the Ri-Schedule study (NCT02486445) involving suspected DVT patients at Østfold Hospital's Emergency Department, Norway (2015-2018).

Hydrogen Evolution Reaction of Electrodeposited Ni-W Films in Acidic Medium and Performance Optimization Using Machine Learning.

Ni-W alloy films were electrodeposited from a gluconate aqueous bath at pH=5.0, at varying current densities and temperatures. While there is little to no difference in composition, i.

Nano-TiO/TiN Systems for Electrocatalysis: Mapping the Changes in Energy Band Diagram across the Semiconductor|Current Collector Interface and the Study of Effects of TiO Electrochemical Reduction Using UV Photoelectron Spectroscopy.

TiO is the most widely used material in photoelectrocatalytic systems. A key parameter to understand its efficacy in such systems is the band bending in the semiconductor layer. In this regard, knowledge on the band energetics at the semiconductor/current collector interface, especially for a nanosemiconductor electrode, is extremely vital as it will directly impact any charge transfer processes at its interface with the electrolyte.

Motor effects of fentanyl in isoflurane-anaesthetized pigs and the subsequent effect of ketanserin or naloxone.

Objective: To examine the effect of ketanserin and naloxone on fentanyl-induced motor activity in isoflurane-anaesthetized pigs.

Study Design: Randomized, blinded, prospective two-group study.

Animals: A group of 12 crossbred pigs weighing 22-31 kg.

Effects of dietary fish to rapeseed oil ratio on steatosis symptoms in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L) of different sizes.

Choline is recognized as an essential nutrient for Atlantic salmon at all developmental stages. However, its dietary requirement is not well defined. Choline plays a critical role in lipid transport, and the clearest deficiency sign is intestinal steatosis.
