Interaction of Stress, Lead Burden, and Age on Cognition in Older Men: The VA Normative Aging Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
BACKGROUND. Low-level exposure to lead and to chronic stress may independently influence cognition. However, the modifying potential of psychosocial stress on the neurotoxicity of lead and their combined relationship to aging-associated decline have not ...

Genetics of the patella [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Human Genetics, 2019
We review genetic diseases with identified molecular bases that include abnormal, reduced (hypoplasia), or absent (aplasia) patellae as a significant aspect of the phenotype. The known causal genes can be broadly organized according to three major developmental and cellular processes, although some genes may act in more than one of these: limb ...

Structural Control of Photoconductivity in a Flexible Titanium‐Organic Framework

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The concept of flexibility is extended to titanium frameworks and use it to gain control over charge transport. MUV‐35 is a flexible doubly interpenetrated framework that can shrink spontaneously its volume by ≈40% to afford a photoconductive, porous state that is thermodynamically favored by non‐covalent interactions. Abstract The soft nature of Metal‐

A double patella-like condition secondary to synovial osteochondromatosis

open access: yesSports Medicine, Arthroscopy, Rehabilitation, Therapy & Technology, 2012
To our knowledge, this is the first case of synovial osteochondromatosis in a patient presenting with a double patella-like condition. The true duplication of the patella, which is called double patella, is extremely rare.

Localization of magnetic sources underground by a data adaptive tomographic scanner

open access: yes, 2005
A tomography method is proposed to image magnetic anomaly sources buried below a non-flat ground surface, by developing the expression of the total power associated with a measured magnetic field.

From Mechanoelectric Conversion to Tissue Regeneration: Translational Progress in Piezoelectric Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review highlights recent progress in piezoelectric materials for regenerative medicine, emphasizing their ability to convert mechanical stimuli into bioelectric signals that promote tissue repair. Key discussions cover the intrinsic piezoelectric properties of biological tissues, co‐stimulation cellular mechanisms for tissue regeneration, and ...

Biological tribological properties between polyetheretherketone and patella cartilage

open access: yesCailiao gongcheng, 2019
Reciprocating sliding friction and wear tests were carried out on polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and natural patella cartilage using the pin-on-disk configuration at different normal loads, slipping velocity and friction pairs under 25% fetal bovine serum ...

Imaging polar and dipolar sources of geophysical anomalies by probability tomography. Part II: Application to the Vesuvius volcanic area

open access: yes, 2006
In the previous part I, we have developed the generalized theory of the probability tomography method to image polar and dipolar sources of a vector or scalar geophysical anomaly field.
