Central Vein Stenosis in Patients with Central Vein Manipulation: A Single Center Experience [PDF]
Introduction: Central vein catheterization (CVC) is one of the main risk factors for central vein stenosis (CVS) occurrence in the hemodialysis population.

Discontinuous resistance change and domain wall scattering in patterned NiFe wires with a nanoconstriction [PDF]
A nonlinear current-voltage (I-V) characteristic was observed in patterned NiFe wires with a central "bow-tie" point contact constriction. By passing a dc current through the wire, a sharp resistance drop was obtained for current densities in the range ...

Distinct Phenotypes Induced by Three Degrees of Transverse Aortic Constriction in Mice
Transverse aortic constriction (TAC) is a well-established model of pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy and failure in mice. The degree of constriction “tightness” dictates the TAC severity and is determined by the gauge (G) of needle used ...

Liver Graft Failure after Plastic Stent Removal of an Anastomotic Biliary Stricture
A biliary anastomotic stricture developed 13 months after living donor liver transplantation in a 19-year-old male with congenital hepatic fibrosis. Endoscopic management with balloon dilation followed by the placement of a 7F plastic stent was performed

Steplike electric conduction in a classical two-dimensional electron system through a narrow constriction in a microchannel [PDF]
Using molecular dynamics simulation, we investigate transport properties of a classical two-dimensional electron system confined in a microchannel with a narrow constriction.

A Review of Factors to Consider for Permanent Cordon Establishment and Maintenance
Decisions made during the establishment and reworking of permanent cordon arms may have long-term consequences on vineyard health and longevity. This review aims to summarise several of the important considerations that must be taken into account during ...

Forced transport of deformable containers through narrow constrictions [PDF]
We study, numerically and analytically, the forced transport of deformable containers through a narrow constriction. Our central aim is to quantify the competition between the constriction geometry and the active forcing, regulating whether and at which ...

Membrane constriction and thinning by sequential ESCRT-III polymerization
The endosomal sorting complexes required for transport (ESCRTs) mediate diverse membrane remodeling events. These typically require ESCRT-III proteins to stabilize negatively curved membranes; however, recent work has indicated that certain ESCRT-IIIs ...

Magnetization dynamics due to field interplay in field free spin Hall nano-oscillators [PDF]
Spin Hall nano oscillators (SHNOs) have shown applications in unconventional computing schemes and broadband frequency generation in the presence of applied external magnetic field. However, under field-free conditions, the oscillation characteristics of SHNOs display a significant dependence on the effective field, which can be tuned by adjusting the ...

Spontaneous current constriction in threshold switching devices
Threshold switching devices are of increasing importance for a number of applications including solid-state memories and neuromorphic circuits. Their non-linear characteristics are thought to be associated with a spontaneous (occurring without an ...
