Phase transitions in MgSiO3 post-perovskite in super-Earth mantles [PDF]

, 2017
The highest pressure form of the major Earth-forming mantle silicate is MgSiO3 post-perovskite (PPv). Understanding the fate of PPv at TPa pressures is the first step for understanding the mineralogy of super-Earths-type exoplanets, arguably the most ...

Positive predictive value (PPV) of computed tomography in diagnosing wilms’ tumor using histopathology as gold standard.

The Professional Medical Journal, 2019
CT can also accurately identify vascular invasion that will impact surgical approach along with identification of the preoperative parameters associated with increased risk of intraoperative Wilms’ tumor spill. Objectives: To determine positive predictive value of CT scan in diagnosing wilm’s tumour, taking histopathology as gold standard. Study Design:

Study on the Attenuation Characteristics of Seismic Wave Energy Induced by Underwater Drilling and Blasting

Shock and Vibration, 2019
Seismic wave induced by underwater drilling and blasting may exert adverse effects to the surrounding structures. Peak particle velocity (PPV) has been widely used to reflect the intensity of seismic wave, while the method fails to take other influential

High Positive Predictive Value (PPV) of Cell-Free DNA (cfDNA) Testing in a Clinical Study of 10,000 Consecutive Pregnancies

Journal of Molecular Biomarkers & Diagnosis, 2016
Background: Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) analysis in maternal blood for the detection of fetal Down syndrome is gradually replacing first trimester screening. We present here a large clinical series of 10,000 consecutive pregnancies. Objectives: To study the reliability of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) analysis in maternal blood for the detection of fetal trisomy 21,
