To develop an organ-on-chip for the cervical epithelial layer (CE-OOC) testing intercellular interactions between cells from distinct regions of cervix and their contributions in maintaining integrity during infection inflammation often associated with spontaneous preterm birth. The CE-OOC is composed two chambers connected by microchannels to culture ectocervical (Ecto) endocervical (Endo) rec...

a r t i c l e i n f o Object-oriented classification (OOC) has shown many significant advantages over other methods for classification of urban or forest ecosystems. However, it remains unclear if this technology could exhibit these advantages on mapping monospecific plant stands in herbaceous plant dominated ecosystems (e.g. saltmarshes). In this study, we compared the effectiveness of OOC and...

Orthokeratinized odontogenic cyst (OOC) was initially defined as the uncommon orthokeratinized type of keratocyst (OKC) by World Health Organization (WHO). Several studies have shown that OOC has different clinicopathologic aspects when compared with other developmental cysts, especially OKC. So now emerges to be a distinct entity, according 4th edition WHO Classification Head and Neck Tumors w...

Orthokeratinized odontogenic cysts (OOCs) are relatively uncommon developmental cysts lined with orthokeratinized epithelium consisting of a prominent granular layer and a basal layer of low cuboidal flattened cells that show no tendency for nuclear palisading. These cysts have been considered a distinct entity from odontogenic keratocysts since they exhibit a less aggressive behavior and a ver...

1. Overview Output-output correspondence (OOC) constraints, constraints which demand correspondence between independently occurring surface forms, have recently been added to the set of constraint types invoked in much OT work. In this paper we examine some of the better-known arguments originally adduced in support of OOC constraints, and argue that adoption of such a powerful mechanism is not...

In this section we review a few of the most important algorithms in generating OOCs. An optical orthogonal code) , , , (c a w n λ λ is a family C of (0,1) sequences of leng...

1 The stated choice (SC) experiment is generally regarded as an effective way to obtain data for 2 discrete choice analysis. The SC experimental design method, which determines the rule to allocate 3 different levels for each attribute in choice situations, will have a great impact on parameter 4 estimation. The optimal orthogonal choice (OOC) design is one of the most efficient SC designs, by ...

Structural characteristics of two-dimensional elliptic granular packs with various aspect ratios and intergranular friction coefficients were studied using the Discrete Element Method (DEM). Isotropic compaction from random unjammed state leads to a jammed polycrystals orientationally ordered clusters (OOC). The OOCs identified cluster labelling algorithm, based on relative angle Δθ between maj...
