Focal extracorporeal shockwave therapy in shoulder calcific tendinopathy: A retrospective observational study of sonographic prognostic factors

open access: yesPM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To assess the potential prognostic role of sonographic parameters such as glenohumeral joint effusion, subacromial‐subdeltoid bursitis, and the type of intratendinous calcific deposition to predict the clinical and functional outcomes of focal extracorporeal shockwave therapy (fESWT) in patients with calcific tendinopathy of the ...

Systematics in the Cepheid and TRGB Distance Scales: Metallicity Sensitivity of the Wesenheit Leavitt Law

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Using an updated and significantly augmented sample of Cepheid and tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) distances to 28 nearby spiral and irregular galaxies, covering a wide range of metallicities, we have searched for evidence of a correlation of the zero-

Flowing in History: Reflecting on Past Practices and Their Influence on the Health of Richmond River Catchment, New South Wales, Australia

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Richmond River forms part of the coastal region of New South Wales (NSW) Australia, and is of great environmental, social, and economic importance. The history of the river reflects its role in providing the needs upon which human life depends—water, fertile soil, and food.

Metallicity of Globular Cluster NGC 5053 from VI CCD Photometry [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2001
Red giant branch shape and the luminosity of horizontal branch on the (V-I)-V CMD are used to derive the metallcity of the globular cluster NGC 5053. The metallicities of NGC 5053 derived by SMR method ([Fe/H]=-2.62+-0.07) and the relation between [Fe/H]

On the Correlation Between Metallicity and the X-Shaped Morphology of the Milky Way Bulge

open access: yes, 2014
We demonstrate that failure to properly account for stellar evolution can bias results in determinations of the spatial morphology of Galactic bulge stars, focusing on the question of whether or not the X-shape is more pronounced among the more metal ...

Integrating terrestrial and canopy laser scanning for comprehensive analysis of large old trees: Implications for single tree and biodiversity research

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Canopy laser scanning (CLS) enhances 3D measurements of large trees by lifting laser scanners into the canopy. Combining CLS with terrestrial laser scanning improves point cloud precision, reduces occlusion and enables detailed assessments of tree architecture and canopy biodiversity, opening new opportunities for forest ecology.

From Membrane Composition to Antimicrobial Strategies: Experimental and Computational Approaches to AMP Design and Selectivity

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising candidates for next‐generation antibiotics, acting through mechanisms such as membrane disruption and intracellular targeting. This review examines how variations in bacterial membrane composition critically influence AMP activity.

Testing Tidal Theory Using Gaia Binaries: The Red Giant Branch

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Tidal interaction is a major ingredient in the theory of binary evolution. Here, we study tidal circularization in binaries with red giant primaries. We compute the tidal evolution for binaries as their primary stars evolve along the red giant branch ...

Detection of intergalactic red-giant-branch stars in the Virgo cluster

open access: yesNature, 1998
It has been suspected for nearly 50 years that clusters of galaxies contain a population of intergalactic stars, ripped from galaxies during cluster formation or when the galaxies' orbits take them through the cluster center. Support for the existence of such a population of free-floating stars comes from measurements of the diffuse light in clusters ...
