Is thyroid nodule location associated with malignancy risk? [PDF]
, 2019 PURPOSE: Nodules located in the upper pole of the thyroid may carry a greater risk for malignancy than those in the lower pole. We conducted a study to analyze the risk of malignancy of nodules depending on location.

The characteristics of collagen‐induced rheumatoid arthritis in macaques and the changes of heart
Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.The disease progression in CIA macaques was categorized into three stages: IIR (days 14–34): The indicators related to rheumatoid arthritis and the levels of immunoglobulin were all elevated. There was a small amount of joint effusion, edema and mild synovial hyperplasia. No joint swelling was observed by naked eye.

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.Objective Cerebral ischemic stroke causes neuronal oxygen/energy deprivation, disrupting mitochondrial function including reduced membrane potential and bioenergetics, exacerbating neuronal injury. Mitochondrial defects are, therefore, a central neuropathological node and potential therapeutic target.

Influence of Wall Deformation Structure on the Liquid Film Flow Behavior Under Turbulent Conditions
Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT To explore the influence of typical wall deformation structure in the scrubbing‐cooling tube on the liquid film, this paper studied the liquid film flow behavior on the riblet walls with representative riblet radii and compared them with the flat wall. Under different liquid film Reynolds numbers (Rel = 8.3 × 103 ~ 3.14 × 104), the liquid film
