Displacement encoding with stimulated echoes (DENSE) with a low encoding strength phase-cycled meta-DENSE readout and a two fold SENSE acceleration (R = 2) is described. This combination reduces total breath-hold times for increased patient comfort during cardiac regional myocardial contractility studies. Images from phantoms, normal volunteers, and a patient are provided to demonstrate the SENSE-DENSE combination of methods. The overall breath-hold time is halved while preserving strain map quality.

Background: The orexin/hypocretin neuropeptide system, primarily found in the lateral hypothalamus and perifornical region, modulates sleep, wakefulness, appetite, and cognitive function. One region with dense orexinergic projections is the basal forebrain (BF), which is the major source of acetylcholine in the neocortex and limbic structures such as the hippocampus. The basal forebrain cholinergic system mediates cognition and dysfunction is one of the key hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease.

Herein, a supramolecular DNA nanodevice was formed via the rolling circle amplification (RCA) and hybridization chain reaction (HCR) cascade reaction on a tetrahedral DNA nanostructure (TDN) to achieve simultaneous sensitive detection and intracellular imaging of dual-miRNAs related to liver cancer. The supramolecular DNA nanodevice effectively addressed the limitations of low probe loading capacity in traditional TDN nanodevices by enriching plenty of signal probes around a single TDN, significantly enhancing the fluorescence signal. Impressively, the supramolecular DNA nanodevice with a TDN fulcrum and dense DNA structure imparted the nanodevice with strong rigidity, ensuring the stability of the signal probes to decrease aggregation quenching for further increasing the fluorescence response.

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technology has attracted more and more attention due to its high sensitivity, low water interference, and quick measurement. Constructing high-performance SERS substrates with high sensitivity, uniformity and reproducibility is of great importance to put the SERS technology into practical application. In this paper, we report a simple fabrication process to construct dense silver-coated PMMA nanoparticles-on-a-mirror SRES substrates.

Background: Highways represent the most significant capital asset that any country's public sector holds. A system of national highways with easy access to ambulance and trauma centers is termed emergency rescue ready and helps reduce the mortality due to road accidents. Given the rich impetus for road infrastructure development by the government of India, there is a need to consider emergency rescue readiness on highways.

Unlabelled: Lymphedema is a chronic disabling disease that affects 250 million people worldwide. To this date, it has been proven that treatment of this category of patients should be truly integrated - combining surgical, therapeutic methods and recovery procedures.
Objective: To study the influence of intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) on microvasculature in patients with lymphedema of the lower extremities.
