Development and Validation of a Simplified Probability Assessment Score Integrated With Age‐Adjusted d‐Dimer for Diagnosis of Acute Aortic Syndromes

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association : Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Background When acute aortic syndromes (AASs) are suspected, pretest clinical probability assessment and d‐dimer (DD) testing are diagnostic options allowing standardized care.

Influence of ACE Gene I/D Polymorphism on Cardiometabolic Risk, Maximal Fat Oxidation, Cardiorespiratory Fitness, Diet and Physical Activity in Young Adults

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2021
There is controversy about the relationship between ACE I/D polymorphism and health. Seventy-four healthy adults (n = 28 women; 22.5 ± 4.2 years) participated in this cross-sectional study aimed at determining the influence of ACE I/D polymorphism ...

Double-heavy tetraquark states with heavy diquark-antiquark symmetry * [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We make a calculation on the masses of the $QQ\bar{q}\bar{q}$ ($Q=c,b$; $q=u,d,s$) tetraquark states with the help of heavy diquark-antiquark symmetry (HDAS) and the chromomagnetic interaction (CMI) model.

Short-range airborne route dominates exposure of respiratory infection during close contact

open access: yesBuilding and Environment, 2020
A susceptible person experiences the highest exposure risk of respiratory infection when he or she is in close proximity with an infected person. The large droplet route has been commonly believed to be dominant for most respiratory infections since the ...

Performance of D-dimer for predicting sepsis mortality in the intensive care unit

open access: yesBiochemia Medica, 2021
Introduction The prognostic value of D-dimer (DD) in sepsis remains controversial. This study aimed to investigate the performance of DD for predicting sepsis mortality in the hospital and for identifying its potential correlates.

AAPM's TG-51 protocol for clinical reference dosimetry of high-energy photon and electron beams.

open access: yesMedical Physics (Lancaster), 1999
A protocol is prescribed for clinical reference dosimetry of external beam radiation therapy using photon beams with nominal energies between 60Co and 50 MV and electron beams with nominal energies between 4 and 50 MeV.

Electric Dipole Moment of the Neutron from 2+1 Flavor Lattice QCD. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2015
We compute the electric dipole moment d(n) of the neutron from a fully dynamical simulation of lattice QCD with 2+1 flavors of clover fermions and nonvanishing θ term.
