Septic arthritis and osteomyelitis due to Serratia marcescens in immunocompetent patients without risk factors are extremely rare.Here, we report a case of septic arthritis and severe adjacent osteomyelitis of the tibia due to Hose Clamp Serratia marcescens in a diabetic community-dweller patient.The patient had no contact with healthcare Armchair
First Principeles Initio Study of the Electronic and Optical Properties of Bulk TiC and Its Narrow Nanowires by Density Functional Theory
In ART this article, the electronic and optical properties of bulk TiC and its narrow nanowires were investigated using Quantum-Espresso/PWSCF computational package in the framework of density functional theory.According to the results, this compound showed a metallic behavior in the bulk structure, but the small diameters of the nanowires against
Attention-Guided Feature Extraction and Multiscale Feature Fusion 3D ResNet for Automated Pulmonary Nodule Detection
Automatic detection of pulmonary nodules is critical for the early diagnosis and prevention of lung cancer.Computed tomography (CT) is an effective and economical lung cancer detection method.In CT images, the size and shape of pulmonary nodules appear different, and some nodules appear similar to the surrounding tissues.Therefore, the automatic lo
