  • The study was extended to observe the effect of pore sizes and temperatures on the contact angle made by a water nanodroplet on h-BN nanosheets, and it was concluded that the contact angle would be less at higher temperatures and larger pore sizes. This study provides important information for the use of h-BN nanosheets in nanodevices for water…[Read more]

  • Different concentrations of castor oil or a hard fat and polysorbate 80 dissolved in ethanol were injected and combined with purified water. Total flow rates of 100 and 200 μL min-1 and flow rate ratios of 15% or less resulted in particle sizes between 67 and 153 nm and polydispersity indices of 0.04 to 0.10. Extended preparation time revealed…[Read more]

  • ANCA-associated vasculitis is a multiorgan autoimmune inflammatory disease that has a heterogeneous clinical presentation. Our case report provides additional evidence supporting the association between granulomatosis with polyangiitis and myositis. In our patient with proximal muscle weakness and pain, a normal creatine kinase and lack of…[Read more]

  • 8% (21/26) having complete aneurysm occlusion. Twelve-month safety data were collected for 91.4% (32/35), 8.5% (3/35) had primary safety endpoint, all 3 major ischemic strokes. Mortality occurred in 2 patients beyond 30 d unrelated to procedure (1 gallbladder cancer and 1 fentanyl intoxication). At 1 yr, modified Rankin Score was 0 to 2 in 84.4%…[Read more]

  • The efficacy of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) for pregnancy-related spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is controversial, as graft occlusion due to SCAD lesion healing has been reported. Only 24 grafts in 14 cases of CABG for SCAD have been reported. While 8 of the 9 arterial grafts were occluded, 9 of the 15 vein grafts were…[Read more]
