There are a large number of computer programs that allow you to automate computational and graphical operations for processing arrays of data and images. The foundations of these areas are very promising in the practice of solving problems of materials science, namely in metallography, based on the analysis of images of structures of metals and alloys. The standards describe various techniques, but they are all performed and calculated manually by the operator.

Materials And Methods: We examined 621 patients with AF using the Morisky-Green scale (MMAS-4) criteria to assess adherence to antithrombotic therapy. They received inpatient treatment during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Bladder cancer is a therapeutically challenging disease and wealth of knowledge has enabled researchers to develop a clear understanding of mechanisms which underlie carcinogenesis and metastasis. Excitingly, research over decades has unveiled wide-ranging mechanisms which serve as central engine in progression of bladder cancer. Loss of apoptosis, drug resistance, and pro-survival signaling are some of the highly studied cellular mechanisms.

The collection was screened for species identity using partial translation elongation factor 1-α () gene sequences. Altogether, 16 different species were identified, including eight known and four novel species, as well as the discovery of the phylogenetically divergent lineage.
