QCD thermodynamics with two flavors of Wilson quarks at N_t=6

, 1992
We report on a study of hadron thermodynamics with two flavors of Wilson quarks on 12^3x6 lattices. We have studied the crossover between the high and low temperature regimes for three values of the hopping parameter, kappa=0.16, 0.17, and 0.18.

The risk of acute liver injury among users of antibiotic medications: a comparison of case-only studies. [PDF]

, 2015
PURPOSE: The aims of this study were two-fold: (i) to investigate the effect of exposure to antibiotic agents on the risk of acute liver injury using a self-controlled case series and case-crossover study and (ii) to compare the results between the case ...

Short-term exposure to PM2.5 constituents and mortality risks for diabetes subtypes and related complications in eastern China

Environment International
Background: Although fine particulate matter (PM2.5) pollution is widely linked with diabetes-related morbidity and mortality, research on the short-term effects of its components across diabetes subtypes and complications is limited.

Unfolding and unzipping of single-stranded DNA by stretching

, 2004
We present a theoretical study of single-stranded DNA under stretching. Within the proposed framework, the effects of basepairing on the mechanical response of the molecule can be studied in combination with an arbitrary underlying model of chain ...

Relation between Air Pollution Exposure and Onset of Acute Coronary Syndrome in Tehran Heart Center Using a Case-Crossover Design

مجله اپیدمیولوژی ایران, 2007
Background & Objectives: Recent evidence suggests that long-term exposure to air pollution contributes to progression of atherosclerosis and the risk of cardiac morbidity and mortality; short-term exposure may also lead to thrombosis and acute ischemic ...

Short-term exposure to fine particulate matter and asthma exacerbation: a large population-based case-crossover study in Southern Thailand

Environmental Health
Background Asthma exacerbations remain a significant global health issue despite advances in management. Fine particulate matter (PM2.5, particles ≤ 2.5 μm in diameter) is a known trigger for asthma exacerbations. However, studies on the acute effects of

The Kauffman model on Small-World Topology

, 2006
We apply Kauffman's automata on small-world networks to study the crossover between the short-range and the infinite-range case. We perform accurate calculations on square lattices to obtain both critical exponents and fractal dimensions.

Non-Fickian Interdiffusion of Dynamically Asymmetric Species: A Molecular Dynamics Study [PDF]

, 2005
We use Molecular Dynamics combined with Dissipative Particle Dynamics to construct a model of a binary mixture where the two species differ only in their dynamic properties (friction coefficients).

Climate Change Projections for Stroke Incidence in Taiwan: Impact of 2 °C and 4 °C Global Warming Level

Journal of Epidemiology and Global Health
Objectives This study aimed to establish the exposure-lag-response effect between daily maximum temperature and stroke-related emergency department visits and to project heat-induced stroke impacts under global warming levels (GWL) of 2 °C and 4 °C ...
