Transient twinkle perception is induced by sequential presentation of stimuli that flicker at frequencies above the critical fusion frequency [PDF]
The critical fusion frequency (CFF) is a threshold that represents the temporal limits of the human visual system. If two flickering stimuli with equal subjective luminances are presented simultaneously at different locations, the CFF is the temporal ...

Higgs bosons with large transverse momentum at the LHC
We compute the next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the production of Higgs bosons with large transverse momentum p⊥≫2mt at the LHC. To accomplish this, we combine the two-loop amplitudes for processes gg→Hg, qg→Hq and qq¯→Hg, recently computed in ...

Resveratrol attenuates inflammation through tristetraprolin expression in human hepatocytes
Resveratrol (Resv), a polyphenolic compound have the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Tristetraprolin (TTP) destabilizes mRNAs of pro-inflammatory cytokines. However, it was not clear how Resv exerts anti-inflammatory effects on hepatocytes. In

Characterization of the complications associated with plasma exchange for thrombotic thrombocytopaenic purpura and related thrombotic microangiopathic anaemias: a single institution experience. [PDF]
Plasma exchange (PEX) is a life-saving therapeutic procedure in patients with thrombotic thrombocytopaenic purpura (TTP) and other thrombotic microangiopathic anaemias (TMAs). However, it may be associated with significant complications, exacerbating the

Use of rituximab for treatment of HIV-infected patients with hematological disorders
Rituximab (MabThera) is one of the most powerful drug with selective action on B-cells. The drug suppresses the polyclonal antibody response to own antigens in autoimmune diseases. For lymphatic tumors it selectively acts on tumors of B-cells.
