Effect of institutional volume on laparoscopic cholecystectomy outcomes: systematic review and meta-analysis
(Baishideng Publishing Group Inc., 2015-01-01)AIM: To determine whether institutional laparoscopy cholecystectomy (LC) volume affects rates of mortality, conversion to open surgery, bile leakage and bile duct injury (BDI). METHODS: Eligible studies were prospective ... -
The effect of intraluminal contact mediated guidance signals on axonal mismatch during peripheral nerve repair
(Elsevier, 2012-06-25)The current microsurgical gold standard for repairing long gap nerve injuries is the autograft. Autograft provides a protective environment for repair and a natural internal architecture, which is essential for regeneration. ... -
Effect of level of eicosapentaenoic acid on the transcriptional regulation of δ-9 desaturase using a novel in vitro bovine intramuscular adipocyte cell culture model
(Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2009-02-06)Ruminant fat is often perceived as having a negative impact on human health; however, the composition of the fat is under complex biochemical control and can be improved through strategic manipulation of the animal's diet. ... -

The effect of medical device regulations on deploying a Lean Six Sigma project
(MDPI, 2022-11-05)This paper investigates the differences in timelines involved in Lean Six Sigma (LSS) project deployment in a regulated industry versus in an unregulated one. Two case studies utilising Lean Six Sigma methods¿in order to ... -
Effect of microfibril twisting on theoretical powder diffraction patterns of cellulose iβ
(Springer Nature, 2013-09-25)Previous studies of calculated diffraction patterns for cellulose crystallites suggest that distortions that arise once models have been subjected to molecular dynamics (MD) simulation are the result of both microfibril ... -
Effect of microwave and thermal co-pyrolysis of low-rank coal and pine wood on product distributions and char structure
(American Chemical Society, 2019-07-07)Direct conversion of a low-rank coal into valuable chemicals or improving its char’s coking value became very demanding goals in coal utilization strategies. In this work, the co-pyrolysis of a low-rank lignite coal and ... -
Effect of modeling approach on climate change focused life cycle assessments for a contemporary smartphone device
(2014)Life cycle assessments (LCA) of consumer electronics and beyond are usually performed and reported very differently. As a result it is often difficult to assess the robustness, variability and transparency of reported LCA ... -
