The vorticity-driven effects are systematically studied in various aspects. With AMPT the distributions of vorticity has been investigated in heavy ion collisions with different collision parameters. Taking the rotational ...

We present a case of spontaneous biliary perforation (SBP) in a previously healthy 3-week-old boy with wor- sening scleral icterus, abdominal distension, and acholic stools. Abdominal ultrasound demonstrated moderate ascites ...

Background: Models of time perception share an element of scalar expectancy theory known as the internal clock, containing specific mechanisms by which the brain is able to experience time passing and function effectively. ...

Alzheimer’s disease is a neurodegenerative disorder that affects the central nervous sys- tem. In this study, we characterized and examined the early metabolic changes in the triple transgenic mouse AD model (3xtg-AD), and ...

Background With the advent of immune-checkpoint inhibitors and targeted treatments (TT), there have been unprecedented response rates and survival in advanced melanoma, but the optimal sequencing of these two treatments ...

Aposematic theory has historically predicted that predators should select for warning signals to converge on a single form, as a result of frequency‐dependent learning. However, widespread variation in warning signals is ...

Declining numbers of hospital autopsies performed in US pathology residency training programs and perceived declining practice of autopsy by many pathologists has caused stakeholder organizations to reassess the role of ...

Resveratrol (RSV) extends the lifespan of various organisms through activation of sirtuin. However, whether RSV-mediated longevity is entirely dependent upon sirtuin is still controversial. Thus, understanding additional ...

Background: Reduced nutrient intake is common in patients after hospitalization, contributing to increased risk for readmissionand mortality. Oral nutrition supplements can improve nutrition status and clinical outcomes, ...

An assumption regarding transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), a minimally invasive procedure for treating aortic stenosis, is that patients remain at, or near baseline and soon return to their presurgical home to ...
