Atypical Hemorrhages Secondary to Dengue Infection and Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation: Subcutaneous Thrombin Injection as a Salvage Technique for Refractory Femoral Artery Hemorrhage.

Dengue fever is a viral infection transmitted by the bites of female mosquitoes. Repeat infections with different viral serotypes are possible, with an increased risk of severe dengue. Dengue hemorrhagic fever is one of the most severe presentations of dengue, with thrombocytopenia, increased capillary permeability with resultant rash, and an increased risk of spontaneous bleeding.

Numerical Modelling and Analytical Comparison of Delamination during Cryogenic Drilling of CFRP.

Carbon-Fibre-Reinforced Polymers (CFRPs) have seen a steady rise in modern industrial applications due to their high strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance. However, their potential is being hindered by delamination which is induced on them during machining operations. This has led to the adoption of new and innovative techniques like cryogenic-assisted machining which could potentially help reduce delamination.

4D Printing of Smart Polymer Nanocomposites: Integrating Graphene and Acrylate Based Shape Memory Polymers.

The ever-increasing demand for materials to have superior properties and satisfy functions in the field of soft robotics and beyond has resulted in the advent of the new field of four-dimensional (4D) printing. The ability of these materials to respond to various stimuli inspires novel applications and opens several research possibilities. In this work, we report on the 4D printing of one such Shape Memory Polymer (SMP) tBA-co-DEGDA (tert-Butyl Acrylate with diethylene glycol diacrylate).

Effect of Cryogenic Grinding on Fatigue Life of Additively Manufactured Maraging Steel.

Additive manufacturing (AM) is replacing conventional manufacturing techniques due to its ability to manufacture complex structures with near-net shape and reduced material wastage. However, the poor surface integrity of the AM parts deteriorates the service life of the components. The AM parts should be subjected to post-processing treatment for improving surface integrity and fatigue life.

Financial burden and financial aid for medical students in Singapore: a national survey across all three medical schools.

Introduction: Singapore has had three medical schools since 2013. We undertook a cross-sectional quantitative national survey to determine the financial impact of medical education on medical students in Singapore.

Methods: All 1,829 medical students in Singapore were invited to participate in this study.
