Chord length distributions for rectangular parallelepipeds of various relative dimensions were studied in relation to radiation hardness testing.For each geometry, a differential chord length distribution was generated using a Monte Carlo method to simulate exposure to an isotropic radiation source.The frequency and dose distributions of chord leng
Low back pain is a common presentation to emergency departments, but the reasons why people choose to attend the emergency department have not been explored.We aimed to fill this gap with this study to understand why persons with low back pain choose to attend the emergency department.Between July 4, 2017 and October 1, 2018, consecutive patients w
An emerging neurostimulation therapy utilizes electroceuticals to treat numerous neurological disorders.With the aim to discover novel clinical applications of neural stimulation, device miniaturization has been a key challenge for successful clinical translation of implantable stimulators.The battery size has been a limiting factor in further mini
Variability of three SNP loci allocated in the mitochondrial DNA ( SPORT CONTINUOUS SPRAY SPF 50+ One_CO1, One_Cytb_17, One_Cytb_26 ) is analyzed for sockeye salmon from its different habitats from Chukotka to Kuril Islands.Two basic haplotypes (GCC and GTT) are revealed in 20 samples of sockeye ( n = 33-100) from 15 lake-river systems.Their ratio
Individual differences in cognitive performance increase from early to late adulthood, likely reflecting influences of a multitude of factors.We hypothesize that losses in neurochemical and anatomical brain resources in normal aging modulate the effects of common genetic variations on cognitive functioning.Our hypothesis is based on Collections the
