Infective endocarditis following invasive dental procedures: IDEA case-crossover study [PDF]
Background Infective endocarditis is a heart infection with a first-year mortality rate of ≈ 30%. It has long been thought that infective endocarditis is causally associated with bloodstream seeding with oral bacteria in ≈ 40–45% of cases.

Non-monotonous crossover between capillary condensation and interface localisation/delocalisation transition in binary polymer blends [PDF]
Within self-consistent field theory we study the phase behaviour of a symmetric binary AB polymer blend confined into a thin film. The film surfaces interact with the monomers via short range potentials.
