Article Abstract
In this work, we demonstrate a simple and reliable method for selectively separating single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). This method is based on a preferable adsorption of linear polynuclear aromatic dyes on metallic SWNTs. With different adsorption amount of soluble dyes, the metallic and semconducting SWNTs show different solubility in solvents, hence can be separated. The types of the obtained SWNTs and the separative efficiency using different dyes have been studied using Raman spectroscopy. It was found that the polynuclear molecules with more benzene rings show higher selectivity. Meanwhile, the separative efficiency is also sensitive to the choice of solvents.
Objectives: The enormous burden that cardiovascular diseases put on individuals and societies warrants reliable biomarkers of disease risk to optimize disease prevention. We studied longitudinal movement (LMov) in arterial walls using ultrasound of the common carotid artery (CCA). We believe that LMov could be a sensitive biomarker of cardiovascular health and in this study, we evaluate the intra-observer repeatability and inter-observer precision of our method.
This study retrospectively evaluated the computed tomography (CT) findings of idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease (iMCD) at a single center and compared the CT findings of iMCD-TAFRO with those of iMCD-non-TAFRO. CT images obtained within 30 days before diagnostic confirmation were reviewed for 20 patients with iMCD (8 men and 12 women, mean age 52.8 ± 12.

Aortic dissection (AD) represents a critical condition characterised by a tear in the inner lining of the aorta, leading to the leakage of blood into the layers of the aortic wall, posing a significant risk to life. However, the pathogenesis is unclear. In this study, scRNA-seq was applied to cells derived from aortas of both AD and non-AD donors (control) to unveil the cellular landscape.
Objective: To report a rare case of multiple subserous uterine adenomyomas diagnosed and treated by laparoscopy.
Case Report: A premenopausal 55-year-old woman was admitted presenting with bilateral adnexal cysts. Preoperative ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging both indicated a right ovarian cyst.
Purpose: This study was aimed to compare the difference between iRoot SP and AH Plus on root canal sealing ability for teeth extracted due to severe periodontitis and explore whether the dentin tubule pathway plays an important role in the development of endodontic-periodontic lesions(EPL), in order to provide a theoretical basis for selection of proper time for root canal therapy and suitable root canal sealants in patients with EPL.
Methods: Fifty single-root anterior teeth extracted due to severe periodontitis were selected. The roots were completely debrided to remove the calculus, dental plaque and cementum.
