Imide electrolyte salts have received increasing interest in lithium–sulfur battery (LSB) research due to their oxidation capacity, thermal stability, and cycling stability. Although the ionic conductivity of imide electrolytes is moderate, a LSB with exhibits improved charge–discharge (CD) capacity Coulombic efficiency. Here, we applied an effective strategy suppress polysulfide dissolution by...

PURPOSE To study the parameters of the 1331 fat saturation pulse (saturation pulse flip angle (SPFA) and interpulse delay (tau)) in order to identify values that provide optimal vessel visibility. METHODS Carotid bifurcations of three healthy subjects were studied. RESULTS The optimal values for the SPFA and tau were 60 degrees (7.5 degrees, -22.5 degrees, 22.5 degrees, -7.5 degrees) and 2....

The aim of this cross-sectional study was to determine the self-reported knowledge and pattern of physical activity among a sample of 1240 male and 1331 female intermediate and secondary school students in Al-Khobar city, Saudi Arabia. The majority of male and female students knew that physical activity is protective against diseases in general (92.9% and 91.8% respectively) and in the preventi...

We aim to evaluate the prognostic effect of the histological sub-type in patients with metastatic bladder cancer based on the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results database. A total of 2634 eligible patients were included. The histological subtypes were: transitional cell carcinoma (TCC; 75.2%); adenocarcinoma (3.3%); squamous cell carcinoma (SQCC; 4.1%); and small cell carcinoma (4.3%). A ...

Various experimental comparisons of algorithms for supervised classi®cation of remote-sensing images have been reported in the literature. Among others, a comparison of neural and statistical classi®ers has previously been made by the authors in (Serpico, S.B., Bruzzone, L., Roli, F., 1996. Pattern Recognition Letters 17, 1331±1341). Results of reported experiments have clearly shown that the s...

Since statistical relationships between HIV load and CD4+ T cell loss have been demonstrated to be weak, searching for host factors contributing to the pathogenesis of HIV infection becomes a key point for both understanding the disease pathology and developing treatments. We applied Maximum Relevance Minimum Redundancy (mRMR) algorithm to a set of microarray data generated from the CD4+ T cell...
