Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and disseminated intravascular coagulation syndrome
COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by the beta-coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 that in 2020 has spread worldwide. In most severe patients, the clinical picture begins with respiratory failure further deteriorating up to multiple organ failure.

Coral calcification in a changing World and the interactive dynamics of pH and DIC upregulation
Coral calcification is dependent on the mutualistic partnership between endosymbiotic zooxanthellae and the coral host. Here, using newly developed geochemical proxies (δ11B and B/Ca), we show that Porites corals from natural reef environments exhibit a ...

One-step deposition of nano-to-micron-scalable, high-quality digital image correlation patterns for high-strain in-situ multi-microscopy testing [PDF]
Digital Image Correlation (DIC) is of vital importance in the field of experimental mechanics, yet, producing suitable DIC patterns for demanding in-situ mechanical tests remains challenging, especially for ultra-fine patterns, despite the large number ...

Evaluation of in-situ shrinkage and expansion properties of polymer composite materials for adhesive anchor systems by a novel approach based on digital image correlation [PDF]
The curing reaction of thermosetting resins is associated with chemical shrinkage which is overlapped with thermal expansion as a result of the exothermal enthalpy. Final material properties of the polymer are determined by this critical process.

Measurement of Pressure-Expansion Behaviour Required in Infant Airway Stents Using Digital Image Correlation (DIC) in Rabbit Trachea [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Airway stents are used during treatment of tracheal deformities in infants. However, complications including post implantation stent migration occur [1], resulting from too low stent radial stiffness, which causes permanent stent collapse ...

CT and MRI presentation of nasopharyngeal tuberculosis (with a case report)
Nasopharyngeal tuberculosis is a rare extrapulmonary tuberculosis caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis invading the nasopharynx. Early clinical symptoms are atypical, making the condition easy to overlook and misdiagnosed. We retrospectively reviewed the
