Integrability and maximally helicity violating diagrams in n=4 supersymmetric yang-mills theory. [PDF]
We apply maximally helicity violating (MHV) diagrams to the derivation of the one-loop dilatation operator of N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in the SO(6) sector.

Mitochondrial Creatine Kinase Attenuates Pathologic Remodeling in Heart Failure [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Abnormalities in cardiac energy metabolism occur in heart failure (HF) and contribute to contractile dysfunction, but their role, if any, in HF-related pathologic remodeling is much less established.

Cerebral artery dilatation maintains cerebral oxygenation at extreme altitude and in acute hypoxia : an ultrasound and MRI study [PDF]
Transcranial Doppler is a widely used noninvasive technique for assessing cerebral artery blood flow. All previous high altitude studies assessing cerebral blood flow (CBF) in the field that have used Doppler to measure arterial blood velocity have ...

Videofluoroscopy-guided balloon dilatation for treatment of severe pharyngeal dysphagia [PDF]
Balloon dilatation is a widely accepted technique in the management of esophageal and other types of gastrointestinal strictures, but it is rarely used for the treatment of pharyngeal dysphagia. Therefore, the aim of our prospective study was to evaluate

Ultrasound scanning in fetal renal pelvis dilatation: not only hydronephrosis [PDF]
Pelvic dilatation is the alteration of the urinary tractmost frequently detected by maternal-fetalultra-sound. Hydronephrosis is not a diagnosis; it is an imagefinding. The diagnosis is the cause that produces it.
