BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The ability of US to differentiate benign thyroid nodules from malignant ones is still a matter of debate. The aim of this study was to assess the diagnostic efficacy of a US-based classification system for solid and PCTNs thr...

Title
Cleft palate is among the most common structural birth defects in humans. Previous studies have shown that mutations in FOXF2 are associated with cleft palate in humans and mice and that Foxf2 acts in a Shh-Foxf-Fgf18-Shh molecular network controllin...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Flow-diverter treatment for previously stented aneurysms has been reported to be less effective and prone to complications. In this study, we evaluated the effectiveness and safety of flow diverters for recurrent aneurysms aft...
Abstract Evidence suggests that a non-zero dawn–dusk interplanetary magnetic field (IMF By) can cause a rotation of the cross-tail current sheet/neutral sheet around its axis aligned with the Sun–Earth line in Earth’s magnetotail. We use Geotail, THE...
© 1983-2012 IEEE. High-performance III-V quantum-dot lasers monolithically grown on Si substrates have been demonstrated as a promising solution to realize Si-based laser sources with very low threshold current density, high output power, and long li...

Hyperglycemia upregulates thioredoxin interacting protein (TXNIP) expression, which in turn induces ROS production, inflammatory and fibrotic responses in the diabetic kidney. Dysregulation of autophagy contributes to the development of diabetic neph...
Intermittency of low-drag pointwise wall shear stress measurements within Newtonian turbulent channel flow at transitional Reynolds numbers (friction Reynolds numbers 70 – 130) is characterized using experiments and simulations. Conditional mean velo...
