Recently, metal on metal hip prostheses have been revived following excellent clinical results.However, the risk of wear diseases has not been removed yet.Fluid film formation is necessary for long term reliability of a total hip prosthesis because solid contact of the prosthesis induces serious wear.However, the fluid film can be only formed under
Elucidating protonation pathways in CO2 photoreduction using the kinetic isotope effect
Abstract The surge in anthropogenic CO2 emissions from fossil fuel dependence demands innovative solutions, Womens tights such as artificial photosynthesis, to convert CO2 into value-added products.Unraveling the CO2 photoreduction mechanism at the molecular level is vital for developing high-performance photocatalysts.Here we show kinetic isotope
The Geography of Social Media Data in Urban Areas: Representativeness and Complementarity
This research sheds light on the relationship between the presence of location-based social network (LBSN) data and other economic and demographic variables in the city of Valencia (Spain).For that purpose, a comparison is made between location patterns of geolocated data from various social networks (i.e., Google Places, Foursquare, Twitter, Airbn
Cryopreservation of Parathyroid Glands
The risk of permanent hypoparathyroidism following thyroid and parathyroid surgery is around 1% in the hands of experienced endocrine surgeons.Although this complication is Womens tights rare, rendering a patient permanently aparathyroid has significant consequences on the health and quality of life of the patient.Immediate autotransplantation of p
Runx family genes in a cartilaginous fish, the elephant shark (Callorhinchus milii).
The Runx family genes encode transcription factors that play key roles in hematopoiesis, skeletogenesis and neurogenesis and are often implicated in diseases.We describe here the cloning and characterization of Runx1, Runx2, Runx3 and Runxb genes in the elephant shark (Callorhinchus milii), a member of Chondrichthyes, the oldest living group of jaw
