Fullerene van der waals Oligomers as electron traps [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Density functional theory calculations indicate that van der Waals fullerene dimers and larger oligomers can form interstitial electron traps in which the electrons are even more strongly bound than in isolated fullerene radical anions.

Sirolimus for Extracranial Arteriovenous Malformations: A Scoping Review of the Evidence in Syndromic and Non‐Syndromic Cases

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare, high‐flow, vascular anomalies that can occur either sporadically or as part of a genetic syndrome. AVMs can progress with serious morbidity and even mortality if left unchecked. Sirolimus is an mTOR inhibitor that is effective in low‐flow vascular malformations; however, its role in AVMs is unclear.

Effect of physiological parameters on glucose microcirculation compartmental model in glucose monitoring

open access: yesBiotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2018
A glucose microcirculation compartmental model (GMCM) for predicting blood glucose concentrations from the reference interstitial fluid (ISF) glucose concentrations was proposed before. It was used to compensate the delay error in ISF in order to improve

Update in Diagnosis of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis and Interstitial Lung Abnormality

open access: yes대한영상의학회지, 2021
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), based on the 2018 international clinical practice guidelines, can be diagnosed with a usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern on high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) and compatible clinical findings.

Revisiting the thermodynamics of hardening plasticity for unsaturated soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A thermodynamically consistent extension of the constitutive equations of saturated soils to unsaturated conditions is often worked out through the use a unique 'effective' interstitial pressure, accounting equivalently for the pressures of the ...

Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 increases metastatic potential and aggressiveness in colorectal cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...
