Breast cancer, a heterogeneous disease with variable pathophysiology and biology, is classified into four major subtypes. While hormonal- and antibody-targeted therapies are effective in the patients with luminal and HER-2 subtypes, the patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) subtype...

Comparing baseline and longitudinal measures in association studies.

BMC Proc. 2014 Jun 17;8:S84. doi: 10.1186/1753-6561-8-S1-S84. eCollection 2014.

In recent years, longitudinal family-based studies have had success in identifying genetic variants that influence complex traits in genome-wide association studies. In this paper, we suggest that longitudinal analyses may contain valuable information that can enable identification of additional...

The Pro12Ala polymorphism in the PPAR-γ2 gene is not associated to obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus in a Cameroonian population.

BACKGROUND: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma 2 (PPAR-γ2) is a transcription factor with a key role in adipocyte differentiation, lipid storage and glucose homeostasis. The Ala allele of the common Pro12Ala polymorphism in the isoform PPAR-γ2 is at the center...

Single-mode transflective liquid crystal display tailored for wide-band single gamma curve.

Optics express

PMID: 18958088
Opt Express. 2008 Oct 27;16(22):18102-8. doi: 10.1364/oe.16.018102.

This paper proposes a single cell gap transflective patterned vertically aligned liquid crystal mode with the same gamma curve for both reflective and transmissive operation. The gamma curve of the proposed transflective mode is obtained by tuning the chevron-type...

Theory of anchoring on a two-dimensionally grooved surface.

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

We investigate analytically the anchoring of a nematic liquid crystal on a two-dimensionally grooved surface of arbitrary shape, induced by the elastic distortions of a liquid crystal adjacent to the surface. Our theoretical framework applied to a surface with...

Conduction mechanisms and stability of single molecule nanoparticle/molecule/nanoparticle junctions.

Nanotechnology

Na JS, Ayres J, Chandra KL, Chu C, Gorman CB, Parsons GN.

Nanotechnology. 2007 Jan 24;18(3):035203. doi: 10.1088/0957-4484/18/3/035203. Epub 2007 Jan 03.

Nanoparticle/molecule/nanoparticle dimer assemblies have been successfully trapped by dielectrophoresis across nanogap electrodes, enabling temperature dependent charge transport measurements through an oligomeric phenylene ethynylene molecule, and transition from direct tunnelling to Fowler-Nordheim tunnelling is observed at approximately 1.5 V. Samples...

Single-cell gap-transflective liquid crystal display using two optical modes of a bistable liquid crystal.

Applied optics

PMID: 21460897
Appl Opt. 2011 Apr 01;50(10):1333-7. doi: 10.1364/AO.50.001333.

We present a single-cell gap-transflective liquid crystal display (LCD) characterized by a π cell having bulk-type liquid crystal (LC) bistability and an optical film configuration. The π cell has two stable states, which are a twisted and a nontwisted...

Determination of actual surface azimuthal anchoring strength using a wedge-shaped liquid crystal cell.

PMID: 20160782
Opt Lett. 2010 Feb 15;35(4):456-8. doi: 10.1364/OL.35.000456.

We present a method that determines the actual surface azimuthal anchoring strength based on the torque balance. It is found by an optical technique of measuring simultaneously the cell thicknesses and twist angles at two regions of a wedge-type...

Thyroid-stimulating hormone elevation misdiagnosed as subclinical hypothyroidism following non-convulsive status epilepticus: a case report.

Journal of medical case reports

INTRODUCTION: Non-convulsive status epilepticus is a form of epileptic seizure that occurs without convulsions. Recent reviews suggest that the diagnosis of non-convulsive status epilepticus remains difficult. Here, we report the case of a patient with thyroid-stimulating hormone elevation misdiagnosed...

A functionally separated nanoimprinting material tailored for homeotropic liquid crystal alignment.

In order to homeotropically align liquid crystals (LCs) at the nanosized surface grooves processed by nanoimprint lithography technology (NIL), we propose to design a hybrid-type homeotropic polymer material consisting of two distinct moieties with largely different thermo-mechanical properties and...
