Increased volumes of mildly elevated capillary transit time heterogeneity positively predict favorable outcome and negatively predict intracranial hemorrhage in acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion
In patients with acute ischemic stroke, we aimed to investigate whether microvascular changes, as indexed by capillary transit time heterogeneity (CTH), contribute to the decline of the chance for favorable ou...

Mutations in the TLR3 signaling pathway and beyond in adult patients with herpes simplex encephalitis
Herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) in children has previously been linked to defects in type I interferon production downstream of Toll-like receptor (TLR)3. In the present study, we used whole-exome sequencing...

DC-SIGN (CD209), pentraxin 3 and vitamin D receptor gene variants associate with pulmonary tuberculosis risk in West Africans
We investigated the role of DC-SIGN (CD209), long pentraxin 3 (PTX3) and vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in susceptibility to pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) in 321 TB cases an...

Nonlinear fracture mechanics and plasticity of the split cylinder test
The split cylinder test is subjected to an analysis combining nonlinear fracture mechanics and plasticity. The fictitious crack model is applied for the analysis of splitting tensile fracture, and the Mohr-Cou...

Effect of impermeable interfaces on apparent diffusion coefficient in heterogeneous media
It is known that the short-time behavior of the diffusion coefficient, which is measurable by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), provides an estimate of the specific surface of porous samples filled with an NMR...

Xenon CT cerebral blood flow in patients with head injury: influence of pulmonary trauma on the input function
The noninvasive xenon-enhanced CT (Xe CT) cerebral blood flow (CBF) method has been used in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) to identify the blood-flow thresholds for the development of irrev...

Evaluation of urogenitalChlamydia trachomatis infections by cell culture and the polymerase chain reaction using a closed system
Two hundred and fifty-four specimens from males and females consulting a clinic for sexually transmitted diseases were analyzed for genitalChlamydia trachomatis infection. Each clinical sample was tested by the c...
