An Electrically Conducting Water‐based Reversible Adhesive

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
A water‐based reversible glue is demonstrated. The glue has electrical properties similar to other conducting adhesives but can detach after an alkaline wash. Metal fillers are added to an aqueous mixture of polymer nanoparticles synthesized by emulsion polymerization. The nanoparticles are stabilized by poly(acrylic acid) chains bonded to them. The pH‐

Preoperative Gemcitabine/Nab‐Paclitaxel With Concurrent Radiation Therapy for Borderline Resectable Pancreatic Cancer: A Comparative Analysis With Preoperative Chemoradiation Therapy Using Gemcitabine Alone

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Although NCCN guidelines recommend preoperative therapy for borderline resectable pancreatic cancer (BR‐PC), it is still unclear which regimen is better. The study objective was to elucidate the prognostic significance of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NACRT) with gemcitabine/nab‐paclitaxel (GnP‐RT) compared to gemcitabine alone ...

Boundary Layer Ducting of Low-elevation GNSS Ocean Reflected Signals

open access: yes, 2015
GNSS reflected signals are able to derive parameters as sea surface roughness, winds, waves,and heights from the spectral measurements. Coming satellite missions as, CYGNSS andGEROS, are focusing on GNSS ocean reflected measurements. Thus, simulation studies, highlighting the assumptions for the data retrievals and the precision and the accuracy, are ...

Emergency Cholecystectomy in Patients Classified as High Risk According to the Tokyo Guidelines 2018: A Real‐World Analysis

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Emergency cholecystectomy was evaluated in patients with acute cholecystitis classified as non‐recommended for surgery by the Tokyo Guidelines 2018. Major postoperative complications, rather than mortality, better reflected operative risk. Physiological instability, particularly ASA‐PS ≥ 3 and shock status, identified high‐risk patients, suggesting ...
