Surface texturing of Ti6Al4V alloy using femtosecond laser for superior antibacterial performance [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Titanium and its alloy are most widely used implant materials in dental and orthopaedic fields. However, infections occurring during implantation leads to implant failure in most of the cases. Here, we have demonstrated antibacterial behavior of Ti6Al4V alloy achieved when surface modified using femtosecond laser beam.

The Significance of Subperiosteal Abscess Volume in Acute Mastoiditis
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Both needle aspiration and I&D are safe methods to reduce the infective and inflammatory load of subperiosteal abscess due to acute mastoiditis and provide pus for culture. Higher volumes (~3 cm3 and more) should be managed initially with cortical mastoidectomy since the risk of no improvement following needle aspiration or I&D is higher.

DCA for genome-wide epistasis analysis: the statistical genetics perspective [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Direct Coupling Analysis (DCA) is a now widely used method to leverage statistical information from many similar biological systems to draw meaningful conclusions on each system separately. DCA has been applied with great success to sequences of homologous proteins, and also more recently to whole-genome population-wide sequencing data.
