Prognostic Value of the Persistence or Change in Pericardial Effusion Status on Serial Echocardiograms in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: Pericardial effusion in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is an indicator of right heart failure and a marker of poor prognosis; its significance on serial transthoracic echocardiograms (TTE) is not clear.

PAT-CNN: Automatic Segmentation and Quantification of Pericardial Adipose Tissue from T2-Weighted Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Images [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Background: Increased pericardial adipose tissue (PAT) is associated with many types of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Although cardiac magnetic resonance images (CMRI) are often acquired in patients with CVD, there are currently no tools to automatically identify and quantify PAT from CMRI.

Frequency Dependent Specific Heat from Thermal Effusion in Spherical Geometry [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 81, 061505, 2010, 2008
We present a novel method of measuring the frequency dependent specific heat at the glass transition applied to 5-polyphenyl-4-ether. The method employs thermal waves effusing radially out from the surface of a spherical thermistor that acts as both a heat generator and thermometer.

Incorporating Clinical Examination Skills Into a Preclinical Anatomy Course: A Method for Facilitating Engagement and Interest

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anatomy instruction is enhanced when students are engaged and interested in course material, and the relevance of the subject matter to their academic success and professional careers is emphasized. We developed a learning activity for a pre‐clinical anatomy course using the clinical skills of inspection and palpation of a cadaver donor to ...

An open‐label, single‐arm, multicenter, phase II trial of bireociclib as monotherapy for heavily pretreated HR‐positive, HER2‐negative advanced breast cancer patients: BRIGHT‐1 trial

open access: yesCancer Communications, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bireociclib (XZP‐3287) is a novel selective cyclin‐dependent kinase 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor, with a favorable safety profile demonstrated in preclinical and phase I studies. BRIGHT‐1 aimed to further explore the efficacy and safety of bireociclib monotherapy in patients with locally advanced, recurrent or metastatic, hormone ...

$^{23}$Ne Production at SARAF-I [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In this article, we present a measurement of flow rate, yield and effusion time of a $^{23}$Ne production and transport system. We used an accelerator-driven Li(d,n) neutron source to produce neutrons up to 20 MeV. The radioactive atoms were produced by a $^{23}$Na(n,p) reaction at a NaCl target.
