PMID: 28440730
Pulm Circ. 2017 Apr-Jun;7(2):543-546. doi: 10.1177/2045893217709763. Epub 2017 May 12.

Pathological alterations of inspiratory capacity (IC) have been observed in pulmonary hypertension. However, the clinical significance of IC in operable chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) without other pulmonary diseases remains unknown. CTEPH patients scheduled for pulmonary endarterectomy were prospectively...

Laser beam filamentation in fractal aggregates.

Physical review letters

Conti C, Ghofraniha N, Ruocco G, Trillo S.
PMID: 17025967
Phys Rev Lett. 2006 Sep 22;97(12):123903. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.97.123903. Epub 2006 Sep 21.

We investigate filamentation of a cw laser beam in soft matter such as colloidal suspensions and fractal gels. The process, driven by electrostriction, is strongly affected by material properties, which are taken into account via the static structure factor,...

Validation of the Ottawa Ankle Rules in Iran: a prospective survey.

BMC emergency medicine
