Risk factors for spinal subdural hematoma after minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar Interbody Fusion (MI-TLIF): a multivariate analysis

Abstract Background Spinal subdural hematoma (SSH) is a rare fee rule cause of compression of the neutral elements of the spinal cord.However, little is known about the presentation of acute SSH after lumbar spine surgery.The reason for this may be that symptomatic SSH occurs rarely and is not given enough attention by spine surgeons.Currently, the

Analysis of Dynamic Behavior of Gas Bubbles and Solid Particles in an Oscillatory Baffled Reactor and Its Application to Design of Hydrogenation Proces

In this paper, the dynamic behavior of gas bubbles and flow in a liquid-gas-solid oscillatory baffled reactor (OBR) was analyzed.A method based on baffle and oscillating flow induced vorticity was employed to analyze the dynamic gas bubble behavior and elucidate key parameters that govern the flow phenomena and reactor performances.Through visualiz
