Twist, tilt, and orientational order at the nematic to twist-bend nematic phase transition of 1 '',9 ''-bis(4-cyanobiphenyl-4 '-yl) nonane: A dielectric, H-2 NMR, and calorimetric study [PDF]
The nature of the nematic-nematic phase transition in the liquid crystal dimer 1 '',9 ''-bis(4-cyanobiphenyl-4'-yl) nonane (CB9CB) has been investigated using techniques of calorimetry, dynamic dielectric response measurements, and H-2 NMR spectroscopy ...

Joint Image Reconstruction and Motion Estimation for Spatiotemporal Imaging [PDF]
International audienceWe propose a variational model for joint image reconstruction and motion estimation applicable to spatiotemporal imaging. This model consists of two parts, one that conducts image reconstruction in a static setting and another ...

Comparison of Calculated with Measured Oxygen Consumption in Children Undergoing Cardiac Catheterization [PDF]
Our objective was to compare calculated (LaFarge) with measured oxygen consumption (VO2) using the AS/3 TM Compact Airway Module M-CAiOVX (Datex-Ohmeda, Helsinki, Finland; AS/3 TM) in children without cardiac shunts in a prospective, observational study.

Shelling the Voronoi interface of protein-protein complexes predicts residue activity and conservation [PDF]
The accurate description of protein-protein interfaces remains a challenging task. Traditional criteria, based on atomic contacts or changes in solvent accessibility, tend to over or underpredict the interface itself and cannot discriminate active from ...

Characteristics of Early Antibody Mediated Rejection in Antibody Incompatible Living Donor Kidney Transplantation [PDF]
Antibody incompatible transplantation (AIT) may be an only option for highly sensitized patients. Severe form of early antibody mediated rejection (AMR) adversely affects graft survival after AIT. The aim of this study was to identify individuals at risk

Evolution of viral host recognition through multiple pathways [PDF]
Most viruses are specialists and have a narrow host range, infecting only a single species or host strain. However, many of the viruses currently responsible for causing emerging infectious diseases are generalists and able to infect a wider host range.
