Impact of surface phenomena on direct bulk flexoelectric effect in finite samples

open access: yes, 2015
In the framework of a continuum theory, it is shown that the direct flexoelectric response of a finite sample essentially depends on the surface polarization energy, even in the thermodynamic limit where the body size tends to infinity.

Surface topography of hydroxyapatite affects ROS17/2.8 cells response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Hydroxyapatite (HA) has been used in orthopedic, dental, and maxillofacial surgery as a bone substitute. The aim of this investigation was to study the effect of surface topography produced by the presence of microporosity on cell response, evaluating ...

Imaging the paramagnetic nonlinear Meissner effect in nodal gap superconductor

open access: yes, 2017
Boundary surfaces of nodal gap superconductors can host Andreev bound states (ABS) which develop a paramagnetic response under external RF field in contrast to the bulk diamagnetic response of the bulk superconductor.

Clinical Insights Into Hypercalcemia of Malignancy in Childhood

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hypercalcemia of malignancy (HCM) is a rare but life‐threatening metabolic emergency in children that occurs in less than 1% of pediatric cancer cases, with a reported incidence ranging from 0.4% to 1.0% across different studies. While it is observed in 10%–20% of adult malignancies, pediatric HCM remains relatively uncommon.

Application of Response Surface Methodology in Extraction of Bioactive Component From Palm Leaves (Elaeis Guineensis) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The hydroxyl groups of the polyphenols are capable to act as reducing agent for reduction reaction. The effect of drying temperature, extraction temperature and extraction duration were evaluated using central composite design which consists of 20 ...

Application of response surface methodology to stiffened panel optimization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In a multilevel optimization frame, the use of surrogate models to approximate optimization constraints allows great time saving. Among available metamodelling techniques we chose to use Neural Networks to perform regression of static mechanical criteria,

Personalized Selumetinib Dosing in Pediatric Neurofibromatosis Type 1: Insights From a Pilot Therapeutic Drug Monitoring Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate selumetinib exposure using therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) in pediatric patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and plexiform neurofibromas (PN), assess interpatient pharmacokinetic variability, and explore the relationship between drug exposure, clinical response, and adverse effects.
