Comparison of Doxycycline, Minocycline, Doxycycline plus Albendazole and Albendazole Alone in Their Efficacy against Onchocerciasis in a Randomized, Open-Label, Pilot Trial.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2017
The search for new macrofilaricidal drugs against onchocerciasis that can be administered in shorter regimens than required for doxycycline (DOX, 200mg/d given for 4-6 weeks), identified minocycline (MIN) with superior efficacy to DOX.

A tale of 2-groups: D p (USp(2N)) theories

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023
A 1-form symmetry and a 0-form symmetry may combine to form an extension known as the 2-group symmetry. We find the presence of the latter in a class of Argyres-Douglas theories, called D p (USp(2N)), which can be realized by ℤ2-twisted compactification ...

Impacts of the three-dimensional radiative effects on cloud droplet number concentration retrieval and regression-based albedo susceptibility estimates [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics
Cloud droplet number concentration (Nd) in warm liquid clouds plays a crucial role in understanding cloud microphysical processes and the influence of aerosol–cloud interactions (ACI) on Earth's climate.

Correlations between weight-bearing 3D bone architecture and dynamic plantar pressure measurements in the diabetic foot

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, 2020
Background Measurements of plantar loading reveal foot-to-floor interaction during activity, but information on bone architecture cannot be derived. Recently, cone-beam computer tomography (CBCT) has given visual access to skeletal structures in weight ...

Comparison of different ROI analysis methods for liver lesion characterization with simplified intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM)

Scientific Reports, 2021
This study investigated the impact of different ROI placement and analysis methods on the diagnostic performance of simplified IVIM-DWI for differentiating liver lesions. 1.5/3.0-T DWI data from a respiratory-gated MRI sequence (b = 0, 50, 250, 800 s/mm2)

Parotid gland-recovery after radiotherapy in the head and neck region - 36 months follow-up of a prospective clinical study

Radiation Oncology, 2011
Background The aim of the present study was to evaluate the recovery potential of the parotid glands after using either 3D-conformal-radiotherapy (3D-CRT) or intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) by sparing one single parotid gland.

Relationship between distal radius fracture severity and 25-hydroxyvitamin-D level among perimenopausal and postmenopausal women

Bone & Joint Open, 2022
Aims Low-energy distal radius fractures (DRFs) are the most common upper arm fractures correlated with bone fragility. Vitamin D deficiency is an important risk factor associated with DRFs.

Line defects in three dimensional mirror symmetry beyond linear quivers

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022
The map of half-BPS line defects under mirror symmetry has previously been worked out for 3d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 linear quivers with unitary gauge groups, where these defects have a clear realization in terms of a brane picture in Type IIB String ...

Absence of D 4 R 4 in M-theory from ABJM

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020
Supersymmetry allows a D 4 R 4 interaction in M-theory, but such an interaction is inconsistent with string theory dualities and so is known to be absent.
