The degree of rational cuspidal curves
Let C be an irreducible complex plane curve. By a \textit{cusp} we mean not only a simple cusp \(y^ 2=x^ 3\) but also any unibranched singular point. We say that C is cuspidal if C has only cusps as its singular points. It turns out that cuspidal curves are rather special. In this article we consider the rational case. For examples of rational cuspidal

This study investigated changes in pulmonary artery hemodynamics using a Flowire catheter and evaluated the accuracy of Doppler echocardiography in dogs with acute pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE). Ten healthy beagles were anesthetized, and acute pulmonary hypertension (PH) was induced by injecting 300‐μm dextran microspheres.

Tuning Cellular Perception in Pluripotent Stem Cells through Topography, Stiffness, and Patterning
Micro‐ and nanotopographical cues, substrate stiffness, and mechanical patterning synergistically direct pluripotent stem cell fate and function by tuning cellular perception at the biointerface. Pluripotent stem cells (PSCs), comprised of embryonic stem cells and induced PSCs, hold tremendous therapeutic potential.

Morphometric analysis of canine in gender determination: Revisited in India
Background and Aim: Teeth are excellent material for anthropological, genetic and odontologic investigations in both living and dead population. Canines are the ideal teeth for identification of sex, due to its sexual dimorphism and durability in the ...

Impact of Interfacial Viscosity on the Robustness of Phospholipid‐Decorated Fluid Cell Scaffolds
Viscosity‐tunable fluid scaffolds are developed by decorating a perfluorocarbon interface with phospholipid membranes (IPLMs) of varying unsaturated lipid contents. A solid‐like IPLM is cell‐adhesive but brittle, whereas the least viscous IPLM does not allow cell adhesion. Moderately viscous IPLMs serve as highly adaptive cellular scaffolds.

Biocompatibility of the Polymer Poly(Butylene Adipate‐Co‐Terephthalate) in the Cornea of Rabbits
The biocompatibility of the PBAT in the rabbit cornea was evaluated through clinical assessment and histopathological analysis using hematoxylin and eosin, picrosirius red, and Masson’s trichrome staining. ABSTRACT In a novel approach to corneal biomaterials, this study evaluated the biocompatibility of heat‐pressed poly(butylene adipate‐co ...
