Ontogeny influences sensitivity to climate change stressors in an endangered fish.

Conservation physiology

Komoroske LM, Connon RE, Lindberg J, Cheng BS, Castillo G, Hasenbein M, Fangue NA.
PMID: 27293629
Conserv Physiol. 2014 Mar 10;2(1):cou008. doi: 10.1093/conphys/cou008. eCollection 2014.

Coastal ecosystems are among the most human-impacted habitats globally, and their management is often critically linked to recovery of declining native species. In the San Francisco Estuary, the Delta Smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus) is an endemic, endangered fish strongly tied...

Thyroid Storm and Incidental Anterior Mediastinal Teratoma: Coincidence or Correlation?.

Acta Cardiologica Sinica

Wang CA, Chen WT, Cheng HS, Chung CC, Chen YJ, Hsieh MH.
PMID: 27122746
Acta Cardiol Sin. 2013 Sep;29(5):467-70.

UNLABELLED: Teratoma is a rare cause of thyrotoxicosis. Among the different types of teratoma, struma ovarii is the main type which contains thyroid tissue. There is no evidence in the literature that would indicate mediasternal teratoma would also lead...

New Actuation Mechanism for Actively Cooled SMA Springs in a Neurosurgical Robot.

IEEE transactions on robotics : a publication of the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society

Cheng SS, Kim Y, Desai JP.
PMID: 29151822
IEEE Trans Robot. 2017 Aug;33(4):986-993. doi: 10.1109/TRO.2017.2679199. Epub 2017 Mar 29.

The paper presents the use of shape memory alloy (SMA) spring actuators with real-time cooling to control the motion of the MINIR-II robot. A new actuation mechanism involving the passage of water as the cooling medium and air as...

LC-0882 targets PAK4 and inhibits PAK4-related signaling pathways to suppress the proliferation and invasion of gastric cancer cells.

American journal of translational research

Zhang HY, Zhang J, Hao CZ, Zhou Y, Wang J, Cheng MS, Zhao DM, Li F.
PMID: 28670365
Am J Transl Res. 2017 Jun 15;9(6):2736-2747. eCollection 2017.

Gastric cancer is the most common malignant tumor and globally the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Therefore, there exists an urgent need to identify new effective gastric cancer treatments. Given the important roles in tumorigenesis and progression, p21-activated...

Mini-open removal of intradural spinal tumor.

Neurosurgical focus

Cheng JS, Upadhyaya C, Wu JC, Tu TH, Mummaneni PV.
PMID: 26016392
Neurosurg Focus. 2012 Jul;33:1. doi: 10.3171/2012.V2.FOCUS12152.

Minimally invasive surgical (MIS) approaches have gained popularity in many surgical fields. Potential advantages to a minimally invasive, spinal intradural approach include decreased operative blood loss, shorter hospitalization, and less post-operative pain. Potential disadvantages include longer operative times, decreased...

Phonon induced phase grating in quantum dot system.

Optics express

Cheng GL, Zhong WX, Chen AX.
PMID: 25969028
Opt Express. 2015 Apr 20;23(8):9870-80. doi: 10.1364/OE.23.009870.

Electromagnetically induced phase grating is theoretically investigated in the driven two-level quantum dot exciton system at the presence of the exciton-phonon interactions. Due to the phonon-induced coherent population oscillation, the dispersion and absorption spectra are sharply changed and the...

Approaching the asymptotic regime of rapidly rotating convection: boundary layers versus interior dynamics.

Physical review letters

Stellmach S, Lischper M, Julien K, Vasil G, Cheng JS, Ribeiro A, King EM, Aurnou JM.
PMID: 25554884
Phys Rev Lett. 2014 Dec 19;113(25):254501. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.113.254501. Epub 2014 Dec 15.

Rapidly rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection is studied by combining results from direct numerical simulations (DNS), laboratory experiments, and asymptotic modeling. The asymptotic theory is shown to provide a good description of the bulk dynamics at low, but finite Rossby number....

Hexagonal Boron Nitride Tunnel Barriers Grown on Graphite by High Temperature Molecular Beam Epitaxy.

Scientific reports

Cho YJ, Summerfield A, Davies A, Cheng TS, Smith EF, Mellor CJ, Khlobystov AN, Foxon CT, Eaves L, Beton PH, Novikov SV.
PMID: 27681943
Sci Rep. 2016 Sep 29;6:34474. doi: 10.1038/srep34474.

We demonstrate direct epitaxial growth of high-quality hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) layers on graphite using high-temperature plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy. Atomic force microscopy reveals mono- and few-layer island growth, while conducting atomic force microscopy shows that the grown hBN...

Very little has been published in the scientific literature on the human health effects of Florida red tide, either as human clinical case reports or formal epidemiologic studies. In addition to the health effects associated with the ingestion of...

Capsule retention caused by duodenal metastases from primary appendiceal adenocarcinoma.

Intestinal research

Chou JW, Cheng KS.
PMID: 28239324
Intest Res. 2017 Jan;15(1):130-132. doi: 10.5217/ir.2017.15.1.130. Epub 2017 Jan 31.

Metastatic small bowel cancers are extremely rare in clinical practice. Primary appendiceal adenocarcinoma with gastrointestinal metastasis is seldom reported in the literature. Here, we describe the case of an 80-year-old male patient with primary appendiceal adenocarcinoma, who presented to...
