ENDOSCOPIC SUBMUCOSAL DISSECTION IN COLORECTAL NEOPLASIA PERFORMED WITH A WATERJET SYSTEM-ASSISTED KNIFE: HIGHER RESECTION RATE THAN CONVENTIONAL TECHNIQUE

Background/Aims Colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is burdened by its associated high risk of adverse events and long procedure time.Recently, a waterjet-assisted knife was introduced to simplify and speed up the procedure.The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of waterjet-assisted ESD (WESD) compared to that o

This paper presents a game-theoretic approach for solving network congestion in the Smart Grid.A smart grid environment with high penetration of Electric Vehicles (EVs) for a bidirectional power trade provides an opportunity to use the EVs for congestion management.Optimal power injected or drawn by the EV charging stations can be obtained to mitig

To realize a quantitative expression of change laws of the fracture surface shear strength with hydrochemical damage and to obtain optimal weakening effect of solution on the fracture surface strength, hard roof sandstone specimens containing hydraulic fracture surfaces from the Tashan Coal Mine located in Datong were subjected to a shear test afte
