PMID: 25792816
Patient Prefer Adherence. 2015 Mar 11;9:429-33. doi: 10.2147/PPA.S77029. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: Prenatal gender disclosure is a nonmedical fetal ultrasonography view, which is considered ethically unjustified but has continued to grow in demand due to pregnant women's requests.OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to determine the proportion of primigravidae...

Preventing Filipino Mental Health Disparities: Perspectives from Adolescents, Caregivers, Providers, and Advocates.

Filipino Americans are the second largest immigrant population and second largest Asian ethnic group in the U.S. Disparities in youth behavioral health problems and the receipt of mental health services among Filipino youth have been documented previously. However, few...

Production of monodisperse silica gel microspheres for bioencapsulation by extrusion into an oil cross-flow.

Journal of microencapsulation

Benson JJ, Wackett LP, Aksan A.
PMID: 27358010
J Microencapsul. 2016 Aug;33(5):412-420. doi: 10.1080/02652048.2016.1202346. Epub 2016 Jun 29.

Silica gel microspheres are ideal materials for bioencapsulation due to their mechanical properties, biocompatibility, and stability. Encapsulated cells are isolated from the environment and protected from predators, changes in pH, and osmotic stress. However methods for the production of...

Near-theoretical fracture strengths in native and oxidized silicon nanowires.

Nanotechnology

DelRio FW, White RM, Krylyuk S, Davydov AV, Friedman LH, Cook RF.
PMID: 27325151
Nanotechnology. 2016 Aug 05;27(31):31LT02. doi: 10.1088/0957-4484/27/31/31LT02. Epub 2016 Jun 21.

In this letter, fracture strengths σ f of native and oxidized silicon nanowires (SiNWs) were determined via atomic force microscopy bending experiments and nonlinear finite element analysis. In the native SiNWs, σ f in the Si was comparable to...

Pentafluorophenyl Ester-Functionalized Nanoparticles as a Versatile Platform for Selective and Covalent Inter-nanoparticle Coupling.

ACS applied materials & interfaces

Lawrence J, Emrick T.
PMID: 26730845
ACS Appl Mater Interfaces. 2016 Jan 27;8(3):2393-8. doi: 10.1021/acsami.5b11550. Epub 2016 Jan 15.

Preparing chemically selective nanoparticle (NP) building blocks to make robust structures from different NP compositions often requires complex hetero-bifunctional ligand pairs that have limited scalability and versatility. Here we describe pentafluorophenyl ester-functionalized nanoparticles (PFP-NPs) as versatile building blocks for...

Mitochondrial Glutathione in Diabetic Nephropathy.

Journal of clinical medicine

Lash LH.
PMID: 26239684
J Clin Med. 2015 Jul 09;4(7):1428-47. doi: 10.3390/jcm4071428.

Although there are many etiologies for diabetic nephropathy (DN), one common characteristic of all cases involves mitochondrial oxidative stress and consequent bioenergetic dysfunction. As the predominant low-molecular-weight, intramitochondrial thiol reductant, the mitochondrial glutathione (mtGSH) pool plays important roles in...

Measurement of axial vertebral rotation using three-dimensional ultrasound images.

Scoliosis

Vo QN, Lou EH, Le LH.
PMID: 25815050
Scoliosis. 2015 Feb 11;10:S7. doi: 10.1186/1748-7161-10-S2-S7. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: Axial vertebral rotation (AVR) is one of the important parameters to evaluate the severity and predict the progression of scoliosis. However, the AVR measurements on radiographs may underestimate its actual value. This pilot study investigated a new three-dimensional...

Resuscitative Long-Bone Sonography for the Clinician: Usefulness and Pitfalls of Focused Clinical Ultrasound to Detect Long-Bone Fractures During Trauma Resuscitation.

European journal of trauma and emergency surgery : official publication of the European Trauma Society

Al-Kadi AS, Gillman LM, Ball CG, Panebianco NL, Kirkpatrick AW.
PMID: 26815050

Bone has one of the highest acoustic densities (AD) in the human body. Traditionally, bone has been considered to be a hindrance to the use of ultrasound (US), as US waves are reflected by the dense matrix and obscure...

Universal Length Dependence of Rod-to-Seed Exciton Localization Efficiency in Type I and Quasi-Type II CdSe@CdS Nanorods.

ACS nano

Wu K, Hill LJ, Chen J, McBride JR, Pavlopolous NG, Richey NE, Pyun J, Lian T.
PMID: 25803834
ACS Nano. 2015 Apr 28;9(4):4591-9. doi: 10.1021/acsnano.5b01245. Epub 2015 Mar 30.

A critical step involved in many applications of one-dimensional seeded CdSe@CdS nanorods, such as luminescent solar concentrators, optical gains, and photocatalysis, is the localization of excitons from the light-harvesting CdS nanorod antenna into the light-emitting CdSe quantum dot seed....

Outcome Analysis of the Transglabellar/Subcranial Approach for Lesions of the Anterior Cranial Fossa: A Comparison with the Classic Craniotomy Approach.

Otolaryngology--head and neck surgery : official journal of American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery

The classic approach to anterior skull base lesions uses bifrontal craniotomies together with lateral rhinotomies. This approach requires frontal lobe retraction and is associated with postoperative anosmia and the development of frontal lobe encephalomalacia. The transglabellar/subcranial approach permits removal...
