Coincident Objects and The Grounding Problem [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Philosophical Investigations, 2022
Pluralists believe in the occurrence of numerically distinct spatiotemporally coincident objects. They argue that there are coincident objects that share all physical and spatiotemporal properties and relations; nevertheless, they differ in terms of ...

Optical signatures of radiofrequency ablation in biological tissues

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Accurate monitoring of treatment is crucial in minimally-invasive radiofrequency ablation in oncology and cardiovascular disease. We investigated alterations in optical properties of ex-vivo bovine tissues of the liver, heart, muscle, and brain ...

The influence of electrocardiogram-gated computed tomography reconstruction into 8 or 10 cardiac phases on cardiac-pulsatility-induced motion quantification of stent grafts in the aorta

open access: yesJVS - Vascular Science, 2023
Objective: The goal of this study was to determine to what extent aortic stent graft motion quantification is comparable between electrocardiogram (ECG)-gated computed tomography (CT) scans with reconstructions into 8 and 10 cardiac phases on CT scanners

Machine learning to estimate the local quality of protein crystal structures

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Low-resolution electron density maps can pose a major obstacle in the determination and use of protein structures. Herein, we describe a novel method, called quality assessment based on an electron density map (QAEmap), which evaluates local protein ...

Bimekizumab, a Novel Humanized IgG1 Antibody That Neutralizes Both IL-17A and IL-17F

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Interleukin (IL)-17A is a key driver of inflammation and the principal target of anti-IL-17 therapeutic monoclonal antibodies. IL-17A, and its structurally similar family member IL-17F, have been shown to be functionally dysregulated in certain human ...
