Characteristic features are “comet-tail” artefacts and “twinkling” artefacts on US, “pearl-necklace sign” on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and “rosary sign” on computed tomography (CT). Cholecystectomy should be offered for symptomatic GA of any type. For asymptomatic GA, cholecystectomy may be considered for segmental type for its increased…[Read more]

Micellar enhanced ultra-filtration (MEUF) is a modified ultrafiltration (UF) method that can remove small molecules that are not effectively removed by UF alone. In this work we used a similar semi-equilibrium dialysis (SED) method to characterize two anionic surfactants, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and sodium laurate (SOL), as MEUF candidates to…[Read more]

Our findings suggest that the effect of maltreatment on inflammation may already emerge right after exposure at a very young age in girls and manifest over time. Our study provides important evidence for the development of personalized, early interventions strategies targeting the early-life period.

Scaling up VWP with Vetiver and related competitive plant species holds promise for wastewater remediation for both human and ecosystem services.Not only the steadily growing demand for electricity generation but also the environmental concerns in recent years have led to the belief in the importance of renewable energy. Wind is one of the most…[Read more]

05 mm Hg with limits of agreement -5.39 to 5.5 by Bland-Altman plot). Of the 100 eyes with type-1 keratoprostheses, 68 were classified as having digitally normal IOP, 28 as borderline and 4 as high. The agreement between classification by FT assessment and model-predicted GAT IOP values was substantial (Kappa=0.81, 95% CI 0.69 to 0.93). The acc…[Read more]
