Heritability of Cardiothoracic Ratio and Aortic Arch Calcification in Twins
Background and Objectives: Aortic arch calcification (AoAC) is associated with a variety of cardiovascular complications. The measurement and grading of AoAC using posteroanterior (PA) chest X-rays are well established. The cardiothoracic ratio (CTR) can

TiLA: Twin-in-the-Loop Architecture for Cyber-Physical Production Systems [PDF]
Digital twin is a virtual replica of a real-world object that lives simultaneously with its physical counterpart. Since its first introduction in 2003 by Grieves, digital twin has gained momentum in a wide range of applications such as industrial manufacturing, automotive and artificial intelligence. However, many digital-twin-related approaches, found

Effect of genetic and environmental influences on cardiometabolic risk factors: a twin study
Background Both genetic and environmental factors play a role in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. The magnitude of genetic and environmental influences may vary in different populations and can be investigated by twin ...

Twin nucleation in Ti: A study using nudged elastic band (NEB) method [PDF]
Capturing twin nucleation in full-field crystal plasticity is a long-standing problem in materials science. The challenge resides mainly in the biased regional lattice transformation associated with twin formation in defiance of its obedience to a threshold stress law which could be fulfilled in regions where twinning is deferred.

A Twin Study of Perthes Disease [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (LCPD) is an idiopathic avascular necrosis of the femoral head. Its etiology is poorly understood, although previous studies have implicated low birth weight and possible genetic determinants. The aim of this study was to identify potential birth weight and genetic associations
