Background: Single-port laparoscopic surgery (SPLS) is increasingly used in surgery and in the treatment of perforated duodenal ulcer. The aim of this study was to evaluate technical factors for perforated duodenal ulcer repair by SPLS. Methods: A prospective study on 42 consecutive patients diagnosed with perforated duodenal ulcer and treated with SPLS at Hue university of medicine and pharmacy hospital and Hue central hospital from January 2012 to February 2015. Results: The mean age was 48.1 ± 14.2 (17 - 79) years. 40 patients were treated with suture of the perforation by pure SPLS. There was one case (2.4%) in which one additional trocar was required. Conversion to open surgery was necessary in one patient (2.4%) in which the perforation was situated on the posterior duodenal wall. Two patients (4.8%) with history of abdominal surgery were successfully treated by pure SPLS. The size of perforation was correlated with suturing time (correlation coefficient r = 0.459) and operative time (correlation coefficient r = 0.528). Considering suture type, X stitches were used in 95.5% cases, simple stitches were used in one case (2.4%) while Graham patch repair technique was utilized in one case (2.4%) with large perforation. Most cases (95.1%) required only simple suture without omental patch. Peritoneal drainage was spared in most cases (90.2%). Conclusions: SPLS is a safe method for the treatment of perforated duodenal ulcer. Posterior duodenal location is the main cause of conversion to open surgery. Factor related to operative time is perforation size. Key words: perforated duodenal ulcer, single port laparoscopic repair, single port laparoscopy

We analyze simultaneous radio-X-ray data of Cygnus X-l from the Ryle telescope (RT) and RXTE over more than 4 a. We show that apparent correlations on short time scales in the lightcurves of Cyg X-l are probably the coincidental outcome of white noise statistics.As a measure of correlation between radio and X-ray emission, we calculate the maximum cross-correlation coefficient, ccf, of simultaneous radio and X-ray lightcurves, which are rebinned to a resolution of 32 s and smoothed. Every single X-ray lightcurve segment is cross-correlated with the corresponding radio lightcurve, up to a maximum shift Δt = ±10 h.

We study the short time dynamics of a two-dimensional Ising model with a line of defects. The dynamical critical exponent θ associated to the early time regime at the critical temperature was obtained by Monte Carlo simulations. The exponent θ was estimated by a method where the quantity of interest is the time correlation of the magnetization.

The aim of laser guided weapons adopting laser code and decode is to resolve the mutual interference of multiple irradiator in the same war zone. As an effective interfering means, active interference makes the laser guided weapons lose the right object information to protect the important objects in the attack phase by sending much interfering signal. But how to intercept, capture, analyze and identify the laser guided signal code information real-time is the first task in the laser countwork. Based on analyzing the characters of existed laser coding and wave gate, combining the time-correlation character of laser guided signal, this paper proposes the technique of laser guided signal information autocorrelation identification, and it is studied deeply by simulation and experiment. The result shows that the technique resolved the difficult problem of copying the enemy laser signal in short time effectively. The technique wins the time for the laser countwork, and it is feasible and takes on military application value.

ABSTRACTSARS-CoV-2 was reported to the WHO as an outbreak in Wuhan City, China on end of 2019, afterwards pandemic on the worldwide in 2020. The SARS-CoV-2 virus is less deadly, but far more transmissible. Therefore, it needs to detect and monitor quickly and simply on site to prevent SARS-CoV-2.If detecting coronaviruses including SARS-CoV-2, the real-time RT-PCR method is sensitive and specific for the unique target, however, it must take long time and labour that RNA is treated in advance, transcribed and amplified. Therefore, referenced previously report, in this study, we modified various methods to prove hypotheses the followed.Firstly, we hypothesized that real-time RT-PCR could be finished in very short time by the mobile real-time PCR device and one-step RT-PCR reagent. Secondly, we hypothesized that it was possible to perform RT-PCR utilizing the reagent as the above without RNA treatment in advance so called “direct”.Firstly, it was able to detect the positive control RNA of SARS-CoV-2 for less than 13.5 minutes by primer-probe referring to the CDC. Moreover, each detection value varied in accordance with each concentration (This correlation coefficient R2 > 0.95). Secondary, it was possible to detect human coronavirus 229E with direct RT-PCR. Furthermore, each detection value varied in accordance with each titer (TCID50 / mL) of human coronavirus 229E (This correlation coefficient R2 > 0.95).Considering the above, causing by utilizing the mobile real-time PCR device and the one-step real-time PCR reagent simultaneously following as: 1) It was possible to detect SARS-CoV-2 in very short time as compared to conventional method; 2) It was possible to detect human coronavirus quickly and simply with “direct”. For these reasons, we hypothesized that it is possible to detect SARS-CoV-2 quickly and simply by utilizing methods the above without treating RNA in advance. This hypothesis is our next try.STRENGTHS AND LIMITATIONS OF THIS STUDY*This study developed it possible to detect the positive control RNA of SARS-CoV-2 more quickly than previously, however couldn’t try to detect the genetic RNA.*This study proved clearly that the human coronavirus instead of SARS-CoV-2 could be detected simply without treating RNA in advance by the same method above.*This study couldn’t try to utilize the human specimens because of our institution limited.*This study could utilize the device and the reagents commercial and not especial.

The correlation between the velocity of two successive vehicles as a function of time headway is studied in the one-dimensional cellular automata (CA) NaSch model within parallel dynamic update. It is found that a strong correlation occurs in short time headway. The behavior of the correlation velocity as a function of the car density in different traffic states is also investigated. Moreover, our study is also extended to a more complicated situation where the two vehicles are separated by a number n of other vehicles. It is shown that the velocity correlation coefficient depends strongly on the number n of vehicles in between and on their positions.
