Abstract The potential of Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) microspectroscopy, to inform the study and conservation of mineralised excavated textiles is discussed, highlighted... -
Irritable bowel syndrome-specific health-related quality of life instrument: ...
Abstract Background Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) is an important outcome indicator for chronic disease, and particularly in the absence of biological markers for... -
Changes of the glutathione redox system during the weaning transition in pigl...
Abstract Background Weaning is known to result in barrier dysfunction and villus atrophy in the immediate post-weaning phase, and the magnitude of these responses is... -
Solvent: A Key in Digestive Ripening for Monodisperse Au Nanoparticles
Abstract This work has mainly investigated the influence of the solvent on the nanoparticles distribution in digestive ripening. The experiments suggested that the solvents... -
An automated pipeline for analyzing medication event reports in clinical sett...
Abstract Background Medication events in clinical settings are significant threats to patient safety. Analyzing and learning from the medication event reports is an important... -
Associations between biomechanical and clinical/anthropometrical factors and ...
Abstract Background The purpose of this exploratory study was to investigate whether runners with certain biomechanical or clinical/anthropometrical characteristics sustain more... -
A systematic review of the measurement properties of patient reported outcome...
Abstract Background Ankle fractures are painful and debilitating injuries that pose a significant burden to society and healthcare systems. Patient reported outcome measures... -
Vascular assessment techniques of podiatrists in Australia and New Zealand: a...
Abstract Background Podiatrists play a central role in conducting non-invasive vascular assessment in the lower extremity. This involves screening for signs and symptoms of... -
Characterization of a photonic crystal fiber mode converter using low coheren...
The relative group delay of the different modes present in an all-fiber LP11 mode converter at a central wavelength of 750 nm is observed using low coherence interferometric... -
Reviewing clinical guideline development tools: features and characteristics
Abstract Background To improve consistency and streamline development and publication of clinical guidelines (GL), there is a need for appropriate software support. We have... -

Detection of gastrointestinal parasitism at recreational canine sites in the ...
Abstract Background The rapid growth in off-leash dog parks provides opportunity for canine socialization activities but carries risk of exposure to intestinal parasites. This... -
Whole-body live mouse imaging by hybrid reflection-mode ultrasound and optoac...
We present a hybrid preclinical imaging scanner that optimally supports image acquisition in both reflection-mode ultrasonography and optoacoustic (OA) tomography modes. The... -
The prevalence of gastric heterotopia of the proximal esophagus is underestim...
Abstract Background The previously reported prevalence of gastric heterotopia in the cervical esophagus, also termed inlet patch (IP), varies substantially, ranging from 0.18 to... -
Measurement of the spectrally-resolved absolute phase difference between orth...
On the basis of white-light interferometry with spectrally integrated detection and Fourier transform (FT) analysis, we demonstrate a novel technique for measuring the... -
Low muscle quality in Japanese type 2 diabetic patients with visceral fat acc...
Abstract Background Although obesity-related type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and sarcopenia in the elderly have been increasing worldwide, the associations among visceral fat... -
Electrically tunable fluidic lens imaging system for laparoscopic fluorescenc...
The addition of fluorescence guidance in laparoscopic procedures has gained significant interest in recent years, particularly through the use of near infrared (NIR) markers. In... -
Translation and validation of two disease-specific patient-reported outcome m...
Abstract Background The Bladder Cancer Index (BCI) and Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Bladder-Cystectomy (FACT-Bl-Cys) were developed to measure disease-specific... -
Geometrical Mie theory for resonances in nanoparticles of any shape
We give a geometrical theory of resonances in Maxwell’s equations that generalizes the Mie formulae for spheres to all scattering channels of any dielectric or metallic particle... -
Control of Fano asymmetry in plasmon induced transparency and its application...
In this paper, we derive a governing equation for spectral asymmetry in electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT). From the key parameters of asymmetry factor - namely dark...
