Towards a fully consistent Milky Way disc model: Part 1 The local model based on kinematic and photometric data

, 2009
We present a fully consistent evolutionary disc model of the solar cylinder. The model is based on a sequence of stellar sub-populations described by the star formation history (SFR) and the dynamical heating law (given by the age-velocity dispersion ...

Exploratory Laparotomy After Routine Cardiac Surgery: Results From 17,000 Patients

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Exploratory laparotomy is rare after open‐heart surgery, and it was performed for gastrointestinal complications that occurred in the context of other severe postoperative complications. Several factors were associated with the need for exlap, including increasing age, pre‐existing renal and vascular disease, and pre‐ and post‐operative shock. ABSTRACT

Compactification of a Drinfeld Period Domain over a Finite Field [PDF]

, 2010
We study a certain compactification of the Drinfeld period domain over a finite field which arises naturally in the context of Drinfeld moduli spaces. Its boundary is a disjoint union of period domains of smaller rank, but these are glued together in a ...

Russian wheat aphid: a model for genomic plasticity and a challenge to breeders

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Invasive foundress finds suitable habitat and reproduces through pathogenesis. Wingless females produce life offspring quickly, which leads to high population densities. High population densities result in competition, which may induce epigenetic changes and wing development for dispersal.

Complex Interactions between Fungal Avirulence Genes and Their Corresponding Plant Resistance Genes and Consequences for Disease Resistance Management

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
During infection, pathogens secrete an arsenal of molecules, collectively called effectors, key elements of pathogenesis which modulate innate immunity of the plant and facilitate infection.

COPIS: A robust and versatile robotic imaging system for the 3D digitization of natural history specimens with photogrammetry

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecologists and evolutionary biologists are increasingly turning to 3D models to use in scientific research. Natural history museums are one of the primary sources for specimens used as 3D models, and efforts are underway to digitize their collections using methods like photogrammetry.

Association between metabolic syndrome, macular structures and retinal vascular calibres in the Northern Finland Birth Cohort Eye Study

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose We aimed to evaluate the association of metabolic syndrome (MetS) with macular thickness and retinal vascular calibres in the population‐based cohort (Northern Finland Birth Cohort). Methods The population of 2242 individuals was divided into MetS (n = 344) and control groups (n = 1898).
