This article presents an overview of the literature on the current diagnostic criteria for new onset diabetes mellitus after transplantation (NODAT) and discusses suggested risk factors for the development of NODAT, its potential pathogenic mechanisms, and its impact on post-transplant outcomes after solid organ transplantation. Suggested guidelines for early identification and management of NO...

Intracavity laser absorption spectroscopy (ICLAS) is an extremely sensitive method for the detection of very weak absorptions. However, the conventional use of multimode lasers has thus far significantly reduced its ability to detect in situ molecules and its sensitivity. We propose the use of a new type of laser that overcomes these limitations: the turbulent detuned actively mode-locked (TDAM...

Mucosal contact point headache is a new type of secondary headache in International Headache Classification-2. At present, this concept is widely quoted in otolaryngology head and neck surgery, and applied in clinical practices. Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) is a common method to treat mucosal contact point headache, but the surgical results were quite different among hospitals. Wh...

The theory of structural phase transition in CuTi2S4 is proposed. The symmetry of order parameters, thermodynamics and the mechanism of the atomic structure formation of the rhombohedral Cu-Ti-thiospinel have been studied. The critical order parameter inducing the phase transition has been found. Within the Landau theory of phase transitions, it is shown that the phase state may change from the...
