The size, morphology and distribution of MnS inclusions in the sulfur bearing free-cutting steel are the key factors to determine the performance of the free-cutting steel. It is thus important to accurately characterize and control the morphology of the

TOR1A is the most common inherited form of dystonia with still unclear pathophysiology and reduced penetrance of 30–40%. ∆ETorA rats mimic the TOR1A disease by expression of the human TOR1A mutation without presenting a dystonic phenotype.

High and Low Salt Intake during Pregnancy: Impact on Cardiac and Renal Structure in Newborns. [PDF]
INTRODUCTION:Previous studies from our laboratory demonstrated that dietary salt overload and salt restriction during pregnancy were associated with cardiac and renal structural and/or functional alterations in adult offspring.

On the Applicability of Stereological Methods for the Modelling of a Local Plastic Deformation in Grained Structure: Mathematical Principles [PDF]
Analysis of systems and structures from their cross-sectional images finds applications in many branches. Therefore, the question of content, quantity, and accuracy of information obtained from various techniques based on cross-sectional views of structures is particularly important. Application of conventional techniques for two-dimensional imaging on

STEREOLOGICAL ESTIMATION OF SURFACE AREA FROM DIGITAL IMAGES
A sampling design of local stereology is combined with a method from digital stereology to yield a novel estimator of surface area based on counts of configurations observed in a digitization of an isotropic 2- dimensional slice with thickness s.

Simulated blast overpressure induces specific astrocyte injury in an ex vivo brain slice model. [PDF]
Exposure to explosive blasts can produce functional debilitation in the absence of brain pathology detectable at the scale of current diagnostic imaging.

ESTIMATION OF MINKOWSKI TENSORS FROM DIGITAL GREY-SCALE IMAGES
It was shown in Svane (2014b) that local algorithms based on grey-scale images sometimes lead to asymptotically unbiased estimators for surface area and integrated mean curvature. This paper extends the results to estimators for Minkowski tensors.

Background The granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) (or CSF-2) is involved in myeloid cell growth and differentiation, and, possibly, a major mediator of inflammation in body tissues. The role of GM-CSF in the activation of microglia
