We propose and theoretically investigate an all-dielectric bowtie whisperinggallery-mode (WGM) resonator which consists of two tip-to-tip coupled semiconductor nanorings with triangular cross section separated by low refractive index material gap.Mode splitting of symmetric WGM and antisymmetric WGM is observed and analyzed.Due to extremely field e
Although retrograde in situ branched stent grafting (RIBS) is one possible treatment option for thoracic aortic aneurysms, concerns exist regarding the durability of the stent graft (SG) Twin/Full Bunk Bed at the junction between the main SG and the branched SG.We report on the autopsy results of a patient treated with RIBS for a complex aortic arc
Abstract Background Physical protein-protein interaction (PPI) is a critical phenomenon for the function of most proteins in living organisms and a significant fraction Pool Floats of PPIs are the result of domain-domain interactions.Exon shuffling, intron-mediated recombination of exons from existing genes, is known to have been a major mechanism
Movement is the enemy of camouflage: most attempts at concealment are disrupted by motion of the target.Faced with this problem, navies in both World Wars in the twentieth century painted their warships with high contrast geometric patterns: so-called "dazzle camouflage".Rather than attempting to hide individual units, it was claimed that this patt
Abstract Background The purpose of our study was to describe and evaluate management, performance and results of Tuberculosis (TB)-screening among refugees and asylum seekers in a rural area in Germany in 2015.Methods Refugees or asylum seekers, staying in shared-accommodation are obligated to participate on screening chest X-ray (CXR) in order to
