Bike sharing is an important tool to reduce congestion and pollution in urban areas. Electrically Power Assisted Bicycles (EPAC’s) make cycling possible also for sedentary people. Standard EPAC’s are …
The widespread adoption of face masks is now a standard public health response to the 2020 pandemic. Although studies have shown that wearing a face mask interferes with speech and intelligibility, re…
Articulating paper/film is a sheet strip that is coated with ink- or dye-containing wax and is used for marking occlusal contacts and monitoring the results. New types of occlusal film systems have be…
The aim of this study was to develop an objective evaluation system for the masticatory function. This system used paraffin wax cubes as a test food, which had six red- and green-coloured layers so th…
A theoretical formulation for the profile of the integrated backscatter coefficient (IBC) is derived. This new formulation is based on a theoretical treatment by Chen et al. [1]. It includes correctio…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate a personal-computer-based teleradiology system for the interpretation of radiologic studies from an isolated community.METHODS: During a 5-month study period, 240 radiologic stu…
Past measurements of precorneal tear film thickness in rabbits and humans gave values of 4-7 microns. These have been the accepted values. However, measurements presented in this report are much highe…
A quantification procedure for annular dark-field (ADF) imaging, in which a quantitative contrast is given as a scattering intensity normalized by an incident probe current, is presented. The obtained…
A role of macrophage-mediated inflammatory events in early islet graft loss is increasingly acknowledged. Osteopetrotic mice (op/op) have a complete absence of CSF-1, and thus of most tissue macrophag…
Crystallization following thermal annealing of thin film stacks consisting of alternating nm-thick titania/silica layers was investigated. Several prototypes were designed, featuring a different numbe…
The quality of human islets is one of the factors decisive for the success of human islet transplantation. Several parameters have been proposed to characterize islet quality, but none of them has bee…
To examine local network properties of the mouse auditory cortex in vitro, we recorded extracellular spatiotemporal laminar profiles driven by short electric local stimulation on a planar multielectro…
BACKGROUND: To explore the adsorption of heterologous antibodies in 6 xenotransplants of Landrace piglet kidneys into rhesus monkeys.METHODS: The Landrace piglets and rhesus monkeys were used as donor…
Cortical bone grafts are utilized frequently for skeletal reconstruction, spinal fusion and tumor surgery. Due to its efficacy and convenience terminal sterilization by gamma radiation is often essent…
During development, dopaminergic neurons innervate the developing striatal target, forming two different growth patterns: a patchy growth and a diffuse growth. Chronic treatment with the dopamine anta…
Cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy (TEM) sample preparation of ZnSe/GaAs epitaxial films is investigated. Conventional argon ion milling is shown to produce a high density (approximately…
The presentation of antigen to specific T-cell populations is a crucial event during the elicitation phase of contact hypersensitivity (CHS). Significant changes in CD4(+) T-cell and gammadelta T-cell…
BACKGROUND: The University of Wisconsin (UW) solution has been demonstrated to enhance pulmonary allograft preservation. Endothelial nitric oxide (NO) production has been shown to be significantly imp…
The amplitude of both P1 and N1 waves of the cortical evoked potentials are significantly increased by topical application of GABA and taurine but not of glycine. This suggests a possible depressant e…
Electrical stimulation of the nervous system for therapeutic purposes, such as deep brain stimulation in the treatment of Parkinson's disease, has been used for decades. Recently, increased attention …
