The development of radio-frequency integrated circuits (RF-IC) necessitates higher requirements for the size of microtransformers. This paper describes millimeter-scale 3D transformers in millimeter-scale, solenoidal, and toroidal transformers manufactured using Micro-electromechanical Systems (MEMS). Two through-silicon via (TSV) copper coils with a high aspect ratio are precisely interleaved on a reserved air core (magnet core cavity) with a vertical height of over 1 mm because of the thickness of the substrate, which increases the performance while reducing the footprint.

Objectives: Acute Stanford type A aortic dissection is an extremely dangerous and life-threatening cardiovascular disease, usually treated with extracorporeal circulation heart surgery. Histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate (HTK) cardioplegia is a protective intracellular myocardial fluid that has been used extensively in different types of extracorporeal circulation surgeries. Del Nido cardioplegia is an extracellular myocardial protection fluid, which was first used in pediatric heart surgery and has been gradually used in a variety of pediatric and adult heart procedures.

Methods: Raw data of GSE47472, GSE57691, and GSE98278 were downloaded.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the regulatory mechanism of miR-450a-2-3p in myocardial fibrosis in patients with atrial fibrillation. For this purpose, the expression profile of GSE55296 was extracted from the GEO database, and differentially expressed lncRNAs were identified. Gene ontology analysis of the target genes of mir-450a-2-3p indicated that there was a regulatory relationship between LINC00636 and miR-450a-2-3p.

However, there is little clinical evidence in regard to whether preoperative biopsy increases the risk of recurrence in completely resected NSCLC.
Patients And Methods: A total of 322 patients diagnosed as pathological stage I NSCLC using intraoperative biopsy (IOB) (control group), preoperative percutaneous needle biopsy (PNB) or bronchoscopic biopsy were included in this study.
