Single port laparoscopic surgery is changing the standard of care in surgical care like nothing since the laparoscopic technique was introduced 20 years ago. We present out technique of single port donor nephrectomy using the Gelpoint device. We have successfully performed this surgery in 100 patients.

Serial Position Effect

2025
The serial position effect is a cognitive phenomenon where individuals are more likely to recall the first and last items in a list compared to those in the middle. This effect is divided into the primacy effect and the recency effect. The primacy effect is observed when the initial items in a list are remembered better. This occurs because these items are rehearsed more frequently or receive more elaborative processing, allowing them to be encoded into long-term memory more effectively. For...

Source: Jonathan F. Blaize1, Elizabeth Suter1, and Christopher P. Corbo1 1 Department of Biological Sciences, Wagner College, 1 Campus Road, Staten Island NY, 10301 Quantitative assessment of prokaryotes can be onerous given their abundance, propensity for exponential proliferation, species diversity within a population, and specific physiological needs. Compounding this challenge, is the four-phase nature in which bacteria replicate (lag, log, stationary and death). The ability to accurately...

FAQs
The adapter translates USB transactions into a sequential data stream that the connected serial device can use. This conversion allows newer computers and software to communicate with legacy equipment without replacing the instrument itself. In laboratory and clinical settings, that compatibility can extend the useful role of established devices within updated digital workflows.
A device driver allows the operating system to recognize the USB-serial controller or adapter and present it as a virtual serial or COM port. Software can then address the connection through that operating-system interface. Without this presentation layer, instrument configuration, measurement transfer, device testing, and data acquisition would not be available through the expected computer connection.
Both components perform the same essential conversion between USB transactions and sequential serial data, but they differ in placement. An integrated controller is built into the equipment or computer connection, whereas an adapter provides that function externally. The choice determines how legacy serial equipment is linked to a modern computer, while the communication role remains comparable.
A typical workflow connects the laboratory instrument, monitor, or other clinical device through an integrated controller or USB-to-serial adapter, allows the operating system to expose the connection as a virtual serial or COM port, and then uses software for configuration or communication. Researchers can test the device link before transferring measurements or collecting data.
In medicine, the connection can support laboratory instruments, monitors, and other clinical equipment that exchange information with a computer. It may carry configuration commands, measurements, or testing interactions, depending on the connected device and software. This makes the interface relevant both to routine instrument connectivity and to research workflows that gather data from medical equipment.
By linking instruments and monitors to computer software, the interface supports structured measurement transfer and research data acquisition. It can also provide a consistent path for device configuration and testing. These capabilities help researchers incorporate legacy serial equipment into modern computer-based workflows, making instrument use and collected measurements easier to integrate into reproducible digital procedures.
