The topological spin textures in magnetic vortices in confined magnetic elements offer a platform for understanding the fundamental physics of nanoscale spin behavior and the potential of harnessing their unique spin structures for advanced magnetic technologies. For magnetic vortices to be practical, an effective reconfigurability of the two topologies of magnetic vortices, that is, the circul...

Mechanical load and postmenopausal hypoestrogen are risk factors for pelvic organ prolapse (POP). In this study, we applied a 0.1-Hz uniaxial cyclic mechanical stretching (CS) with 10% elongation and 10⁻⁸ M 17-β-estradiol to vaginal fibroblasts isolated from postmenopausal women with or without POP to investigate the effects of CS and estrogen on cell morphology and cytoskeletons of normal and ...

The influence of pH, conductivity and Ca ion concentrations of fountain solutions on the quality of tone, dot, line and text was investigated. Physico-chemical parameters of fountain solutions were analyzed by standard methods. Image quality assessment (IQA) was carried out using the ISO methodology and ImageJ software. The obtained data of the mechanical and optical tone value, dot circularity...

OBJECTIVE To analyze, using confocal microscope, the three-dimensional characteristics of the root-end cavity preparations completed in root apices of extracted teeth determining their area, perimeter, circularity and cavo-surface angle. STUDY DESIGN Thirty-two single-rooted extracted teeth underwent endodontic treatment and apical resection. Root-end cavities were prepared according to 4 pro...

concept (as opposed to the instance thereof found inside the string xyz). Many people, eager to construct a successor to Platonic z, invoke the commonplace notion of circularity, thus conceiving of a as the successor of z, much as January can be considered the successor of December, the digit Ό' the successor of the digit '9', an ace the successor of a king, or, in music, the note A the success...

PURPOSE To determine the correlation of nuclear morphometry of primary cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM) with clinicopathological parameters and the expression of p53, p16INK4a, and bcl-2. METHODS Image analysis and computerized nuclear morphometry were used in a series of 53 primary CMM (nodular melanoma/NM, N=33, and superficially spreading melanoma/SSM, N=20). The clinicopathological para...
