Simple calculation of ab initio melting curves: Application to aluminum.

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

Robert G, Legrand P, Arnault P, Desbiens N, Clérouin J.
PMID: 25871249
Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys. 2015 Mar;91(3):033310. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevE.91.033310. Epub 2015 Mar 26.

We present a simple, fast, and promising method to compute the melting curves of materials with ab initio molecular dynamics. It is based on the two-phase thermodynamic model of Lin et al [J. Chem. Phys. 119, 11792 (2003)] and...

Water condensation in hydrophobic silicalite-1 zeolite: a molecular simulation study.

The journal of physical chemistry. B

Desbiens N, Boutin A, Demachy I.
PMID: 16375399
J Phys Chem B. 2005 Dec 22;109(50):24071-6. doi: 10.1021/jp054168o.

We report grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations of the gas and liquid phase adsorption of water in silicalite-1 zeolite. Simple but effective models and simulation methods, found useful for studying gas adsorption in nanoporous materials, have been extended to...

Fast line-shape correction procedure for imaging Fourier-transform spectrometers.

Applied optics

Roy SA, Potvin S, Genest J, Desbiens R.
PMID: 17609714
Appl Opt. 2007 Jul 20;46(21):4674-9. doi: 10.1364/ao.46.004674.

An instrument line-shape correction method adapted to imaging Fourier-transform spectrometers is demonstrated. The method calibrates all pixels on the same spectral grid and permits a direct comparison of the spectral features between pixels such as emission or absorption lines....

Canadian supportive care recommendations for the management of neutropenia in patients with cancer.

Current oncology (Toronto, Ont.)

Kouroukis CT, Chia S, Verma S, Robson D, Desbiens C, Cripps C, Mikhael J.
PMID: 18317581
Curr Oncol. 2008 Jan;15(1):9-23. doi: 10.3747/co.2008.198.

Hematologic toxicities of cancer chemotherapy are common and often limit the ability to provide treatment in a timely and dose-intensive manner. These limitations may be of utmost importance in the adjuvant and curative intent settings. Hematologic toxicities may result...

Primary breast angiosarcoma: avoiding a common trap.

Case reports in oncological medicine

Desbiens C, Hogue JC, Lévesque Y.
PMID: 22611503
Case Rep Oncol Med. 2011;2011:517047. doi: 10.1155/2011/517047. Epub 2011 Jul 06.

Background. Primary breast angiosarcoma is a rare entity. Case. Initial diagnosis was a benign hemangioma at core biopsy. Wide local excision was performed, with positive margins. Pathology after surgery reported a moderately differentiated angiosarcoma. Tumor was finally treated using...

Deep learning models for COVID-19 chest x-ray classification: Preventing shortcut learning using feature disentanglement.

medRxiv : the preprint server for health sciences

Robinson C, Trivedi A, Blazes M, Ortiz A, Desbiens J, Gupta S, Dodhia R, Bhatraju PK, Liles WC, Lee A, Kalpathy-Cramer J, Lavista Ferres JM.
PMID: 33594382
medRxiv. 2021 Feb 13; doi: 10.1101/2021.02.11.20196766.

In response to the COVID-19 global pandemic, recent research has proposed creating deep learning based models that use chest radiographs (CXRs) in a variety of clinical tasks to help manage the crisis. However, the size of existing datasets of...

Radiometry in line-shape modeling of Fourier-transform spectrometers.

Applied optics

Desbiens R, Genest J, Tremblay P.
PMID: 11900023
Appl Opt. 2002 Mar 01;41(7):1424-32. doi: 10.1364/ao.41.001424.

A radiometric model of the instrument line shape (ILS) of Fourier-transform spectrometers is presented. We show first that common line-shape models are based on distribution of the radiant intensity in the interferometer. The complete steps between the source and...

Characterization and correction of spectral distortions induced by microvibrations onboard the GOSAT Fourier transform spectrometer.

Applied optics

Suto H, Yoshida J, Desbiens R, Kawashima T, Kuze A.
PMID: 23852213
Appl Opt. 2013 Jul 10;52(20):4969-80. doi: 10.1364/AO.52.004969.

Microvibrations onboard greenhouse gases observing satellite (GOSAT) cause scan speed variations in the TANSO Fourier transform spectrometer. The associated periodic sampling errors generate ghost features in O2 A-band spectra, where surface pressure and aerosol properties are retrieved to determine...

Is clinical breast examination important for breast cancer detection?.

Current oncology (Toronto, Ont.)

Provencher L, Hogue JC, Desbiens C, Poirier B, Poirier E, Boudreau D, Joyal M, Diorio C, Duchesne N, Chiquette J.
PMID: 27536182
Curr Oncol. 2016 Aug;23(4):e332-9. doi: 10.3747/co.23.2881. Epub 2016 Aug 12.

BACKGROUND: Screening clinical breast examination (cbe) is controversial; the use of cbe is declining not only as a screening tool, but also as a diagnostic tool. In the present study, we aimed to assess the value of cbe in...

Evidence of Antibacterial Activities in Peptide Fractions Originating from Snow Crab (Chionoecetes opilio) By-Products.

Probiotics and antimicrobial proteins

Beaulieu L, Thibodeau J, Desbiens M, Saint-Louis R, Zatylny-Gaudin C, Thibault S.

Antibacterial peptide fractions generated via proteolytic processing of snow crab by-products exhibited activity against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. Among the bacterial strains tested, peptide fractions demonstrated inhibitory activity against the Gram-negative bacteria such as Aeromonas caviae, Aeromonas hydrophila, Campylobacter...
