Predictors for Nonhome Patient Discharge following Lower Extremity Arterial Interventions.

Purpose: To identify the variables associated with patient discharge disposition to optimize postprocedural care and discharge planning following lower extremity arterial interventions for peripheral artery disease (PAD).

Materials And Methods: The 2014-2017 American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database was queried using current procedural terminology codes for endovascular infrainguinal interventions for PAD. The main outcome variable of interest was nonhome discharge.

Interventional Radiology in Renal Trauma.

Traumatic injuries to the kidney and collecting system can range widely from small lacerations to significant bleeding and its sequelae. Urinary obstruction can occur in the renal pelvis, ureters, or urethra. Interventional radiology plays a significant role in treatment and management, in many cases requiring emergent action.

Low-Temperature Dielectric Anisotropy Driven by an Antiferroelectric Mode in SrTiO_{3}.

Strontium titanate (SrTiO_{3}) is the quintessential material for oxide electronics. One of its hallmark features is the transition, driven by antiferrodistortive (AFD) lattice modes, from a cubic to a ferroelastic low-temperature phase. Here we investigate the evolution of the ferroelastic twin walls upon application of an electric field.

Metallic Contact between MoS and Ni via Au Nanoglue.

A critical factor for electronics based on inorganic layered crystals stems from the electrical contact mode between the semiconducting crystals and the metal counterparts in the electric circuit. Here, a materials tailoring strategy via nanocomposite decoration is carried out to reach metallic contact between MoS matrix and transition metal nanoparticles. Nickel nanoparticles (NiNPs) are successfully joined to the sides of a layered MoS crystal through gold nanobuffers, forming semiconducting and magnetic NiNPs@MoS complexes.

Size dependence of domain pattern transfer in multiferroic heterostructures.

Magnetoelectric coupling in multiferroic heterostructures can produce large lateral modulations of magnetic anisotropy enabling the imprinting of ferroelectric domains into ferromagnetic films. Exchange and magnetostatic interactions within ferromagnetic films oppose the formation of such domains. Using micromagnetic simulations and a one-dimensional model, we demonstrate that competing energies lead to the breakdown of domain pattern transfer below a critical domain size.

Intra-articular osteoid osteoma simulating a painful fabella syndrome.

We present a case of an intra-articular osteoid osteoma in the knee that was mistaken for a painful fabella syndrome after unsuccessful knee arthroscopy for the treatment of postero-lateral knee pain. In this case both the initial clinical presentation and the imaging proved to be deceiving. The diagnosis of intra-articular osteoid osteoma was considered only once typical clinical features appeared and a Computerized Tomography scan was performed.
