In contrast, in the human cornea 2, distinct patterns were observed consistent with endothelial-endothelial and stromal-endothelial communication. Endothelial-stromal interactions were observed in the entire cornea during early postnatal mouse corneas. This evidence of endothelial-posterior stromal contact contradicts the hypothesis that corneal…[Read more]

Background The role of minimally invasive surgery in trauma has continued to evolve over the past 20 years. Diagnostic laparoscopy (DL) has become increasingly utilized for the diagnosis and management of both blunt and penetrating injuries. Objective While the safety and feasibility of laparoscopy has been established for penetrating…[Read more]

Inflammasomes are cytosolic multiprotein complexes that sense microbial infections or host cell damage, triggering cytokine production and a proinflammatory form of cell death, called pyroptosis. Whereas pyroptosis and cytokine production may often promote host resistance to infections, uncontrolled inflammasome activation leads to…[Read more]

Thus, we can benchmark our models for further improvements in device engineering. Our study indicates, how the significant increase in X-ray brightness at 4th generation synchrotron, makes high-throughput measurements on realistic nanoelectronic devices viable.Absolute total electron scattering cross sections (TCS) for nitrobenzene molecules with…[Read more]

Pigment epithelial detachment (PED), the anatomical separation of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) from the Bruch’s membrane, is common in many chorioretinal diseases, including neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). PED is present in about 30% to 80% of nAMD patients based on the CATT, EXCITE, and VIEW studies. The influence of…[Read more]
