Quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) remains to play an important role in clinical trials and post-marketing surveillance related to the safety and efficacy of new PCI devices. In this document, the current standard methodology of QCA is summarized. In addition, its history, recent development and future perspectives are also reviewed.PURPOSE…[Read more]

For battery-like processes, a high C’ is only observed at the voltage at which the material stores charge, while outside that voltage, C’ is negligible. The three-dimensional (3D) Bode analysis allows charge-storage dynamics to be mapped out in great detail with more delineation between mechanisms compared to the more frequently deployed kinetic…[Read more]

Satellite viruses, most commonly found in plants, rely on helper viruses to complete their replication cycle. The only known example of a human satellite virus is the hepatitis D virus (HDV), and it is generally thought to require hepatitis B virus (HBV) to form infectious particles. Until 2018, HDV was the sole representative of the genus…[Read more]

This was attributed to the lower density of the air and the higher dissipation of turbulent kinetic energy due to bubble-liquid interactions in the two-phase flow case.Knowledge of particulate system properties is very important in various industrial instances and the possibility of fast predicting the behavior of such systems is an important…[Read more]

81 at the test point, 0.63 at 0.1°, and 0.62 at 0.5°) than the multimodel mean (R2 = 0.28 at 0.5°). Global ozone exposure is estimated to be increasing, driven by highly populated regions of Asia and Africa, despite decreases in the United States and Russia.We report the color conversion performance of amber and red emitting quantum dots (QDs) on…[Read more]

Differences in joint load directions were smaller but still evident, indicating that joint load directions might be a more robust indicator of variation in hand use than joint load magnitudes. Overall, this study emphasizes the importance of including muscular forces in the interpretation of skeletal remains and promotes the use of musculoskeletal…[Read more]

Studies have identified concurrent, longitudinal, and bidirectional associations between language difficulties and internalizing problems. This is commonly explained by social exclusion or withdrawal from peers, but underlying mechanisms are not well understood. This study uses sibling data to investigate if the comorbidity between language…[Read more]
