The isolation of graphene in 2004 from graphite was a defining moment for the “birth” of a
field: two-dimensional (2D) materials. In recent years, there has been a rapidly increasing …

BACKGROUND Clinically isolated adrenal metastasis is rare. The role of surgical resection
is unknown. The aim of this study was to define clinical and pathologic parameters that might …

Background— Complex-fractionated atrial electrograms and atrial fibrosis are associated
with maintenance of persistent atrial fibrillation (AF). We hypothesized that pulmonary vein …

Delay in follow-up after an abnormal mammogram is associated with advanced disease
stage, poorer survival, and increased anxiety. Despite the implementation of many patient …

The glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 61 is a long-recognized, but still recondite, class of
proteins, with little known about the activity, mechanism or function of its more than 70 members. …

BACKGROUND: In performing catheter ablation of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF), the
advent of electroanatomical mapping (EAM) has significantly reduced fluoroscopy time. Recent …

Purpose : Therapeutic options currently available for urinary stones include shock wave
lithotripsy, percutaneous nephrolithotomy and ureteroscopic treatment. While these treatment …

The impact of the Ag particle (metal powder in the screen printed paste) size on the quality of
Ag thick-film ohmic contacts to high-sheet-resistance emitters of Si solar cells is investigated…

Background— Catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia (VT) is effective and particularly
useful in patients with frequent defibrillator interventions. Various substrate modification …

The aim of this study is to understand the effect of the glass frit chemistry used in thick-film
Ag pastes on the electrical performance of the silicon solar cell. The study focuses on the …
