Plasmons in Sodium under Pressure: Increasing Departure from Nearly-Free-Electron Behavior [PDF]

, 2011
We have measured plasmon energies in Na under high pressure up to 43 GPa using inelastic x-ray scattering (IXS). The momentum-resolved results show clear deviations, growing with increasing pressure, from the predictions for a nearly-free electron metal.

Pixel-tracking derived strain using the GlasgowHeart Method. [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Estimation of strain parameters from cine acquisitions, such as balanced steady state free precession (b-SSFP) is advantageous, as it would obviate the need for acquisition of additional strain sequences reducing scanning time and making ...

Subconjuctival Loa loa with Calabar Swelling

Journal of Korean Medical Science, 2008
Loa loa is unique among the human filariae in that adult worms are occasionally visible during subconjunctival migration. A 29-yr-old African female student, living in Korea for the past 5 yr without ever visiting her home country, presented with acute eyelid swelling and a sensation of motion on the left eyeball.

Impact of repeated mass ivermectin administration using a community directed approach on L. loa infection in Chrysops silacea of the rain forest and forest savanna of Cameroon

Parasite Epidemiology and Control
Background: Loiasis is an endemic filarial infection in the rainforest zone of West and Central Africa. Repeated annual community-directed treatment with ivermectin (CDTI) delivered for several years to control onchocerciasis has been shown to reduce the

Probing warm dense matter using femtosecond X-ray absorption spectroscopy with a laser-produced betatron source

Nature Communications, 2018
Understanding the ultrafast dynamics of materials under extreme conditions is challenging. Here the authors use a femtosecond betatron X-ray source to investigate the solid to dense plasma phase transition in copper using XAS with unprecedented time ...

Infeção por Loa loa

Revista Portuguesa de Doenças Infecciosas (RPDI), 2015
O nemátodo Loa loa, presente em África, é uma causa rara de eosinofilia nos países desenvolvidos, mas de importância crescente devido ao mundo globalizado em que vivemos. Os autores descrevem o caso de um doente do sexo masculino, 57 anos, sem medicação habitual, que é referenciado à consulta de Infeciologia por eosinofilia persistente.
