Coupled circumferential and axial tension driven by actin and myosin influences in vivo axon diameter [PDF]
It has long been known that neuronal axons are contractile. They actively maintain rest tension along the longitudinal direction both in vitro and in vivo. Here we show evidence that embryonic drosophila axons also actively maintain contractility/tension

Can Parameters Other than Minimal Axial Diameter in MRI and PET/CT Further Improve Diagnostic Accuracy for Equivocal Retropharyngeal Lymph Nodes in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma? [PDF]
Purpose Minimal axial diameter (MIAD) in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was recognized as the most useful parameter in diagnosing lateral retropharyngeal lymph (LRPL) nodes in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).

Axial pullout strength comparison of different screw designs: fenestrated screw, dual outer diameter screw and standard pedicle screw [PDF]
BackgroundThe pullout strength of pedicle screws is influenced by many factors, including diameter of the screws, implant design, and augmentation with bone cement such as PMMA.

The Role of Back Optic Zone Diameter in Myopia Control with Orthokeratology Lenses
We compared the efficacy of controlling the annual increase in axial length (AL) in myopic Caucasian children based on two parameters: the back optic zone diameter (BOZD) of the orthokeratology (OK) lens and plus power ring diameter (PPRD) or mid ...

On Some Problem for a Simplex and a Cube in Rⁿ
Let S be a nondegenerate simplex in Rⁿ. Denote by α(S) the minimal σ > 0 such that the unit cube Qn:= [0, 1]ⁿ is contained in a translate of σS. In the case α(S) ≠ 1 the translate of α(S)S containing Qn is a homothetic copy of S with the homothety ...
