A comparative analysis of biochemical blood picture was made in 20 patients with osteoma of the paranasal sinuses before and after surgical treatment. A total of 17 tests characterizing metabolism and 680 biochemical examinations were made. Investigation of mineral and other kinds of metabolism may be important in diagnosis of osteomas, hyperostosis, exostosis and malignant tumors, determination of activity and tumor growth rate.

Executive functions can be classified into processes of inhibition, working memory and shifting, which together support flexible and goal-directed behaviour and are crucial for both current and later-life outcomes. A large body of literature has identified distinct brain regions critical to performing each of these functions. These findings are however predicated on a piecemeal and single-task approach.

The Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method is expanding and applied to more and more fields, particularly in engineering. The majority of current SPH developments deal with free-surface and multiphase flows, especially for situations where geometrically complex interface configurations are involved. The present review article covers the last 25 years of development of the method to simulate such flows, discussing the related specific features of the method.

Objectives: To investigate the influence of frequency-specific audibility on audiovisual benefit in children, this study examined the impact of high- and low-pass acoustic filtering on auditory-only and audiovisual word and sentence recognition in children with typical hearing. Previous studies show that visual speech provides greater access to consonant place of articulation than other consonant features and that low-pass filtering has a strong impact on perception on acoustic consonant place of articulation. This suggests visual speech may be particularly useful when acoustic speech is low-pass filtered because it provides complementary information about consonant place of articulation.

Predicting discharge destination for patients at inpatient rehabilitation facilities is important as it facilitates transitions of care and can improve healthcare resource utilization. This study aims to build on previous studies investigating discharges from inpatient rehabilitation by employing machine learning models to predict discharge disposition to home versus non-home and explore related factors. Fifteen machine learning models were tested.

Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare inflammatory neutrophilic dermatosis that is difficult to diagnose due to non-specific clinical, laboratory, and histopathologic features. Distinguishing pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia (PEH) from squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is also histopathologically challenging. The connection between PEH and PG is not well recognized, and instances of PG mimicking SCC are rare.
