Impact of flexible noise control (FNC) image processing parameters on portable chest radiography

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract There is a lack of understanding in the performance of flexible noise control (FNC) processing, which is used in digital radiography on a scanner vendor and has four parameters each involving multiple options. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of FNC on portable chest imaging. An anthropomorphic chest phantom was imaged using

A Simplified Balanced ‘Balanced Scorecard’

open access: yesEuropean Accounting and Management Review, 2019
This paper proposes a performance measurement system (PMS) based on the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) that requires only 25 common key performance indictors (KPIs), which are characterized by their easiness to collect, in turn making the PMS an affordable instrument for all types of organizations, regardless of their resource availability.

TRPM4 contributes to cell death in prostate cancer tumor spheroids, and to extravasation and metastasis in a zebrafish xenograft model system

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Transient receptor potential melastatin‐4 (TRPM4) is overexpressed in prostate cancer (PCa). Knockout of TRPM4 resulted in reduced PCa tumor spheroid size and decreased PCa tumor spheroid outgrowth. In addition, lack of TRPM4 increased cell death in PCa tumor spheroids.

Confronting the United Nations’ Pro-growth Agenda

open access: yesThe Journal of Population and Sustainability
In this article, we enjoin the United Nations (UN) to forge a path out of our plight of multiple environmental and social crises. With other analysts, we identify ‘overshoot’ – the state in which humanity has substantially outpaced Earth’s capacity to ...

Balanced and functionally balanced $P$-groups [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
In relation to Itzkowitz's problem, we show that a $\mathfrak c$-bounded $P$-group is balanced if and only if it is functionally balanced. We prove that for an arbitrary $P$-group, being functionally balanced is equivalent to being strongly functionally balanced.

Etoposide‐induced cancer cell death: roles of mitochondrial VDAC1 and calpain, and resistance mechanisms

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The complex mode of action of the topoisomerase II inhibitor etoposide in triggering apoptosis involves several mechanisms: overexpression of the mitochondrial protein VDAC1, leading to its oligomerization and formation of a large channel that mediates the release of pro‐apoptotic protein; and overexpression of the apoptosis regulators p53, Bax, and ...

Safety of the HyperSound® Audio System in subjects with normal hearing

open access: yesAudiology Research, 2015
The objective of the study was to assess the safety of the HyperSound® Audio System (HSS), a novel audio system using ultrasound technology, in normal hearing subjects under normal use conditions; we considered preexposure and post-exposure test design ...

Matchings in balanced hypergraphs [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2009
We give a new proof of K\"onig's theorem and generalize the Gallai-Edmonds decomposition to balanced hypergraphs in two different ways. Based on our decompositions we give two new characterizations of balanced hypergraphs and show some properties of matchings and vertex cover in balanced hypergraphs.

Molecular and functional profiling unravels targetable vulnerabilities in colorectal cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We used whole exome and RNA‐sequencing to profile divergent genomic and transcriptomic landscapes of microsatellite stable (MSS) and microsatellite instable (MSI) colorectal cancer. Alterations were classified using a computational score for integrative cancer variant annotation and prioritization.

Balanced Permutation Codes [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
Motivated by charge balancing constraints for rank modulation schemes, we introduce the notion of balanced permutations and derive the capacity of balanced permutation codes. We also describe simple interleaving methods for permutation code constructions and show that they approach ...
