Abstract Background Diagnosis of pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction (PPID) using the thyrotropin‐releasing hormone (TRH) stimulation test requires blood collection 10 minutes after TRH injection; it is unknown if s...

Abstract Background Surveillance efforts are essential to pandemic control, especially where the state is the primary health provider, such as Brazil. When public health testing guidelines limit molecular tests, there ar...

With recent developments in nanotechnologies, metal nanoparticles permeate a wide range of dimension scales, from light wavelength-scale domains down to a few nanometers approaching electronic scales. The electrodynamics...

Abstract A Defected Ground Structure, DGS, based on matryoshka geometry is described in this paper. The proposed DGS geometry is outlined and initial design equations are presented. Four prototypes, with resonant frequen...

RESUMO A UNESCO proclamou o decênio 2022-2032 como Década Internacional das Línguas Indígenas com o intuito de refletir sobre as ameaças contra as línguas indígenas e, sobretudo, com o objetivo de propor ações e...

Abstract Due to quick response and large quantity of electric motor torque, the traction wheels of battery electric vehicle are easy to slip during the initial phase of starting. In this paper, a sliding mode control app...

Abstract Surgical robots have been widely used in different procedures to improve and facilitate the surgery. However, there is no robot designed for endometrial regeneration surgery, which is a new therapy for restoring...

Abstract: This research was carried out in the laboratories of Erbil city on recycled PVC plastic for several times. The plasticizer DOP was extracted from the old plastic to study the extent to which the plasticizer rem...

Abstract Case Description A 10‐month‐old castrated male domestic longhair cat was evaluated for increasing frequency of episodic limb rigidity. Clinical Findings The cat presented for falling over and lying recumbent...

Additive manufacturing (AM), or 3D printing, is an emerging technology that “adds” materials up and constructs products through a layer-by-layer procedure. Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) is a powder-bed-based AM tech...

Abstract Traditional metallic materials usually face a dilemma between high strength and poor strain hardening capacity. However, heterogeneous structured metallic materials have been found to obviously overcome the trad...

Abstract Background Improved methodology to measure acute phase proteins and determination of lipoprotein particle‐size distribution (PSD) could be clinically useful in dogs with systemic inflammatory processes. Object...

Introducción El maní es un alimento de producción regional con alto valor nutricional, que aporta ácidos grasos insaturados y antioxidantes naturales de interés para la salud humana. A su vez, el tegumento del grano...

We demonstrate a simple, femtosecond-scale wavelength tunable, subwavelength-thick nanostructure that performs efficient wavelength conversion from the infrared to the ultraviolet. The output wavelength can be tuned by v...

Background Eye movement abnormality in schizophrenia has been studied for several decades. However, patient differences in eye movements across phases of schizophrenia from eye-tracking studies have not been well documen...
