Manometria is a medical test that measures pressure in body cavities or organs. It works by inserting a thin tube called a catheter into the body cavity or organ and then connecting it to a manometer, which is a device that measures pressure. The manometer then provides readings of the pressure inside the body part being tested.

Traditional Roman houses and Greek houses were similarly constructed, with rooms arranged around a central courtyard. Both had interior decorations like paintings on walls and mosaics on floors. They also contained similar rooms like private bathrooms, offices, and entertainment rooms. While furnishings differed slightly, with Romans using less furniture, both cultures focused interior decorations on walls and floors. The layout of rooms also distinguished uses between men and women.

The main scripting elements in JSP are scriptlets that contain Java code in <% %> tags, expressions that output dynamic content in <%= %> tags, and declarations in <%! %> tags. Directives like page, include, and tag are used to control page attributes and imports with <%@ %> tags. Actions are used to encapsulate reusable code in custom tags.

This document is a motion filed by the City of Blackacre opposing Arthur Merlin's motion to dismiss charges of disorderly conduct on double jeopardy grounds. It summarizes that Merlin was arrested at the BMV for an outstanding warrant and resisted arrest, during which he engaged in six minutes of disruptive and threatening behavior. He pled guilty to resisting arrest in county court but now faces municipal charges of disorderly conduct related to the same incident. The city argues disorderly conduct has different elements than resisting arrest and therefore constitutes a separate offense for which double jeopardy does not apply.
Lushchyk et al. the epma journal
The document discusses strategies for improving cardiovascular disease diagnosis and treatment in Ukraine. It argues that current approaches are insufficient as they focus on static examination of individual vascular segments rather than a dynamic, integrated analysis of the entire cardiovascular system. The article recommends predictive, preventive, and personalized medicine approaches using new technologies developed in Ukraine, such as ultrasound dopplerography, that allow comprehensive examination of vascular function and blood flow dynamics. Clinical trials of these innovative strategies showed improved treatment outcomes compared to conventional methods.
Oceania
This document provides an overview of the geopolitical environment in Oceania, focusing on New Zealand and Australia. It outlines that New Zealand has a parliamentary democracy and was first inhabited by the Maori people over 1000 years ago.

The document discusses two techniques for treating primary inguinal hernias - the Lichtenstein vs Rutkow-Robbins technique. A 2006 study by Bolognini et al found no statistically significant differences in long-term results between the two groups. Additionally, a 2007 study by Frey et al also found the Lichtenstein operation and mesh plug repair to have comparable perioperative complications and recurrence rates.
Hernias de la pared abdominal
Este documento describe diferentes tipos de hernias abdominales. Define una hernia como la protrusión de estructuras abdominales a través de un orificio en la pared abdominal contenidas en un saco herniario. Describe las hernias umbilicales, inguinales y epigástricas, incluyendo sus factores de riesgo, síntomas, diagnóstico y tratamiento quirúrgico. Las hernias inguinales son las más comunes y se clasifican anatómicamente como directas o indirectas.

Asimismo, presenta los principales avances en imagen mamaria, como el sistema BIRADS para la clasificación de hallazgos.
Clasificación molecular del cáncer de mama
El documento describe tres clasificaciones moleculares para el cáncer de mama que predicen el pronóstico y guían el tratamiento adyuvante: ONCOTYPE analiza la expresión de 21 genes para predecir el riesgo de recurrencia; MAMAPRINT clasifica los tumores en buenos y malos pronósticos; e H/I clasifica los tumores en dos subtipos con diferentes pronósticos. ONCOTYPE analiza específicamente 16 genes relacionados con el cáncer y 5 genes normativos.
Cirugía preservadora de mama
El documento discute la cirugía conservadora del cáncer de mama. Explica que estudios como los de Milan y NSABP-B06 demostraron que la cirugía conservadora más radioterapia ofrece similares tasas de supervivencia que la mastectomía, siempre que se sigan los criterios adecuados.

Cancer de endometrio
Fernando Jiménez Medina discusses endometrial cancer. In 2012 in the USA, there were approximately 47,100 new cases of endometrial cancer with around 8,000 deaths. 75% of endometrial cancers are diagnosed at an early stage. The 5-year survival rate is 88%. Hysterectomy is the primary treatment for endometrial cancer. Lymph node removal may also be performed.
Radioterapia en CaCu
Este documento resume las guías actuales para el tratamiento del cáncer endometrial. Para el cáncer en estadio inicial, la histerectomía radical es el tratamiento estándar, con radioterapia adyuvante recomendada para aquellos con riesgo intermedio o alto de recurrencia. Para estadios avanzados o no operables, se recomienda radioterapia externa y braquiterapia, con quimioterapia concomitante a base de cisplatino. La quimioradioterapia concomitante ha demostrado mejor
Anatomia y embriologia de paratiroides
Las glándulas paratiroides son cuatro pequeñas glándulas que secretan hormona paratiroidea (PTH) y se ubican detrás y alrededor de la glándula tiroides. Tienen función en el metabolismo mineral óseo al aumentar la reabsorción de calcio a nivel renal e incrementar la liberación de calcio y fosfato desde los huesos. La PTH se sintetiza en las células principales de las glándulas paratiroides y regula los niveles séricos de calcio.
