A blueprint for truncation resonance placement in elastic diatomic lattices with unit cell asymmetrya).

Elastic periodic lattices act as mechanical filters of incident vibrations. By and large, they forbid wave propagation within bandgaps and resonate outside them. However, they often encounter "truncation resonances" (TRs) inside bandgaps when certain conditions are met.

Idiopathic steno-occlusive disease with bilateral internal carotid artery occlusion: A Case Report.

Background: Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a rare cause of acute stroke and transient ischemic attacks in children. We described clinical, diagnostic features and follow-ups of a young child with acute stroke.

Case Summary: We report a 4-year-old girl with left hemiparesis after an acute ischemic stroke.

Diagnostic Role of RASSF1A and p16INK4a Promoter Gene Hypermethylation in Serum DNA of Lung Cancer Patients: Clinicopathological Significance.

The most common inactivation mechanism of tumor suppressor genes, RASSF1A and p16INK4a, in lung cancer is hypermethylation. We detected the methylation status of RASSF1A and p16INK4a in serum of lung cancer patients using methylation-specific PCR and analyzed their clinicopathological significance. Each of RASSF1A and p16INK4a hypermethylation was detected in 31.
