Size- and Shape-Dependent Antibacterial Studies of Silver Nanoparticles Synthesized by Wet Chemical Routes

Nanomaterials, 2016
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) of different shapes and sizes were prepared by solution-based chemical reduction routes. Silver nitrate was used as a precursor, tri-sodium citrate (TSC) and sodium borohydride as reducing agents, while polyvinylpyrrolidone ...

Central Nervous System Tumors Among Infants in Canada: A Report From CYP‐C

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) tumors in infants are rare, pose unique clinical challenges, and lack large‐scale evidence‐based data to guide management. This study seeks to describe CNS tumors in Canadian infants and to compare their outcomes with those of older children.

An electrical method for the reduction of draught in ploughing

, 1924
An electrical method is suggested for reducing the friction between a metal surface and soil, or other moist substances; and its possible application to soil cultivation is considered.Large reductions in friction were obtained in laboratory tests with a ...

Stability analysis of twin circular tunnels using shear strength reduction method

, 2020
This paper investigates the face stability of twin circular tunnels horizontally aligned in cohesive undrained soil under plane strain conditions. The shear strength reduction method in the two-dimensional finite-element limit analysis programme is used ...

Dissipativity preserving model reduction by retention of trajectories of minimal dissipation [PDF]

, 2009
We present a method for model reduction based on ideas from the behavioral theory of dissipative systems, in which the reduced order model is required to reproduce a subset of the set of trajectories of minimal dissipation of the original system.

Application of near critical behavior of equilibrium ratios to phase equilibrium calculations

Oil & Gas Science and Technology, 2019
We examine the asymptotic behavior of the equilibrium ratios (Ki) near the convergence locus in the pressure-temperature plane. When the Equation of State (EoS) is analytical, which is the case of most EoS of engineering purpose, Ki tends towards unity ...

Social Functioning Within the First Years After Pediatric Brain Tumor Diagnosis and the Relationship With Family Psychosocial Risk

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Survivors of pediatric brain tumors (PBTs) can experience long‐term social difficulties, impacting quality of life. Beyond medical and environmental factors, family psychosocial risk may play a role in social outcomes by shaping the caregiving environment and may provide intervention options.

On sums of k-generalized Fibonacci and k-generalized Lucas numbers as first and second kinds of Thabit numbers [PDF]

Notes on Number Theory and Discrete Mathematics
Let (Fᵣ⁽ᵏ⁾)ᵣ≥2-k and (Lᵣ⁽ᵏ⁾)ᵣ≥2-k be generalizations of the Fibonacci and Lucas sequences, where k≥2. For these sequences the initial k terms are 0,0,...,0, 1 and 0,0,...,2,1, and each subsequent term is the sum of the preceding k terms.

Retrospective Analysis of Donor Lymphocyte Infusions in Pediatric Patients With Mixed Chimerism After Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) is an essential therapy for several malignant and nonmalignant diseases, but relapse and graft loss remain the principal threats to its success. Routine monitoring of chimerism and minimal residual disease (MRD) enables early detection of imminent recurrence and guides ...

Pediatric Idiopathic Multicentric Castleman Disease Is Often Severe But Responsive to Siltuximab

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease (iMCD) is a potentially fatal immunologic disorder marked by widespread lymphadenopathy and inflammation. Siltuximab, an interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) inhibitor, is the only FDA‐approved treatment for adult patients with iMCD.
