Evaluation of radiomics as a predictor of efficacy and the tumor immune microenvironment in anti-PD-1 mAb treated recurrent/metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck patients. [PDF]
Head NeckAbstract Background We retrospectively evaluated radiomics as a predictor of the tumor microenvironment (TME) and efficacy with anti‐PD‐1 mAb (IO) in R/M HNSCC. Methods Radiomic feature extraction was performed on pre‐treatment CT scans segmented using 3D slicer v4.10.2 and key features were selected using LASSO regularization method to build ...

High-latitude observations of impulse-driven ULF pulsations in the ionosphere and on the ground [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2003 We report the simultaneous observation of 1.6–1.7 mHz pulsations in the ionospheric F-region with the CUTLASS bistatic HF radar and an HF Doppler sounder, on the ground with the IMAGE and SAMNET magnetometer arrays, and in the upstream solar wind.

Paclitaxel-Coated Balloons for Femoropopliteal Artery Disease Treatment in French Patients: A Longitudinal Observational Study. [PDF]
Catheter Cardiovasc IntervABSTRACT Background Clinical studies have demonstrated the safety and effectiveness of drug‐coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty for femoropopliteal revascularization. Long‐term studies in routine practice are limited. Aims The aim of this study was to assess long‐term outcomes after DCB angioplasty for femoropopliteal peripheral artery disease in a real ...

Revised time-of-flight calculations for high-latitude geomagnetic pulsations using a realistic magnetospheric magnetic field model [PDF]
, 2005 We present a simple time-of-flight analysis of Alfvén pulsations standing on closed terrestrial magnetic field lines. The technique employed in this study in order to calculate the characteristic period of such oscillations builds upon earlier time-of ...

A numerical model to investigate the polarisation azimuth of ULF waves through an ionosphere with oblique magnetic fields [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2005 A one dimensional, computational model for the propagation of ultra low frequency (ULF; 1-100 mHz) wave fields from the Earth's magnetosphere through the ionosphere, atmosphere and into the ground is presented.
