Association of TWIST1 gene polymorphisms with bone mineral density in postmenopausal women
A novel polymorphism (+1871A>G) in the 3′ flanking region and haplotypes were significantly associated with reduced osteoporosis risk and enhanced bone mineral density (BMD). These results suggest that TWIST1 may...

Identification of novel RANK polymorphisms and their putative association with low BMD among postmenopausal women
Bone mineral density (BMD) is the major factor for determining bone strength, which is closely correlated to osteoporotic fracture risk and is largely determined by multiple genetic factors. The RANK (TNFRSF11A),...

Association of PLXNA2 polymorphisms with vertebral fracture risk and bone mineral density in postmenopausal Korean population
Plexin A2 (PLXNA2) is a receptor that recognizes secreted or membrane-bound semaphorin 3A, which is implicated in neural regulation of bone metabolism.

Structural and spectral properties of SnO2 nanocrystal prepared by microemulsion technique
Extrafine SnO2 nanocrystals as small as 2.4 nm were synthesized by the microemulsion method. The grain sizes and crystallization process were measured and investigated by X-ray diffraction. Two growth processes w...

Branch-and-price algorithm for a multicast routing problem
This paper considers a multicast routing problem to find the minimum cost tree where the whole communication link delay on each path(route) of the tree is subject to a given delay allowance. The problem is for...

Synthesis and characterization of rutile TiO2 nanowhiskers
Rutile TiO2 nanowhiskers have been synthesized by annealing a precursor powder in which NaCl and Ti(OH)4 particles were homogeneously mixed. The precursor powder was prepared by mixing three kinds of inverse micr...

Conductance Resonances in Transport Through a Single Quantum Dot
Measurements of transport through a single quantum dot show sharp resonant conductance peaks. Different temperature-dependent amplitudes for different conductance peaks are explained by the interplay between C...

Quantum-State Spectroscopy in Quantum Wires and Quantum Dots
We review the results obtained from spectroscopy of low-dimensional systems using capacitance measurements. This technique has provided prima facie evidence for spatial quantization in quantum wires and quantu...

Critical Current Density, Flux Creep, and Microstructure in A Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O System
We measured magnetization hysteresis and zero-field-cooled magnetic relaxation for liquid-quenched Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O samples at various temperatures. We found that there is a close correlation between the magnetic...

Measurement of the Sound Velocity in AlAs by Picosecond Ultrasonics
Picosecond ultrasonics have been used to measure the sound velocity and index of refraction in a thin film of AlAs. The AlAs layer was grown by molecular-beam epitaxy on a buffer layer of GaAs which was deposi...

Characterization of Interfacial Roughness in Semiconductor Heterostructures by X-Ray Reflectivity
The reflection of monochromatic x-rays by a layered heterostructure can be utilized as a nondestructive probe to obtain information on the interfacial roughness in the material. Interference between x-rays ref...
