A COMPARATIVE STUDY ON THE EFFICACY OF 10% HYPERTONIC SALINE AND EQUAL VOLUME OF 20% MANNITOL IN THE TREATMENT OF EXPERIMENTALLY INDUCED CEREBRAL EDEMA IN ADULT RATS

Abstract Background Hypertonic saline and mannitol are commonly used in the treatment of cerebral edema Goalkeeper Gloves and elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) at present.In this connection, 10% hypertonic saline (HS) alleviates cerebral edema more effectively than the equal volume of 20% mannitol.However, the exact underlying mechanism for this

Combining research areas of biomechanics and pedestrian dead reckoning (PDR) provides a very promising way for pedestrian positioning in environments where Global Positioning System (GPS) signals are degraded or unavailable.In recent years, the PDR systems based on a smartphone’s built-in inertial sensors have attracted much attention in such

IntroductionStudies focusing on coopetition and dynamic capabilities have expanded significantly over the past several decades.Coopetition strategy and dynamic capabilities are increasingly recognised as sources of sustained competitive advantage.The purpose of this paper is to provide a better understanding of the factors driving growth performanc

We analysed the different aspects of the spatial distribution of 542 Gamma-Ray Bursts with precisely determined positions and spectroscopic redshifts.The Pizza Peels data were divided according to the origin of the redshift (afterglow or host galaxy).The yearly rate of afterglow and host-based redshift observations are different, with only a few ho

Fragmentary but associated dinosaur bones collected in 1930 from the Pine Modern POP River of northeastern British Columbia are identified here as originating from an ankylosaur.The specimen represents only the second occurrence of dinosaur skeletal material from the Cenomanian Dunvegan Formation and the first from Dunvegan outcrops in the province
