… The pulse that recorded the diffraction pattern heated the sample up to about 60,000 K,
which ablated and melted. Nevertheless, the image is recorded to the 62-nm diffraction limit of …

Background The global rise in obesity prevalence among children and adolescents has been
linked to modifiable lifestyle factors, including lack of physical activity. However, no known …

The physical sciences community is increasingly taking advantage of the possibilities offered
by modern data science to solve problems in experimental chemistry and potentially to …

Ankylosing spondylitis is a common form of inflammatory arthritis predominantly affecting
the spine and pelvis that occurs in approximately 5 out of 1,000 adults of European descent. …

Objective —To evaluate a portable real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction
(RT-PCR) assay designed to detect all 7 viral serotypes of footand- mouth disease virus (…

… The long lifetime of the 5 T 2 excited state allows us to set k 3 ≈ 0 when we model the
kinetics in the first couple of picoseconds. The integrated rate equations can be reduced to: …

Intense femtosecond laser excitation can produce transient states of matter that would otherwise
be inaccessible to laboratory investigation. At high excitation densities, the interatomic …

The motion of atoms on interatomic potential energy surfaces is fundamental to the dynamics
of liquids and solids. An accelerator-based source of femtosecond x-ray pulses allowed us …

Objective. The transcription factor–κB (NF‐κB) has been implicated in the inflammatory response
and is known to be activated by a process involving reactive oxygen intermediates. The …

OBJECTIVE--To assess the efficacy of a single intra-articular injection of triamcinolone
hexacetonide (THA) in knee osteoarthritis (OA) and examine factors which may relate to treatment …
