To investigate the influence of vascular normalization on solid tumor blood perfusion and drug delivery, we used the generated blood vessel network for simulations. Considering the hemodynamic parameters changing after antiangiogenic therapies, the results show that the interstitial fluid pressure IFP in tumor tissue domain decreases while the pressure gradient increases during the normalizatio...

Idiopathic facial palsy (IFP), also known as Bell's palsy, is a common neurologic disorder, but recurrent and familial forms are rare. This case series presents a three-generation family with idiopathic facial palsy. The mode of inheritance of IFP has previously been suggested as autosomal dominant with low or variable penetrance, but the present family indicates an autosomal dominant trait wit...

We consider the problem of counting the number of points on a plane curve, given by a homogeneous polynomial F E Fp[x, y, 21, which is rational over the ground field IFp. More precisely, we show that if we are given a projective plane curve C of degree n, and if C has only ordinary multiple points, then one can compute the number of IFp-rational points on C in randomized time (logp)" where A = ...

Abstract Objective To investigate the response of infrapatellar fat pad (IFP) to running at different intensities and further explore underlying mechanisms these responses under running-induced loadings. Methods Animals were randomly assigned into sedentary (SED), low-intensity (LIR), medium-intensity (MIR), high-intensity (HIR) groups. The rats in LIR, MIR, HIR groups subjected an 8-week tread...

WOG Well Optimization by Geosteering: A Pilot Software for Cooperative Modeling on Internet — IFP has recently started the development of a new data management system named WOG for “Well Optimization by Geosteering”. In this project, our aim is to distribute the information through the network so as to share knowledge. The key advantage of this software is to allow visualization for each of Int...

Highly boosted spark ignition engines must confront violent forms of pre-ignition limiting the maximal low-end torque. French research institute IFP presents here an innovative tool allowing a better understanding of this phenomenon and a structured reasoning considering all potential causes of this phenomenon. Advanced statistical analyses of the combustion process and direct visualisations in...

This paper describes a performance interface called iFP that enables players to play music as if he or she had the hands of the virtuoso. iFP is a tapping-style musical interface and refers to a pianist's expressiveness described in a performance template. The paper describes the scheduler that allows a player to mix her/his own intension with the expressiveness in the performance template and ...

Primary synovial chondromatosis is a rare condition of idiopathic synovial chondrometaplasia and usually occurs during the third to fifth decades of life. Conversely, secondary synovial chondromatosis results from the growth of separated particles from articular cartilage or osteophytes in patients with joint diseases, such as degenerative osteoarthritis, and occurs mostly in elderly people. We...
