Emergence of Plaque Erosion as an Important Clinical Entity [PDF]
Most physicians believe that acute coronary syndromes (ACS) are due to coronary artery thrombosis resulting from plaque rupture of a metabolically active inflamed lesion characterized by a thin fibrous cap (thin-cap fibroatheroma [TCFA]), overlying a large necrotic core containing ...

The Mechanics of Landslide Mobility with Erosion [PDF]
Erosion, as a key control of landslide dynamics, significantly increases the destructive power by rapidly amplifying its volume, mobility and impact energy. Mobility is directly linked to the threat posed by an erosive landslide. No clear-cut mechanical condition has been presented so far for when, how and how much energy the erosive landslide gains or

Poly(alkyl methacrylate) tooth coatings for dental care: evaluation of the demineralisation-protection benefit using a time-resolved in vitro method [PDF]
An in vitro method for the time-resolved quantification of acid-mediated tooth demineralisation has been developed and evaluated against putative non-permanent protective formulations based on a series of poly(alkyl methacrylate)s.

Weakly Supervised Deep Instance Nuclei Detection using Points Annotation in 3D Cardiovascular Immunofluorescent Images [PDF]
Two major causes of death in the United States and worldwide are stroke and myocardial infarction. The underlying cause of both is thrombi released from ruptured or eroded unstable atherosclerotic plaques that occlude vessels in the heart (myocardial infarction) or the brain (stroke). Clinical studies show that plaque composition plays a more important
