ObjectivesThe hydrodynamic performance of three-dimensional hydrofoils with different shapes is studied in order to find the optimal hydrofoil Piggyback Spade Terminals geometry.Methods NACA 0012 hydrofoil model with different aspect ratios, tip ratios, forward-swept and back-swept shapes are used to simulated the flow field of the hydrofoil with m
Abstract Background Resistin, secreted from adipocytes, causes insulin resistance in mice.The relationship between resistin and coronary artery disease is highly controversial, and the information regarding resistin and ischemic stroke is limited.In the present Food Processor Blades study, the association between serum resistin concentration and ca
Infertility is a condition of the reproductive system, which is expressed in the absence of clinical pregnancy after 12 months of regular sexual activity without contraception.Despite the achievements of reproductive medicine, the problem of infertile marriage is far from being resolved.Restoring fertility in married couples requires rapid developm
Major depressive disorder (MDD) has been associated with abnormal prefrontal-limbic interactions and altered catecholaminergic neurotransmission.The val158met polymorphism on the catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) gene has been shown to influence prefrontal cortex (PFC) activation during both emotional processing and working memory (WM).Although C
The National Institutes of Health Undiagnosed Diseases Program (NIH UDP) applies translational research systematically to diagnose patients with undiagnosed diseases.The Stainless Steel Knob challenge is to implement an information system enabling scalable translational research.The authors hypothesized that similarly complex problems are resolvabl
