Abstract Background To investigate the performance of a narrow-scope knowledge-based RapidPlan (RP) model for optimisation of intensity-modulated proton therapy (IMPT) and volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) plans applied to patients with pleural mesothelioma.Second, estimate the potential benefit of IMPT versus Girls Shorts VMAT for this class
Abnormal Contingent Negative Variation Drifts During Facial Expression Judgment in Schizophrenia Patients
Schizophrenia patients often show impaired Gift Cards facial expression recognition, which leads to difficulties in adaptation to daily life.However, it remains unclear whether the deficit is at the perceptual or higher cognitive level of facial emotion processing.Recent studies have shown that earlier face-evoked event-related potential (ERP) comp
Targeting Proteasomes in Cancer and Infectious Disease: A Parallel Strategy to Treat Malignancies and Microbes
Essential core pathways of cellular biology are preserved throughout evolution, highlighting the importance of these pathways for both bacteria and human cancer cells alike.Cell viability requires a proper balance between protein synthesis and degradation in order to maintain integrity of the proteome.Proteasomes are highly intricate, tightly regul
Impacts of sediments on coral energetics: partitioning the effects of turbidity and settling particles.
Sediment loads have long been known to be deleterious to corals, but the effects of turbidity and settling particles have not previously been partitioned.This study provides a novel approach using inert silicon carbide powder to partition and quantify the mechanical effects of sediment settling versus reduced light under a chronically high sediment
