Typical DU ammunition and armor are consisted of 99.25% DU and 0.75% titanium alloy.16 Unlike tungsten projectile which becomes blunt rapidly during piercing armor, the adiabatic shear features of DU projectile can make it self-sharpening in the process of penetrating armored vehicle.17 The ...
These findings suggested that other factors might be involved in the progression of scoliosis in RA patients. Bone fragility is a typical pathological feature of RA [11]. Although the present study lacks bone mineral density data, the scoliosis itself would make accurate measurement difficult. The ...
