Association between homocysteine level and intima-media thickness in patients with first ischemic stroke
(UNIVERSITATSVERLAG ULM GMBH, 2005)
Objective - Elevated plasma homocysteine may be a causal risk factor for atherosclerosis but this remains controversial. We evaluated the relationship between intima-media thickness of carotid arteries and plasma level of ...
Assessment of some important anatomical variations and dangerous areas of the paranasal sinuses by computed tomography in children
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2000)
The purpose of this study is to determine important variations and areas of risk for major complications in paranasal computed tomography (CT). We also made specific measurements for individual differences. This study ...
Broadband staircase quantum well infrared photodetector with low dark current
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2006)
We present a theoretical investigation of a novel staircase-like quantum well infrared photodetector (QWIP). It detects wavelengths between 8.8 mu m and 12.3 mu m at an applied electric field of F= 6 x 10(4) V/cm at room ...
