The electrical performance is mainly described by measuring both cell short circuit current and open circuit voltage. The measurements of this cell by using multimeters suffer from some problems because the cell has high current intensity with low output voltage. So, the solar cell short circuit current values are obtained by measuring the voltage developed across a known resistance Current Shunt. Samples of the obtained current values are accurately calibrated by using a Micropotentiometer (μpot) thermal element (TE) to validate this new measuring technique. Moreover, the solar cell open circuit voltage has been measured. Besides, the cell output power has been calculated and can be correlated with the measured incident radiation.展开更多

Patients and Methods: A retrospective review of the cardiac surgical database between January 2000 and December 2018 was performed. A total of 1667 patients were included and divided into two groups: Group A isolated valve surgery (IVS n = 1608) and Group B with valve surgery combined to coronary artery bypass grafting (VS + CABG n = 59). Demographic, operative data and postoperative outcomes were compared between groups. Results: Patients with combined procedure were older than patients who underwent isolated valvular surgery (64.9 ± 9.2 years vs 44.4 ± 13.1 years;p = 0.0001) and there was a higher proportion of diabetics (40.7% vs 6.6%;p = 0.0001). The 30 days mortality rate in the combined procedure group was 18.6% versus 6.2% in isolated valve surgery (p = 0.001). Also post-operative complications were more frequent than for patients who underwent IVS. Additionally we noted a high prevalence of coronary artery risk factors in patients with combined procedures. Conclusion: Surgical mortality and morbidity of coexisting coronary and heart valve disease were substantially higher than IVS. More efforts in medical management may reduce the incidence of adverse outcomes.展开更多
