Glucose and glycogen levels in piglets that differ in birth weight and vitality [PDF]
, 2019 In the pig, intrauterine crowding can greatly affect postnatal characteristics, among which birth weight and locomotion. In a previous study, we discovered that piglets with a low birth weight/low vitality (L piglets) have a reduced motor performance ...

Evaluation of the effect of metal stents on dose perturbation in the carbon beam irradiation field
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Propose Carbon ion therapy is indicated for cases in which stents have been inserted, such as bile ducts, but the effect of metal stents on carbon ion therapy is unclear. In this study, the dose perturbation of carbon ion therapy caused by metallic bile duct stents was evaluated by dosimetry. Materials and methods Five different types of metal

Birth-time distributions of weighted polytopes in STIT tessellations [PDF]
arXiv, 2012 The lower-dimensional maximal polytopes associated with an iteration stable (STIT) tessellation in $\RR^d$ are considered. They arise in the spatio-temporal construction process of such a tessellation as intersections of $(d-1)$-dimensional maximal polytopes. A precise description of the joint distribution of their birth-times is obtained. This in turn

Newborn skin reflection: Proof of concept for a new approach for predicting gestational age at birth. A cross-sectional study [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 Current methods to assess the gestational age during prenatal care or at birth are a global challenge. Disadvantages, such as low accessibility, high costs, and imprecision of clinical tests and ultrasonography measurements, may compromise health decisions at birth, based on the gestational age. Newborns organs and tissues can indirectly indicate their
