This paper presents an effective voltage control scheme for an open-end winding (OEW) inverter topology with a single DC supply.The proposed configuration consists of a 3-level flying capacitor inverter at one end, and a floating capacitor fed 2-level inverter at the other end.This dual inverter configuration is operated in the maximal distention m
Generation of mouse and rat xenogeneic ovaries in vitro for production of mouse oocyte
The system forming ovarian follicles is developed to investigate in vitro folliculogenesis in a confined environment to obtain functional oocytes.Several studies have reported the successful generation of fully functional oocytes using mouse-induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and mouse female germline stem cells (fGSCs) as sources of stem cells
Evaluation of novel radiation protection devices during radiologically guided interventions
Abstract Background In radiologically guided interventions, medical practitioners are subjected to radiation exposure, which may lead to radiation-induced diseases.In Over-Ear this study, novel radiation shields for the head and neck were evaluated for their potential to reduce radiation exposure.Method An anthropomorphic phantom was exposed on its
Left atrial dissection after a supra-annular mitral valve replacement for endocarditis
Abstract Background Left atrial dissection is a rare and a potentially fatal complication of cardiac surgery.Multi-modal imagery is helpful for the diagnosis and to guide the treatment.Case presentation We report the case of a 66-year-old female Allergy patient who underwent a combined mitral and aortic valve replacement for degenerative valvular d
