Geng T, Smallwood CR, Bredeweg EL, Pomraning KR, Plymale AE, Baker SE, Evans JE, Kelly RT.
PMID: 28966700
Biomicrofluidics. 2017 Sep 19;11(5):054104. doi: 10.1063/1.4986533. eCollection 2017 Sep.

Modern live-cell imaging approaches permit real-time visualization of biological processes, yet limitations exist for unicellular organism isolation, culturing, and long-term imaging that preclude fully understanding how cells sense and respond to environmental perturbations and the link between single-cell variability...

Improving care collaboration for NICU patients to decrease length of stay and readmission rate.

BMJ open quality

Welch CD, Check J, O'Shea TM.
PMID: 29450288
BMJ Open Qual. 2017 Oct 21;6(2):e000130. doi: 10.1136/bmjoq-2017-000130. eCollection 2017.

BACKGROUND: Medically complex patients in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) typically require long hospitalisations and care from multiple subspecialists. Scheduled multidisciplinary discussions could improve collaboration and continuity of care and thereby improve patient outcomes. The specific aims of the...

Conditional statistics of temperature fluctuations in turbulent convection.

Physical review. E, Statistical, nonlinear, and soft matter physics

Ching ES, Chau KL.
PMID: 11308985
Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys. 2001 Apr;63(4):047303. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevE.63.047303. Epub 2001 Mar 28.

We find that the conditional statistics of temperature difference at fixed values of the locally averaged temperature dissipation rate in turbulent convection become Gaussian in the regime where the mixing dynamics is expected to be driven by buoyancy. Hence,...

Toward understanding mobile proton behavior from first principles calculation: the short hydrogen bond in crystalline urea-phosphoric acid.

Journal of the American Chemical Society

Morrison CA, Siddick MM, Camp PJ, Wilson CC.
PMID: 15771541
J Am Chem Soc. 2005 Mar 23;127(11):4042-8. doi: 10.1021/ja043327z.

The dynamics of the intermolecular short hydrogen bond in the molecular complex of urea and phosphoric acid are investigated using plane-wave density functional theory. Results indicate migration of the proton toward the center of the hydrogen bond as temperature...

Structural isotope effects in metal hydrides and deuterides.

Physical chemistry chemical physics : PCCP

Ting VP, Henry PF, Kohlmann H, Wilson CC, Weller MT.
PMID: 20165756
Phys Chem Chem Phys. 2010 Mar 07;12(9):2083-8. doi: 10.1039/b914135a. Epub 2010 Jan 15.

Historically the extraction of high-quality crystallographic information from inorganic samples having high hydrogen contents, such as metal hydrides, has involved preparing deuterated samples prior to study using neutron powder diffraction. We demonstrate, through direct comparison of the crystal structure...

Experimental and theoretical charge density study of polymorphic isonicotinamide-oxalic acid molecular complexes with strong O...H...N hydrogen bonds.

The journal of physical chemistry. A

Schmidtmann M, Farrugia LJ, Middlemiss DS, Gutmann MJ, McIntyre GJ, Wilson CC.
PMID: 19921832
J Phys Chem A. 2009 Dec 17;113(50):13985-97. doi: 10.1021/jp9067813.

Two polymorphs of the 2:1 molecular complex of isonicotinamide and oxalic acid have been characterized by combined X-ray charge density and single-crystal neutron diffraction studies at 100 K. Both polymorphs show strong O-H...N intermolecular hydrogen bonding between the acid...

Synthesis of a novel heptacoordinated Fe(III) dinuclear complex: experimental and theoretical study of the magnetic properties.

Dalton transactions (Cambridge, England : 2003)

Craig GA, Barrios LA, Sánchez Costa J, Roubeau O, Ruiz E, Teat SJ, Wilson CC, Thomas L, Aromí G.
PMID: 21491658
Dalton Trans. 2010 May 28;39(20):4874-81. doi: 10.1039/b927032a.

A new functionalized bis-pyrazol-pyridine ligand has been prepared by reaction with hydrazine of the corresponding bis-β-diketone precursor, also unprecedented. The aerobic reaction of this ligand with ferrous thiocyanate in the presence of ascorbic or oxalic acid affords the dinuclear...

Crystallography of hydrogen-containing compounds: realizing the potential of neutron powder diffraction.

Chemical communications (Cambridge, England)

Hydrogen forms more compounds than any other element in the Periodic Table, yet methods for accurately, precisely and rapidly determining its position in a crystal structure are not readily available. The latest generation of high-flux neutron powder diffractometers, operating...

Sonographic evaluation of the immediate effects of eccentric heel drop exercise on Achilles tendon and gastrocnemius muscle stiffness using shear wave elastography.

BACKGROUND: Mechanical loading is crucial for muscle and tendon tissue remodeling. Eccentric heel drop exercise has been proven to be effective in the management of Achilles tendinopathy, yet its induced change in the mechanical property (i.e., stiffness) of the...

Unintended Demographic Bias in GPA/DAT-Based Pre-Admission Screening: An Argument for Holistic Admissions in Dental Schools.

Journal of dental education

Chaviano-Moran R, Chuck E, Perez H.

INTRODUCTION: Degludec (IDeg) is an ultralong-acting insulin, with stable pharmacodynamic profile which leads to lower fluctuations in glucose levels. The effect of IDeg has not been specifically assessed in patients with unstable diabetes, defined as increased glycemic variability (GV).METHODS:...
