Nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy is a safe and reliable technique for early invasive cervical carcinoma. The postoperative bladder function recovery and the patients' QOL were improved after NSRH compared with the control group. Therefore, NSRH could be an alternative management to modify the classical surgery for cervical carcinoma with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stages IB1 to IIA.
Two-dimensional
membranes with nanofluidic channels and a high chemical stability
are strongly needed in many practical applications. We present a facile
vacuum filtration method to fabricate a lamellar hybrid microstructure
with cellulose nanofibers and graphene oxide sheets. The flexible
and free-standing composite membrane obtained has uniformly distributed
interstitial voids that provide nanofluidic channels for ion transport.
The systematic measurement of the ionic currents through the nanofluidic
channels with various electrolytes at different concentrations establish
the surface-charge-governed ion-transport behavior. The ionic conductivity
through the nanofluidic channels at lower concentrations (≤10–4 M) can be enhanced by several orders of magnitude
and appears to be independent of the concentration of the bulk electrolytes
because of the successful hybridization of the negatively charged
and permselective nanochannels. The resulting devices have an excellent
chemical stability and maintain a stable ionic conductivity even after
immersion in basic or acidic solutions at high concentrations (1 M)
for half a month. Moreover, the activation energy and proton mobility
provide additional confirmations that the hybrid nanofluidic channels
lower the energy barrier for ion transport. The excellent performance
of the membrane makes it an outstanding candidate for stable and flexible
nanofluidic devices as well as other potential applications.
Modified pelvic floor reconstructive surgery with mesh had better anatomical and functional outcomes than APC at 4-5 years postoperation, as an alternative, cheap and effective treatment option to mesh kits for the management of POP.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
