Long-term low-voltage impedance measurements in subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillators. [PDF]
Background: High-voltage impedance (HVI), measured during subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD) implantation via defibrillation testing or a synchronized shock, is associated with defibrillation efficacy.

A reference test for HVI strength measurements. Implications for HVI testing
Fibrograms were obtained for cotton beards used in HVI testing after conditioning the beards in two different relative humidity environments. The differences in optical mass measurements for the fibrograms were negligibly small and close to the resolution of the optical system of the instrument.

Genome-wide association studies of bundle and single fiber length traits reveal the genetic basis of within-sample variation in upland cotton fiber length. [PDF]
Within-sample variation in cotton fiber length is a major factor influencing the production and quality of yarns. The textile industry has been searching for approaches of improving the long fiber fraction and minimizing the short fiber fraction within a

Clinical outcomes of elderly patients treated with halo vest immobilization. [PDF]
Introduction: There is a lack of consensus on the efficacy and safety of halo vest immobilization (HVI) in elderly patients. The objective of this study was to evaluate HVI’s impact on outcomes in patients 60 years or older with cervical spine fractures.
