A novel stereoscopic/3D desktop monitor has been developed that combines the output of two active matrix LCDs (AMLCDs) into a stereo image through use of a unique beamsplitter design. This approach, called the StereoMirror, creates a stereo/3D monitor that retains the full resolution, response time and chromaticity of the component displays. The resultant flicker-free image, when viewed with pa...

primary localized amyloidosis of eyelid is a localized type of amyloidosis without evidence of systemic involvement. we report a 75-year-old man suffering of unilateral (left) ptosis due to upper eyelid mass with bony consistency. eye examination revealed upper lid mass attached to tarsus. no ocular infection or inflammation was found. pathologist reported diffuse distribution of eosinophilic h...

C ERTAIN DERMOSCOPIC STRUCTURES ARE more conspicuous with nonpolarized dermoscopy (NPD), while others are more conspicuous with polarized dermoscopy (PD). The introduction of “hybrid” dermoscopes allows the user to toggle between polarized and nonpolarized light. We found that structures that are more conspicuous with either NPD or PD appear to “blink” when the observer toggles between light mo...

MUPP1 and Patj are both composed of an L27 domain and multiple PDZ domains (13 and 10 domains, respectively) and are localized to tight junctions (TJs) in epithelial cells. Although Patj is known to be responsible for the organization of TJs and epithelial polarity, characterization of MUPP1 is lacking. In this study, we found that MUPP1 and Patj share several binding partners, including JAM1, ...

Circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) in simple (small, nonaggregated, nonpolymeric) O-BODIPYs (R)-1 and (S)-1 by irradiation with visible light is first detected as proof of the ability of a new structural design to achieve CPL from inherently achiral monochromophore systems in simple organic molecules. The measured level of CPL (|g(lum)|) in solution falls into the usual range of that obtai...

1 Abstract—The paper discusses recent developments and challenges in the design of small omnidirectional circularly-polarized (CP) antennas. Although omnidirectional CP coverage is easily achievable using antenna arrays, it is just recently that small and low-cost antennas delivered this functionality. The paper addresses practical design problems for these antennas, not reported in previous pu...

The morphogenesis of epithelial cells in the tissue microenvironment depends on the regulation of the forces and structures that keep cells in contact with their neighbours. The formation of cell-cell contacts is integral to the establishment and maintenance of epithelial morphogenesis. In epithelial tissues, the misregulation of the signalling pathways that control epithelial polarization indu...

A novel twin-diamond-shaped antenna is presented for wideband circularly polarized (CP) radiation. By introducing a twin-diamond-shaped patch and a gap-coupled feed structure, a lefthanded circularly polarized (LHCP) antenna in bore-sight direction is obtained. The gap-coupled feed structure consists of a horizontal microstrip arm of approximately 0.285λ0 at the centre frequency and two small d...

introduction: this study was designed to investigate the characters of the human endometrial epithelial cells when cultured on either plastic or ecm (extracellular matrix) gel surface and to study ultrastructural features of cultured cells in comparison to endometrial tissue. material and methods: human endometrial tissue was obtained from patients who had undergone hysterectomy for uterine myo...
