Efficient parametric amplification in high and very high frequency piezoelectric nanoelectromechanical systems [PDF]
, 2010 Parametric amplification in nanomechanical structures is demonstrated by modulating a purely intrinsic mechanical parameter of the system—the stress—via piezoelectric electromechanical coupling.

Chimeric HIV-1 envelope glycoproteins with potent intrinsic granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) activity. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 HIV-1 acquisition can be prevented by broadly neutralizing antibodies (BrNAbs) that target the envelope glycoprotein complex (Env). An ideal vaccine should therefore be able to induce BrNAbs that can provide immunity over a prolonged period of time, but ...

When B12 therapy fails: two case reports of intravenous vitamin B12 resistance in pernicious anemia
Khyber Medical University JournalBACKGROUND: Pernicious anemia is an autoimmune disorder causing vitamin B12 deficiency resulting from impaired absorption caused by intrinsic factor absence. Positive parietal cell and intrinsic factor antibodies confirm the diagnosis.

Cobalamin Malabsorption due to a Dysfunctional Intrinsic Factor
Canadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1989 An 18-year-old French Canadian student presenting with a severe normocytic anemia, had undetectable serum cobalamin but normal gastric acidity and no evidence of generalized malabsorption. The gastric juice contained a normal quantity of intrinsic factor.

The pion form factor: Sudakov suppressions and intrinsic transverse momentum
, 1993 It is demonstrated that any attempt to calculate the perturbative QCD contribution to the pion form factor requires the inclusion of intrinsic transverse momentum besides Sudakov form factors.

The structure and predictive value of intrinsic capacity in a longitudinal study of ageing
BMJ Open, 2019 Objectives To assess the validity of the WHO concept of intrinsic capacity in a longitudinal study of ageing; to identify whether this overall measure disaggregated into biologically plausible and clinically useful subdomains; and to assess whether total

Self-Calibration Technique for 3-point Intrinsic Alignment Correlations in Weak Lensing Surveys
, 2011 The intrinsic alignment (IA) of galaxies has been shown to be a significant barrier to precision cosmic shear measurements. (Zhang, 2010, ApJ, 720, 1090) proposed a self-calibration technique for the power spectrum to calculate the induced gravitational ...

Accelerating Nearest Neighbor Search on Manycore Systems [PDF]
, 2011 We develop methods for accelerating metric similarity search that are effective on modern hardware. Our algorithms factor into easily parallelizable components, making them simple to deploy and efficient on multicore CPUs and GPUs.
