Oxidative stress and premature senescence in corneal endothelium following pe...
Abstract Background The purpose of this study was to address the question of how the premature senescence process may affect corneal endothelium after penetrating keratoplasty,... -
Gabor fusion master slave optical coherence tomography
This paper describes the application of the Gabor filtering protocol to a Master/Slave (MS) swept source optical coherence tomography (SS)-OCT system at 1300 nm. The MS-OCT... -
Genetic tool for fate mapping of Oct4 (Pou5f1)-expressing cells and their pro...
Abstract Background Methods based on site-specific recombinases are widely used in studying gene activities in vivo and in vitro. In these studies, constitutively active or... -
An analysis of SPECT/CT non-visualization of sentinel lymph nodes in renal tu...
Abstract Background Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) after intratumoral injection of 99mTc labeled nanocolloid and imaging with scintigraphy and SPECT/CT in renal tumors is... -
The application of FTIR microspectroscopy in a non-invasive and non-destructi...
Abstract The potential of Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) microspectroscopy, to inform the study and conservation of mineralised excavated textiles is discussed, highlighted... -
Patternable particle microarray utilizing controllable particle delivery
Abstract In this study, we demonstrate an on-demand delivering and sequential arraying of single microparticles utilizing multiple pneumatic pressure-driven elastomer valves and... -
Comparison of faecal microbiota in Blastocystis-positive and Blastocystis-neg...
Abstract Background We investigated whether the carriage of Blastocystis in IBS patients was associated with differences in the faecal microbiota. Forty patients with... -
High-speed linear detection time domain optical coherence tomography with ref...
We developed a high-speed linear detection time-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) technique that detected a reflective grating-generated spatial optical delay in the... -
Comparative study of pulse interactions in optical fiber transmission systems...
We compare nonlinear channel interactions in classical soliton, periodically-stationary dispersion-managed soliton (DMS), and chirped-return-to-zero (CRZ) systems. We studied... -
Developmental and morphological studies in Japanese medaka with ultra-high re...
We propose ultra-high resolution optical coherence tomography to study the morphological development of internal organs in medaka fish in the post-embryonic stages at micrometer... -
Isolation of exosomes from whole blood by a new microfluidic device: proof of...
Abstract Background Exosomes are endocytic-extracellular vesicles with a diameter around 100 nm that play an essential role on the communication between cells. In fact, they... -
Saliva exosomes-derived UBE2O mRNA promotes angiogenesis in cutaneous wounds ...
Abstract Background Enhancing angiogenesis is critical for accelerating wound healing. Application of different types of exosomes (Exos) to promote angiogenesis represents a... -
Removal of the product from the culture medium strongly enhances free fatty a...
Abstract Background Cyanobacterial mutants engineered for production of free fatty acids (FFAs) secrete the products to the medium and hence are thought to be useful for biofuel... -
Epidemiology of burns in pediatric patients of Beijing City
Abstract Background This study aimed to assess the epidemiological characteristics of pediatric burns in Beijing City. Methods This was a retrospective study of pediatric... -
Integrative assessment of brain and bone invasion in meningioma patients
Abstract Background Various prognostic factors have been suggested in meningioma patients including WHO grading, brain invasion and bone involvement, for instance. Brain... -
Positive end-expiratory pressure improves elastic working pressure in anesthe...
Abstract Background Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) has been demonstrated to decrease ventilator-induced lung injury in patients under mechanical ventilation (MV) for... -
Microcirculatory dysfunction and dead-space ventilation in early ARDS: a hypo...
Abstract Background Ventilation/perfusion inequalities impair gas exchange in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Although increased dead-space ventilation (VD/VT) has... -
Synthesis of graphene oxide-quaternary ammonium nanocomposite with synergisti...
Abstract Background Bacterial infection is one of the most common complications in burn, trauma, and chronic refractory wounds and is an impediment to healing. The frequent... -
Adaptive optics optical coherence tomography angiography for morphometric ana...
Histological studies have shown that morphometric changes at the microscopic level of choriocapillaris (CC) occur with aging and disease onset, and therefore may be sensitive... -
Image reconstruction for structured-illumination microscopy with low signal l...
We report a new image processing technique for the structured illumination microscopy designed to work with low signals, with the goal of reducing photobleaching and...
