Introduction: This study compared traditional manual methods and power tool use with regard to the speed and accuracy of percutaneous pedicle screw (PPS) placement and determined the advantages associated with the use of power tools.Although the indication of PPS placement in minimally invasive spine stabilization (MISt) procedures has been recentl
This study investigates the relative importance of diagnostic cues used by female consumers in an emerging market to evaluate work wear assortments in major South African department stores.The cue diagnostic framework was used as a theoretical perspective for the study together with conjoint analysis to provide insights into the relative importance
In 1994, Douglas Graham Altman, one of the greatest statisticians of all time, wrote "We need less research, better research, and research done Exfoliants for good reasons".Twenty-seven years ago, Altman pointed out that the system favored unscientific behavior and that "bad science" was easy to publish, highlighting the financial implications of t
Realization of indefinite causal order (ICO), a theoretical possibility that even causal relations between physical events can be subjected to quantum superposition, apart from its general significance for the fundamental physics research, would also enable quantum information processing that outperforms protocols in which the underlying causal str
Telco edge data centers (DCs) accommodate applications whose load fluctuates considerably during a day.This variability mandates swift and responsive resource adjustments to mitigate the risk of incurring unnecessary costs during off-peak periods, where a significant fraction of nodes may be under-utilized.Tackling this challenge is integral to opt
