1. BACKGROUND In 2002, the Philippines changed its antimalarial drug policy to the combination treatment, CQ+ Sulphadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) as 1st-line treatment and artemether-lumefantrine as 2nd-line treatment. The Department of Health (DOH) prescribed the use of artemether-lumefantrine (AL)
This is a randomized single-blind, non-inferiorty trial. Abdominal sacrocolpopexy is considered the gold standard for vault prolapse, and has demonstrated superior anatomic outcomes compared to transvaginal suspension procedures. Sacrocolpopexy involves suspension of the vagina to the anterior
Endoscopic biliary drainage with a self-expandable metal stent (SEMS) is an accepted form of palliative therapy for distal malignant biliary obstruction (MBO); it is a low invasive procedure with a long-term patency.
Covered SEMSs have a longer patency than uncovered SEMSs in patients with MBO,
Acute cholecystitis is an inflammatory process presenting with biliary colic that is unremitting and may persist for more than 1 day. Obstruction of the cystic duct by a gallstone is the initiating event that leads to distention, inflammation and edema of the gallbladder wall. When the gallbladder

The interesting material properties, such as good mechanical strength, electrical conductivity, low density, porosity adaptable, are closely associated to the intrinsic characteristics of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), of which BP is made . The high surface development of CNT, in addition to promoting
The use of HTS after DCL may decrease the rate of failure to achieve PFC and reduce the number of complications associated with an open abdomen.
Research Questions:
1. Primary Objective: Is there a higher rate of PFC among patients who undergo DCL and temporary abdominal closure when using HTS
The Buckypaper (BP) is an innovative material that has attracted the attention of many research groups engaged in the study of its possible applications in various technological fields preliminary to human experimentation. In fact the experimentation, preliminary conducted on animal model, will be
