New innovations in drilling also include multilateral and multibranch wells. A multilateral well has more than one horizontal (or near horizontal) lateral drilled from a single site and connected to a single wellbore. A multibranch well has more then one branch drilled from a single site and connected to a single wellbore. Although not as pervasive in the offshore as in the onshore because of the necessity of pressure-sealed systems, multilateral and multibranch wells are expected to be more important factors in future offshore development. 7, record 4, English, - multibranch%20well

Record number: 6, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Higher-speed roads include motorways, expressways and multi-lane, divided highways with limited access. They are designed to allow for higher speeds by providing large-radius horizontal and vertical curves, "forgiving" roadsides, entry and exit "grade-separated" junctions - where there is no contact between motorized and non-motorized traffic - and median barriers to separate opposing directions of traffic. Such roads have the lowest rates of road injury in terms of distance travelled because of these design features and the fact that non-motorized users are prohibited. 3, record 6, English, - high%2Dspeed%20road

Les routes à grande vitesse comprennent les autoroutes, les voies rapides et les routes à voies multiples ainsi que les routes à chaussées séparées et à accès limité. Elles sont conçues pour permettre des vitesses supérieures en prévoyant des virages horizontaux et verticaux à large rayon, des bords de route plus «sécuritaires», des intersections à entrée et sortie avec échangeurs-où il n’ y a aucun contact entre le trafic motorisé et non motorisé-et des parapets séparant les voitures roulant en sens opposés. Ces routes ont les taux d’accidents les plus faibles par rapport à la distance parcourue en raison de leurs caractéristiques et du fait que les usagers non motorisés y sont interdits de circulation. 2, record 6, French, - route%20%C3%A0%20grande%20vitesse

Sometimes a second-look laparoscopy may be recommended and is performed following a previous laparoscopy or major abdominal surgery (laparotomy). Second-look laparoscopy may be performed within a few days, weeks, or months following the initial laparoscopy or laparotomy. During a second-look procedure, the physician determines the results of the initial procedure, for example whether adhesions are forming or if endometriosis is returning. If so, these problems can be treated at the time of the second-look laparoscopy. 1, record 7, English, - second%2Dlook%20laparoscopy

La laparoscopie offre un taux de faux négatif de 20 à 30 % par l'impossibilité d’explorer toute la cavité abdominale et le rétropéritoine, et n’ offre aucune possibilité de cytoréduction chirurgicale. L'intervention de second regard faite par voie médiane sus et sous ombilicale doit donc être une intervention de haute technicité, car du bilan per opératoire et du geste chirurgical éventuellement réalisé dépendent les décisions thérapeutiques ultérieures : abstention et surveillance, poursuite de la chimiothérapie, intensification thérapeutique, radiothérapie ou associations multiples, ou autres essais thérapeutiques de phase I-II. 2, record 7, French, - laparoscopie%20de%20second%20regard
