Acute Effects of Smoking and Vaping on Markers of Vascular Function via Quantitative MRI

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background E‐cigarettes contribute to endothelial dysfunction, a known cause of systemic atherosclerotic disease that cannot be adequately characterized by a single physiological parameter measured at a single vascular bed. Purpose/Hypothesis Quantify and compare acute effects of smoking or vaping with tobacco cigarettes (t‐cigs), nicotinized ...

Transcending the Space‐Bandwidth and Lighting Trade‐Offs: A Programmable Self‐Mixing Interferometry Imager for Cross‐Scale Surface Inspection

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
This work reports a laser diode‐based self‐mixing interferometry imager featuring illumination‐invariance imaging, a 500 kHz pixel rate, and an 8.77 µm lateral resolution. It also features a programmable field‐of‐view and leading space‐bandwidth product that surpasses existing technologies by an order of magnitude, enabling cross‐scale workflow ...

Placental Blood‐Flow Velocity Quantification From Diffusion MRI

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Altered placental capillary blood flow is closely linked to obstetric complications, yet quantifying capillary‐scale blood velocity remains challenging with existing imaging methods. This is partially because capillary networks form disordered microvascular beds at the voxel scale, rather than coherent, directional vessels.

Adaptive particle image velocimetry based on sharpness metrics

Journal of the European Optical Society-Rapid Publications, 2018
Background Optical distortions can significantly deteriorate the measurement accuracy in particle image velocimetry systems. Such distortions can occur at fluctuating phase boundaries during flow measurement and result from the accompanied refractive ...

AWSD Reactive Burn Model for the HMX‐Based High Explosive LX‐04

Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An Arrhenius–Wescott–Stewart–Davis (AWSD) reactive burn model is applied to describe shock initiation and detonation properties of the HMX‐based high explosive LX‐04. The parameters in the model are calibrated to data from multiple sources. The thermodynamic equations of state used in the model are calibrated to a combination of thermochemical

Validation of a Particle Image Velocimetry Algorithm Through Comparative Field and Laboratory Analysis

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flow velocity measurement is fundamental to hydrological and hydraulic studies, providing essential data for streamflow estimation and river dynamics analysis. Traditional in situ methods like propeller gauges and acoustic Doppler current profilers are accurate but intrusive and labour‐intensive, while non‐intrusive image processing methods ...

Interobserver and intraobserver variability of fetal and maternal Doppler measurements: systematic review and meta‐analysis

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate the variability and reproducibility of umbilical artery (UA), fetal middle cerebral artery (MCA) and uterine artery (UtA) Doppler ultrasound measurements in pregnancy. Methods A systematic search of MEDLINE, EMBASE and the Cochrane Library (CENTRAL) was conducted from inception to 17 June 2024.

The Performance of Selective Screening Ultrasound to Detect the Small‐for‐Gestational‐Age Foetus: A Prospective Cohort Study Nested Within the DESiGN Randomised Control Trial

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Evidence on the performance of foetal growth ultrasound parameters to detect the Small‐for‐Gestational‐Age (SGA) foetus for a selective cohort is limited. We report the performance of estimated foetal weight under the 10th percentile (EFW < 10th) at the last selective screening ultrasound to detect SGA based on gestational age of ...

Mechanical stiffness orchestrates distinct regulation of MRTFs and YAP/TAZ transcriptional cofactors in hepatocytes

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
MRTFs and YAP/TAZ proteins, or mechanosensitive transcriptional cofactors (MRTcoF), regulate common genes associated with cellular contractility and immune cell infiltration. Their differential regulation in response to stiffness is linked to changes in hepatocyte's aspect ratio. MRTFB does not undergo nuclear translocation under these conditions. This

Assessing the reproducibility of a bioimage analysis workflow characterising tissue flow in Drosophila

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Reproducibility challenges in bioimage analysis are common. The proliferation of tools and workflows creates a complex ecosystem that is difficult to reproduce without deliberate, explicit reporting and support. We assess the reproducibility of Gehrels et al.(2023) as a representative bioimage analysis workflow.
