Vibrissa mechanical properties

Scholarpedia, 2015
The vibrissal (whisker) array of the rodent has been an important model for the study of active touch and tactile perception for over a century (Richardson 1909; Vincent 1912). During exploratory behaviors many rodents brush and tap their whiskers against surfaces to tactually extract object features, similar in some ways to how humans use their ...

Safety and Efficacy of Anticoagulation Therapy in Paediatric Patients With Solid Tumours or Lymphomas at Risk of Thrombocytopenia: A Retrospective Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with solid tumours or lymphomas have an increased risk of thromboembolism (TE) and thrombocytopenia. Evidence‐based strategies for anticoagulation therapy (ACT) for patients with thrombocytopenia are limited. We examined the impact of thrombocytopenia on ACT administration and bleeding incidence in children with solid ...

Psychological Safety Among Interprofessional Pediatric Oncology Teams in Germany: A Nationwide Survey

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Psychological safety (PS) is essential for teamwork, communication, and patient safety in complex healthcare environments. In pediatric oncology, interprofessional collaboration occurs under high emotional and organizational demands. Low PS may increase stress, burnout, and adverse events.

DELP Treatment on Vision and Retinal Microcirculation in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke: Report of Five Cases and Literature Review

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The delipid extracorporeal lipoprotein filter from plasma (DELP) treatment can effectively reduce blood lipid, increase blood flow, and improve neurological deficits in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). However, its effect on vision and retinal microcirculation in stroke patients has never been reported.

Calcification in free-living coralline algae is strongly influenced by morphology: Implications for susceptibility to ocean acidification

Scientific Reports, 2021
Rhodolith beds built by free-living coralline algae are important ecosystems for marine biodiversity and carbonate production. Yet, our mechanistic understanding regarding rhodolith physiology and its drivers is still limited.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Modeling of Liquid Hydrogen Tank Cooled with Para-Orthohydrogen Conversion

Hydrogen, 2023
With the accelerating development of liquid-hydrogen storage facilities, the problem of boil-off hydrogen losses becomes very important. A promising method to reduce these losses is to utilize the endothermic para-orthohydrogen conversion of vented ...
