Evidence-based robust design of deflection actions for near Earth objects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper presents a novel approach to the robust design of deflection actions for Near Earth Objects (NEO). In particular, the case of deflection by means of Solar-pumped Laser ablation is studied here in detail. The basic idea behind Laser ablation is

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...

Cryoballoon ablation for atrial fibrillation in South Africa: One-year outcome from the Cryo Global Registry

open access: yesSouth African Medical Journal
Background. Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) with cryoballoon catheter ablation (CBA) is a well-established and widely adopted method for the treatment of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) to prevent recurrences of AF.

Ablation in Externally Applied Electric and Magnetic Fields

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2020
To harness light-matter interactions at the nano-/micro-scale, better tools for control must be developed. Here, it is shown that by applying an external electric and/or magnetic field, ablation of Si and glass under ultra-short (sub-1 ps) laser pulse ...

Gender, ethnic, and socioeconomic differences in access to catheter ablation therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
IntroductionFemale patients, patients from racial minorities, and patient with low socioeconomic status have been noted to have less access to catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation.MethodsThis is a cross-sectional, retrospective study using a large ...

Geographic variation in walking activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
This study examined whether there is geographic variation in field populations, focusing on the moving activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum. Results showed significant differences in moving activity among field populations but no correlation with latitude or meteorological factors.

Plug-in circuit board for the Raspberry-Pi microcomputer to reproduce multi-channel original electrocardiograms

open access: yesCurrent Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2019
Commercial simulators can only reproduce electrocardiograms (ECG) of the normal and diseased heart rhythm in a simplified waveform and with a low number of channels.

Cryothermal Energy Ablation Of Cardiac Arrhythmias 2005: State Of The Art [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
At the time of antiarrhythmic surgery, cryothermal energy application by a hand-held probe was used to complement dissections and resections and permanently abolish the arrhythmogenic substrate.

T2-based temperature monitoring in bone marrow for MR-guided focused ultrasound. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BackgroundCurrent clinical protocols for MR-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) treatment of osseous lesions, including painful bone metastases and osteoid osteomas, rely on measurement of the temperature change in adjacent muscle to estimate the ...

Moving in the Dark: Enlightening the Spatial Population Ecology of European Cave Salamanders

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
We assessed individual interactions, movement ecology and activity patterns of a subterranean population of Speleomantes strinatii, applying spatial capture–recapture modeling to a photographic dataset of 104 individuals. ABSTRACT Space use and movement are fundamental aspects of organisms' ecology, mirroring individual fitness, behavior, and life ...
