Perpendicular magnetic anisotropy and interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction in as grown and annealed X/Co/Y ultrathin systems.

The perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) and the interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (iDMI) are investigated in as grown and 300 °C annealed Co-based ultrathin systems. For this, Co films of various thicknesses (0.8 nm ⩽ t ⩽ 5.

Adipose Tissue Graft Improves Early but not Late Stages of Nerve Regeneration.

Aim: The aim of the study was to assess the effect of autologous fat graft on nerve regeneration by means of immunohistochemistry.

Materials And Methods: The rat sciatic nerve was used; complete transection followed by primary neurorrhaphy was performed on both hind legs, on the left side a processed fat graft was applied, surrounding the nerve. Nerve biopsies were collected and immunohistochemical procedures were performed for glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and for neurofilament-associated protein(NFAP).

Programmatic impact of 5 years of mortality surveillance of New York City homeless populations.

A homeless mortality surveillance system identifies emerging trends in the health of the homeless population and provides this information to key stakeholders in a timely and ongoing manner to effect evidence-based, programmatic change. We describe the first 5 years of the New York City homeless mortality surveillance system and, for the first time in peer-reviewed literature, illustrate the impact of key elements of sustained surveillance (i.e.
