Published: June 2005

Poor axial precision caused, in part, by large depth of focus (tau) has been a vexing problem in extraction of particle position from digital in-line holograms. A simple method is proposed to combat this depth-of-focus difficulty. The method is based on decoupling of size and position information. With d, Delta, and lambda being particle diameter, CCD pixel size, and the wavelength, respectively, our main theoretical result is the reduction of tau from tau - d2/lambda to tau - Delta2/lambda for particles of known size. This result is confirmed in laboratory experiments with holograms of calibrated glass spheres.

Tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) in the tumor microenvironment are prognostically beneficial in many solid cancer types. Reports on TLS in high-grade serous tubo-ovarian carcinoma (HGSC) are few, and the prognostic impact is unclear. We investigated mature TLS (mTLS), immature TLS (iTLS) and lymphoid aggregates (LA) in primary adnexal tumors (PTs) and synchronous omental/peritoneal metastases (pMets) of HGSC.

The Replicability Crisis and Human Agency in the Neo-Structured World.

Integr Psychol Behav Sci

January 2025

Department of Psychology, St. Petersburg State University, St. Petersburg, Russian Federation.

The paper analyzes current discussions concerning the so called "replicability crisis" - a notion describing difficulties in attempts to confirm existing research findings by their additional scrutiny or by new empirical studies. We propose interpretation that this "crisis" may be seen as a manifestation of the increasing inconsistency between, on the one hand, the outdated views on a human being and social structures dominating in the academic mainstream across various disciplines, including psychology and sociology, and, on the other hand, the reality of the emerging new stage of societal evolution, neo-structuration, which brings to the forefront individual agency. Our analysis suggests the possibilities for the future inter-disciplinary paradigmatic shift, which implies putting in the center of research not the idea of a constant or predictably developing individual in the context of solid external structures operating in line with a presumably sustainable "progress".

Clinical Manifestations.

Alzheimers Dement

December 2024

Winterlight Labs, Toronto, ON, Canada.

Background: Changes in the structure and use of language are well established clinical characteristics of Alzheimer's disease. In recent years, there has been a concerted effort to objectively quantify these changes using the latest advances in Natural Language Processing (NLP) tools. Much academic research has been conducted to evaluate how these speech characteristics change with the course of illness, but they have yet to be elevated beyond exploratory endpoints in trials.

Association of obesity with orbital fat expansion in thyroid eye disease.

BMC Ophthalmol

January 2025

Department of Ophthalmology, National Cheng Kung University Hospital, College of Medicine, National Cheng Kung University, No. 138, Sheng Li Road, Tainan, 704, Taiwan.

Background: To investigate the association between obesity and orbital fat expansion in proptosis of thyroid eye disease.

Methods: This observational study retrospectively enrolled 87 participants who received orbital fat decompression surgery for thyroid eye disease. Primary outcome measures included average body mass index (BMI) and the proportion of the study sample with overweight and obesity, compared with the general Taiwanese population.

With the rapid development of the digital age, in the business field, gamified marketing has been applied to practice by more and more enterprises, and has been studied by many scholars in the field of academic research. However, the existing research mainly focuses on the impact of gamification marketing activities itself on consumer behavior, and lacks the exploration of the design and mechanism of gamification marketing itself. The purpose of this paper is to find out the influence factors of gamification marketing language style on consumers' brand attitudes, and the empirical results have important theoretical significance and practical implication.
