Optical Studies of the coexistence curve of the n-heptane+nitrobenzene mixture near its consolute point measured by an optical method [PDF]
Phys. Rev. B 75, 064203 (2007), 2006 We have measured the coexistence curve of the binary liquid mixture n-heptane+nitrobenzene near its consolute point using an optical method. In particular, the critical exponent beta describing the coexistence curve was measured for this system. Previous experimental values of beta for n-heptane+nitrobenzene were higher than the typical theoretically ...

A quantitative model for refilling of the sarcoplasmic reticulum during vascular smooth muscle asynchronous [Ca2+] oscillations [PDF]
Cell Calcium 42, 565-75 (2007), 2006 We have developed a quantitative model for the creation of cytoplasmic Ca2+ gradients near the inner surface of the plasma membrane (PM). In particular we simulated the refilling of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) via PM-SR junctions during asynchronous [Ca2+] oscillations in smooth muscle cells of the rabbit inferior vena cava.

Machine learning-based analysis of hyperspectral images for automated sepsis diagnosis [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Sepsis is a leading cause of mortality and critical illness worldwide. While robust biomarkers for early diagnosis are still missing, recent work indicates that hyperspectral imaging (HSI) has the potential to overcome this bottleneck by monitoring microcirculatory alterations.

Is pneumoperitoneum the terra ignota in ultrasonography?
Journal of Ultrasonography, 2015 In most cases, pneumoperitoneum is caused by gastrointestinal perforation, which usually requires surgical treatment. Many authors believe that ultrasound imaging of pneumoperitoneum is at least as effective as conventional radiography, or even that ...
