Objective: Individuals with CP have a lower life expectancy than the general population. The objective of the study is to investigate the risk factor of mortality in Indonesian children with CP.
Methods: An observational analytic study was conducted using medical records at pediatric ward Dr.
An oscillator-amplifier high-power Nd:YAG laser system was used for transmission of a single 50-ps-long pulse or a train of pulses through a cyclic olefin polymer-coated silver hollow-glass waveguide. The maximum energy that was transmitted was 150 mJ for the train of pulses and 40 mJ for the single pulse, from which followed a delivered power of 100 GW/cm(2) . The characteristics that were obtained make these waveguides promising for the delivery of high-power laser pulses in medical as well as other applications.

The second harmonic of a Nd:YAG double-mode-locked laser system was used as a pump radiation source. The first Stokes conversion efficiency reached 38% in a single-pass setup and 85% in a double-pass setup.

Methods: All patients with a SBI admitted to an emergency department in the region were included during a 1-year period.
Objective: Study of the recovery of neuromuscular block after continuous infusion of cisatracurium in patients with renal dysfunction.
Study Design: Prospective case-control study.
Patients: Forty adult patients scheduled for urological surgery were assigned to two groups according to the creatinine clearance (CC) as a measure of the renal function: group IR (CC < 60 mL.
