In this article, the spatial symmetric nonlinear dispersive wave model in (2+1)-dimensions is studied, which have many applications in wave phenomena and soliton interactions in a two-dimensional space with time. In this framework, the Hirota bilinear form is applied to acquire diverse types of breather wave solutions from the foresaid equation. Abundant breather wave solutions are presented by the Hirota bilinear form and a mixture of exponentials and trigonometric functions with the usage of symbolic computation.

Article Synopsis
  • A clinical study was conducted to assess different pain management strategies after cesarean sections (CS) using 300 participants divided into five groups based on their anesthesia methods and analgesic protocols.
  • Results indicated that the group receiving intrathecal morphine (ITM) reported the best pain relief and function, followed closely by the group combining spinal anesthesia with fentanyl and a TAP block (ITF+TAP).
  • The general anesthesia group experienced the worst pain and had the quickest request for additional analgesia, highlighting the effectiveness of multimodal analgesia in enhancing postoperative recovery.
