Performance Evaluation of Instrument Transformers in Power Quality Measurements: Activities and Results from 19NRM05 IT4PQ Project

The accuracy of power quality measurements relies on the use of common measurement procedures and traceable measurement systems, which necessarily include instrument transformers. The paper provides an overview of the progress achieved within the EU project 19NRM05 IT4PQ in developing the needed metrological framework, in terms of performance indexes to qualify the instrument transformers for PQ measurements, simplified testing procedures and set-ups, and quantification of their behaviour under multiple influence factor

The Role of Preconditioning and N-Acetylcysteine on Oxidative Stress Resulting From Tourniquet-Induced Ischemia-Reperfusion in Arthroscopic Knee Surgery

Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of ischemic preconditioning (IPC) and N-acetylcysteine (NAC) on oxidative stress resulting from tourniquet-induced ischemia-reperfusion (IR) period in arthroscopic knee surgery
