PURPOSE: To determine the impact of a grid based Boltzmann solver (GBBS) on a cohort of cervical cancer patients treated with Ir-192 intracavitary brachytherapy with shielded applicators.METHODS: Retrospective plans were generated using BrachyVision v8.8 (TPS) with GBBS Acuros v1.3.1....

Response of Resistant and Susceptible Bell Pepper (Capsicum annuum) to a Southern California Meloidogyne incognita Population from a Commercial Bell Pepper Field.

Journal of nematology

Aguiar JL, Bachie O, Ploeg A.
PMID: 25580027
J Nematol. 2014 Dec;46(4):346-51.

To determine the presence and level of root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne spp.) infestation in Southern California bell pepper (Capsicum annuum) fields, soil and root samples were collected in April and May 2012 and analyzed for the presence of root-knot nematodes....

Combined epimerisation and acylation: Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley-Oppenauer catalysts in action.

Organic & biomolecular chemistry

Klomp D, Djanashvili K, Svennum NC, Chantapariyavat N, Wong CS, Vilela F, Maschmeyer T, Peters JA, Hanefeld U.
PMID: 15678186
Org Biomol Chem. 2005 Feb 07;3(3):483-9. doi: 10.1039/b413944e. Epub 2004 Dec 17.

A practical racemisation-epimerisation method for chiral secondary alcohols has been developed. Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley-Oppenauer catalysts such as neodymium(III) isopropoxide are able to racemise these alcohols with retention of other stereocentres in the molecule. This is particularly useful for the recycling of...

Transformation optics for plasmonics.

Nano letters

Huidobro PA, Nesterov ML, Martín-Moreno L, García-Vidal FJ.
PMID: 20465271
Nano Lett. 2010 Jun 09;10(6):1985-90. doi: 10.1021/nl100800c.

A new strategy to control the flow of surface plasmon polaritons at metallic surfaces is presented. It is based on the application of the concept of transformation optics to devise the optical parameters of the dielectric medium placed on...

The potential of five winter-grown crops to reduce root-knot nematode damage and increase yield of tomato.

Journal of nematology

López-Pérez JA, Roubtsova T, de Cara García M, Ploeg A.
PMID: 22736848
J Nematol. 2010 Jun;42(2):120-7.

Broccoli (Brassica oleracea), carrot (Daucus carota), marigold (Tagetes patula), nematode-resistant tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), and strawberry (Fragaria ananassa) were grown for three years during the winter in a root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita) infested field in Southern California. Each year in...

Measuring quality of diabetes care by linking health care system administrative databases with laboratory data.

BMC research notes

Klomp H, Dyck RF, Sidhu N, Cascagnette PJ, Teare GF.
PMID: 20807443
BMC Res Notes. 2010 Aug 31;3:233. doi: 10.1186/1756-0500-3-233.

BACKGROUND: Chronic complications of diabetes can be reduced through optimal glycemic and lipid control as evaluated through measurement of glycosylated hemoglobin (A1C) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). We aimed to produce measures of quality of diabetes care in Saskatchewan...

Broadband Tunable THz Absorption with Singular Graphene Metasurfaces.

ACS nano

Galiffi E, Pendry JB, Huidobro PA.
PMID: 29323475
ACS Nano. 2018 Feb 27;12(2):1006-1013. doi: 10.1021/acsnano.7b07951. Epub 2018 Jan 23.

By exploiting singular spatial modulations of the graphene conductivity, we design a broadband, tunable THz absorber whose efficiency approaches the theoretical upper bound for a wide absorption band with a fractional bandwidth of 185%. Strong field enhancement is exhibited...

Positive messages enhance older adults' motivation and recognition memory for physical activity programmes.

European journal of ageing

Notthoff N, Klomp P, Doerwald F, Scheibe S.
PMID: 28804382
Eur J Ageing. 2016 Mar 09;13(3):251-257. doi: 10.1007/s10433-016-0368-1. eCollection 2016 Sep.

Although physical activity is an effective way to cope with ageing-related impairments, few older people are motivated to turn their sedentary lifestyle into an active one. Recent evidence suggests that walking can be more effectively promoted in older adults...

Frontiers in immunology

Dekkers G, Treffers L, Plomp R, Bentlage AEH, de Boer M, Koeleman CAM, Lissenberg-Thunnissen SN, Visser R, Brouwer M, Mok JY, Matlung H, van den Berg TK, van Esch WJE, Kuijpers TW, Wouters D, Rispens T, Wuhrer M, Vidarsson G.

Front Immunol. 2017 Aug 02;8:877. doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2017.00877. eCollection 2017.

Glycosylation of the immunoglobulin G (IgG)-Fc tail is required for binding to Fc-gamma receptors (FcγRs) and complement-component C1q. A variety of IgG1-glycoforms is detected in human sera. Several groups have found global or antigen-specific skewing of IgG glycosylation, for...

Spondylolysis and spinal adaptations for bipedalism: The overshoot hypothesis.

Evolution, medicine, and public health

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The study reported here focused on the aetiology of spondylolysis, a vertebral pathology usually caused by a fatigue fracture. The goal was to test the Overshoot Hypothesis, which proposes that people develop spondylolysis because their vertebral...

Scientific reports

Harti RP, Valsecchi J, Trtik P, Mannes D, Carminati C, Strobl M, Plomp J, Duif CP, Grünzweig C.
PMID: 30552389
Sci Rep. 2018 Dec 14;8(1):17845. doi: 10.1038/s41598-018-35845-y.

Structural properties of cohesive powders are dominated by their microstructural composition. Powders with a fractal microstructure show particularly interesting properties during compaction where a microstructural transition and a fractal breakdown happen before compaction and force transport. The study of...
