The distribution behavior of furfural in insulation systems is influenced by the oil-pressboard mass ratio. In addition, the equilibrium distribution of furfural between oil and pressboard will be disturbed after oil replacement. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the distribution ratio of furfural in oil with various oil-pressboard…[Read more]

COMPARISON WITH EXISTING METHODS We compare new and established approaches using functional imaging data, where we find the proposed approach produces parcellations which are both more accurate and more repeatable than the current baseline clustering method. The metrics also demonstrate potential problems with overfitting for the baseline method,…[Read more]

The prognostic value and molecular landscape of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) low-expressing (HER2-L) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) remain unclear.

This study enrolled patients with mCRC who had undergone surgical resection of primary tumor. Using the specimen, we evaluated HER2 expression by immunohistochemistry…[Read more]

Thermoelectric properties such as Seebeck coefficient, electrical conductivity, electronic thermal conductivity and power factor are investigated as a function of carrier doping at temperatures 300 K, 400 K, and 500 K. In general, we predict that the C6N monolayer could be a new platform for study of novel physical properties in two-dimensional…[Read more]

The throwaway culture related to the single-use materials such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET) has created a major environmental concern. Recycling of PET waste into biodegradable plastic polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) creates an opportunity to improve resource efficiency and contribute to a circular economy. We sequenced the genome of Pseudomonas…[Read more]

Significant scale-up was realized with the CM line by increasing the throughput rate to 10 kg/h. The manufactured granules yielded very similar results to the previous small-scale granulation runs. API homogeneity was demonstrated (RSD less then 2%) with Blend Uniformity Analysis (BUA). The efficiency of TSWG granulation was compared to High-Shear…[Read more]

0001) and 141.1 ± 27.4 mmHg (P = .001) for SomBP1 and SomBP2, respectively. Ninety-five% limits of agreement between OscBP and SomBP1 were ± 36.6 mmHg for daytime and ± 42.6 mmHg for nighttime SBP, respectively. Agreements were not improved with SomBP2. learn more For SBP, a nocturnal dipping pattern was found in 33% of the study patients when me…[Read more]

RESULTS Twenty-eight infants with bronchiolitis and 10 healthy comparators were included. Cases with bronchiolitis showed significantly lower values of RV LS and LV LS compared to healthy comparators (LV p0.04 and RV P  less then  .001). Ten infants (36%) had a normal biventricular function, nine (32%) had LV impairment, and nine (32%) had a biv…[Read more]

03). Additionally, eight genes (rpoA, atpF, cemA, rps4, ccsA, rpoC2, rpl14 and clpP) exhibited elevated pairwise Ka/Ks ratios in alpine species. Phylogenetic analyses based on the CDS sequences and the whole complete genomes showed same topologies with high support, and A. macranthum was closely clustered with A. fasciculatum within the fourteen…[Read more]
