Label-free multi-modal multiphoton imaging for real-time point-of-procedure assessment of needle biopsies
… There has been a rising concern about the time cost of the conventional histopathological assessment of the NB specimens. Therefore, a real-time point-of-procedure assessment method of NB specimens is increasingly in demand. Label-free multimodal nonlinear optical imaging (NLOI) provides a …

Evaluation of Recovery in Female Swimmers During a Competitive Season
… set at p=0.05. Results: There was a significant time effect for scores over the season (F5=4.67; P<.001) for RESTQ total. A simple contrast using the initial RESTQ-Sport as a baseline (M=9.85 ± 10.34) showed the RESTQ total was significantly less at time point 2 (F1=9.55, M=4.14 ± 10.06 P=.006) …

The Interaction between Child Behavioral Inhibition and Parenting Behaviors across Development: Effects on Adolescent Psychopathology
… and child psychopathology were gathered at each time point. Cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses were conducted to explore the moderating effect of maternal warmth and control on the relationship between child shyness and child/adolescent internalizing and externalizing symptoms. With a few …

Measurement of Pre and Postprandial Urine Calcium to Creatinine Ratio to Identify Calcium Oxalate Urolithiasis in Miniature Schnauzers
… We investigated the impact of postprandial time on the specificity of urine calcium:creatine (UCa/Cr) in identifying affected dogs. The hypotheses were: 1) Significant differences exist in fasted and postprandial UCa/Cr between urolith-forming and control schnauzers. 2) UCa/Cr increases …

Parallel Processing Techniques for the Simulation of MOS VLSI Circuits Using Waveform Relaxation
… thesis is the extent to which the overall run time of a simulation can be reduced by utilizing the natural parallelism of waveform relaxation on parallel processors. Four parallel waveform relaxation algorithms are considered, based on the Gauss-Seidel and Gauss-Jacobi relaxation methods, in …

Automated Tracking of Mouse Embryogenesis from Large-scale Fluorescence Microscopy Data
… for days, easily generating terabyte-level 3D time-lapse data. Since millions of cells are involved, this information-rich data brings a natural demand for an automated tool for its comprehensive analysis. This tool should automatically (1) detect and segment cells at each time point and (2) …

Evaluation of a Novel Self-Assembled Nanocoating in Promoting Bone On-growth and Apposition on Metal
… implants were implanted in 9 rabbits per time point. Additionally at each time-point, 2 rabbits were implanted with cylindrical pins that have 6 longitudinal crevices and their cross-section were circumferentially serrated. The rabbits were randomized to one of four time points: 4, 8, 12 …

Trait mindfulness as a predictive factor for intimate partner violence perpetration among young adults
… hurdle model of IPV occurrence and frequency at Time 3 being predicted by trait mindfulness at Time 1 and other known risk factors at Time 2. Results indicated that trait mindfulness at time 1 was associated with IPV perpetration at Time 3; however, when controlling for other known risk factors …

Isolating and optimising transmural endothelialization as an independent mode of spontaneous vascular graft healing
… TAE was determined at 2, 4, and 6 weeks (n=6/time-point) (ePTFE;ID1.7mm;IND15-25µm). High-porosity polyurethane (internal diameter 1.7mm- 150mm pore size) grafts were interposed between ePTFE grafts for 2, 4, 6, and 8 weeks (n=6/time point). Grafts were looped to increase their length and were …
