Objective: To explore whether there exist undiscovered transphyseal vasculature-canal compound structures in immature femurs and tibias, and reveal their potential oncological impact.

Methods: This investigation was divided into a morphological study and a clinical study. In the morphological part, a new-identified anatomic structure was investigated by using radiographical, anatomical, and histological methodologies.

In modern ion implanters, a plasma flood gun (PFG) is used to neutralize wafer charge during the doping process, preventing the breakdown of floating wafers caused by the space charge accumulation. Typically, there are two kinds of PFGs, namely, dc arc discharge with filament and RF discharge. As a PFG, the filament one has limited lifetime and cannot avoid metallic contamination because of the thermal emitting filament.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to investigate the levels of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) antibodies in patients with cerebral infarction, especially those with hypertension, to understand their role in brain tissue damage.
  • One hundred patients were analyzed for HSP70 antibody levels using advanced testing techniques, with a comparison to healthy controls.
  • Results showed a significantly higher presence of HSP70 antibodies in cerebral infarction patients, particularly those with hypertension, suggesting that elevated HSP70 antibodies may correlate with the severity of brain damage.
