Associations of dry skin, skin care habits, well‐being, sleep quality and itch in nursing home residents: Results of a multicentre, observational, cross‐sectional study

open access: yesNursing Open, 2019
Aim Dry skin is one of the most frequent cutaneous problems in aged long‐term care residents. Although it is clinically relevant, the impact on quality of life is unclear.

Cellular glutathione content in the organ of Corti and its role during ototoxicity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Glutathione (GSH) is the major scavenger of reactive oxygen species (ROS) inside cells. We used live confocal imaging in order to clarify the role of GSH in the biology of the organ of Corti, the sensory epithelium of the cochlea, before, during and ...

From hair in India to hair India

open access: yesInternational Journal of Trichology, 2017
In all cultures, human hair and hairdo have been a powerful metaphor. Tracing back the importance and significance of human hair to the dawn of civilization on the Indian subcontinent, we find that all the Vedic gods are depicted as having uncut hair in mythological stories as well as in legendary pictures.

Open‐source deep‐learning models for segmentation of normal structures for prostatic and gynecological high‐dose‐rate brachytherapy: Comparison of architectures

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The use of deep learning‐based auto‐contouring algorithms in various treatment planning services is increasingly common. There is a notable deficit of commercially or publicly available models trained on large or diverse datasets containing high‐dose‐rate (HDR) brachytherapy treatment scans, leading to poor performance on images ...

Quantum Hair on Black Holes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
A black hole may carry quantum numbers that are {\it not} associated with massless gauge fields, contrary to the spirit of the ``no-hair'' theorems. We describe in detail two different types of black hole hair that decay exponentially at long range.

Classifications of Patterned Hair Loss: A Review

open access: yesJournal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery, 2016
Patterned hair loss is the most common cause of hair loss seen in both the sexes after puberty. Numerous classification systems have been proposed by various researchers for grading purposes. These systems vary from the simpler systems based on recession

Quantitative quality control of 3D water tank using image analysis

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and objective Accurate beam data acquisition using three‐dimensional (3D) water tanks is essential for beam commissioning and quality control (QC) in clinical radiation therapy. This study introduces a novel method for quantitative QC of the system, utilizing MV images and webcam videos.

Effect of voltage dynamics on response properties in a model of sensory hair cell [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2012
Sensory hair cells in auditory and vestibular organs rely on active mechanisms to achieve high sensitivity and frequency selectivity. Recent experimental studies have documented self-sustained oscillations in hair cells of lower vertebrates on two distinct levels. First, the hair bundle can undergo spontaneous mechanical oscillations.

Amplitude death of coupled hair bundles with stochastic channel noise [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Hair cells conduct auditory transduction in vertebrates. In lower vertebrates such as frogs and turtles, due to the active mechanism in hair cells, hair bundles(stereocilia) can be spontaneously oscillating or quiescent. Recently, the amplitude death phenomenon has been proposed [K.-H. Ahn, J. R. Soc.

Time-Dependent Scalar Fields in Modified Gravities in a Stationary Spacetime [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Most no-hair theorems involve the assumption that the scalar field is independent of time. Recently in [Phys. Rev. D90 (2014) 041501(R)] the existence of time-dependent scalar hair outside a stationary black hole in general relativity was ruled out.
