In general, the inflation experiments observed viscoelastic behavior in the form of rate-dependent hysteresis in the pressure–deformation response of the apex of the cornea, creep in the apex deformation at a constant inflation pressure, and relaxation in the pressure response at a constant ...

High-altitude cerebral edema (HACE), which is characterized by headache, ataxia, fatigue and altered mental status, is a severe form of high-altitude illness that typically occurs after people rapidly ascend to 2500 m or more [1]. It can lead to coma and death without timely diagnosis or ...
Physical activity was assessed using the modified International Physical Activity Questionnaire (long-form) [26], which collected the type, intensity, frequency, and duration of exercise. The weighted metabolic equivalents of task (MET)-min per week (MET·min·wk–1) were calculated as duration×...
min to form porous silicon pillars. Finally, the pillars were sharpened by reactive ion etching to form porous nanoneedles. Experimental results showed that dimensions of nanoneedles could be tuned by adjusting various processing parameters, such as reaction time, temperature, and concentration of the ...
(Hu2016). Experiments on the control of sand and water flow in the inclined fracture model with chemical grout showed that the key to sealing the crack is to form a stable grouted sand layer. The viscosity of the slurry and the gelatinization trend of the slurry can not only reduce the ...
(hdrD) to form the energy-converting ferredoxin:heterodisulfide oxidoreductase complex (Fig.4). Moreover, Methanomassiliicoccales possessed a large amount of methyl viologen-dependent hydrogenase (mvhADG) and the Hdr complex (hdrABC) to couple the reduction of the heterodisulfide CoM-S-S-CoB...

Here, we report the development of fibronectin (FN)-based 3D hydrogels of controlled stiffness and degradability that incorporate full-length FN to enable solid-phase presentation of growth factors in a physiological manner. We demonstrate, in vitro and in vivo, the effect of incorporating vascular...
(often only air) where the flame-front cools rapidly and the harmful NOxhas little opportunity to form. The additional oxygen in the lean charge also combines with any CO to form CO2, which is less harmful. This technology has also been applied to the latest electronically controlled direct ...
