Abstract This study reports a new method of analysis to measure the surface tension of high melt-temperature liquid metals using levitation in microgravity. The method, which leads to a self-consistent benchmarking techn...

Buildings serve as a key indicator of human land use, and building change detection plays a crucial role in urban growth and shrinkage monitoring, land use planning, and urban development assessment and management. Curre...

Recurrent polychondritis (RP) is a rare systemic autoimmune disorder that rarely involves the central nervous system (CNS). This report describes a 68-year-old male RP patient who was admitted with bilateral auricular sw...

Abstract Optically trapped silica nanoparticles are a promising tool for precise sensing of gravitational or inertial forces and fundamental physics, including tests of quantum mechanics at “large” mass scales. This ...

A partir de este trabajo planteo un análisis del impacto de algunas de las ideas de la modernidad sobre dos de las relaciones fundantes de la antropología, por un lado, la relación naturaleza/cultura, y por otro, la r...

Soybean hull peroxidase (EC 1.11.1.7, SBP) was simultaneously purified and immobilized by dye affinity chromatography with Reactive Blue 4 attached to chitosan mini-spheres. Under optimized conditions, 96% of SBP was ads...

ABSTRACT Background The reported incidence of blood product transfusion reaction (TR) in cats varies greatly. Objective Evaluate the incidence and practices surrounding acute TRs in cats receiving feline blood products, ...

Abstract Background Primary immune thrombocytopenia (pITP) in dogs presents a diagnostic challenge, and clinical markers of severity are lacking. Objectives Identify clinicopathologic features that differentiate pITP fro...

Abstract Background Reported incidence of blood transfusion reactions (TR) varies greatly. Objective To prospectively evaluate the incidence of acute TRs in dogs receiving allogenic blood products, using consensus defini...

Abstract Background Awareness of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) in cats has increased since the development of an assay for feline trypsin‐like immunoreactivity (fTLI). Ultrasound findings in cats with EPI hav...

Abstract Background Magnetic resonance imaging is the method of choice for diagnosing spinal cord neoplasia, but the accuracy of designating the relationship of a neoplasm to the meninges and agreement among observers is...
