BACKGROUND: This report details the experience of a multidisciplinary surgical team in the management of stage III and stage IV renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with concomitant inferior vena cava (IVC) tumor thrombus.METHODS: A retrospective inquiry of our vascular database...

Catheter-based or surgical repair of the highest risk secondary mitral regurgitation patients.

Annals of cardiothoracic surgery

Arsalan M, Squiers JJ, DiMaio JM, Mack MJ.
PMID: 26309831
Ann Cardiothorac Surg. 2015 May;4(3):278-83. doi: 10.3978/j.issn.2225-319X.2015.05.02.

Surgical mitral valve repair (MVR) remains the standard of care for patients with severe valve incompetence with clear, proven benefit for patients with primary mitral regurgitation (MR). Secondary MR is a primary disease of the left ventricular (LV) myocardium....

Effect of Atorvastatin on Growth Differentiation Factor-15 in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Dyslipidemia.

Diabetes & metabolism journal

Kim JM, Back MK, Yi HS, Joung KH, Kim HJ, Ku BJ.
PMID: 26616597
Diabetes Metab J. 2016 Feb;40(1):70-8. doi: 10.4093/dmj.2016.40.1.70.

BACKGROUND: Elevated serum levels of growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15) are associated with type 2 diabetes. Therefore, the effects of atorvastatin on metabolic parameters and GDF-15 levels in patients with type 2 diabetes and dyslipidemia were evaluated.METHODS: In this prospective...

Plant functional types do not predict biomass responses to removal and fertilization in Alaskan tussock tundra.

The Journal of ecology

Bret-Harte MS, Mack MC, Goldsmith GR, Sloan DB, Demarco J, Shaver GR, Ray PM, Biesinger Z, Chapin FS.
PMID: 18784797
J Ecol. 2008 Jul;96(4):713-726. doi: 10.1111/j.1365-2745.2008.01378.x.

Plant communities in natural ecosystems are changing and species are being lost due to anthropogenic impacts including global warming and increasing nitrogen (N) deposition. We removed dominant species, combinations of species and entire functional types from Alaskan tussock tundra,...

Thermal fluctuation statistics in a molecular motor described by a multidimensional master equation.

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

Challis KJ, Jack MW.
PMID: 24483415
Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys. 2013 Dec;88(6):062136. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevE.88.062136. Epub 2013 Dec 23.

We present a theoretical investigation of thermal fluctuation statistics in a molecular motor. Energy transfer in the motor is described using a multidimensional discrete master equation with nearest-neighbor hopping. In this theory, energy transfer leads to statistical correlations between...

Studying real-world perceptual expertise.

Frontiers in psychology

Shen J, Mack ML, Palmeri TJ.
PMID: 25147533
Front Psychol. 2014 Aug 06;5:857. doi: 10.3389/fpsyg.2014.00857. eCollection 2014.

Significant insights into visual cognition have come from studying real-world perceptual expertise. Many have previously reviewed empirical findings and theoretical developments from this work. Here we instead provide a brief perspective on approaches, considerations, and challenges to studying real-world...

Neochordae implantation made easy with an adjustable device: early report of acute and chronic animal experiments.

Innovations (Philadelphia, Pa.)

Maisano F, Denti P, Vanermen HK, Seeburger J, Falk V, Mohr FW, Mack MJ, Alfieri OR.
PMID: 22437459
Innovations (Phila). 2010 Jul-Aug;5(4):287-90. doi: 10.1097/IMI.0b013e3181ee865d.

OBJECTIVE: Neochordae implantation is a well-established surgical solution for the treatment of mitral valve prolapse. The main limitation to wide usage of the technique has been the difficulty associated with accurate determination of neochordal length. We describe a system...

Absence of superconductivity in LiCu2P2.

Journal of the American Chemical Society

Han F, Zhu X, Mu G, Zeng B, Cheng P, Shen B, Wen HH.
PMID: 21265510
J Am Chem Soc. 2011 Feb 16;133(6):1751-3. doi: 10.1021/ja108515f. Epub 2011 Jan 25.

We successfully synthesized the copper-based pnictide LiCu(2)P(2), which was reported as a superconductor with T(c) = 3.7 K before. The temperature dependence of resistivity and DC magnetization was measured on both polycrystalline and single-crystalline LiCu(2)P(2). However, our repeatable synthesizing...

The timing of visual object categorization.

Frontiers in psychology

Mack ML, Palmeri TJ.
PMID: 21811480
Front Psychol. 2011 Jul 15;2:165. doi: 10.3389/fpsyg.2011.00165. eCollection 2011.

AN OBJECT CAN BE CATEGORIZED AT DIFFERENT LEVELS OF ABSTRACTION: as natural or man-made, animal or plant, bird or dog, or as a Northern Cardinal or Pyrrhuloxia. There has been growing interest in understanding how quickly categorizations at different...

Self-induced temperature gradients in Brownian dynamics.

Physical review. E

Devine J, Jack MW.
PMID: 29347298
Phys Rev E. 2017 Dec;96(6):062130. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevE.96.062130. Epub 2017 Dec 18.

Brownian systems often surmount energy barriers by absorbing and emitting heat to and from their local environment. Usually, the temperature gradients created by this heat exchange are assumed to dissipate instantaneously. Here we relax this assumption to consider the...

Local discretization method for overdamped Brownian motion on a potential with multiple deep wells.

Physical review. E

Nguyen PT, Challis KJ, Jack MW.
PMID: 27967196
Phys Rev E. 2016 Nov;94(5):052127. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevE.94.052127. Epub 2016 Nov 17.

We present a general method for transforming the continuous diffusion equation describing overdamped Brownian motion on a time-independent potential with multiple deep wells to a discrete master equation. The method is based on an expansion in localized basis states...
