The hydraulic driven legged robots walking on the ground always encounter impact forces due to the contacts between feet and ground.Aiming to reduce the impact forces, a novel passive compliance Canned Dog Food method is proposed by adding a miniature hydraulic accumulator to the piston chamber of the hydraulic actuator.And the overflow valve and t
Comparison of Commercial ELISA Kits, a Prototype Multiplex Electrochemoluminescent Assay, and a Multiplex Bead-Based Immunoassay for Detecting a Urine-Based Bladder-Cancer-Associated Diagnostic Signature
The ability to accurately measure multiple proteins simultaneously in a single assay USB to SATA Adaptor has the potential to markedly improve the efficiency of clinical tests composed of multiple biomarkers.We investigated the diagnostic accuracy of the two multiplex protein array platforms for detecting a bladder-cancer-associated diagnostic sign
Application of Raman and Brillouin Scattering Phenomena in Distributed Optical Fiber Sensing
We present a review of the basic operating principles and measurement schemes of standalone and hybrid distributed optical fiber sensors based on Raman and Brillouin scattering phenomena.Such sensors have been attracting a great deal of attention due to the wide industrial applications they offer, ranging from energy to oil and gas, transportation
Predictors and Risk Factors of Pathologic Complete Response Following Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy for Rectal Cancer: A Population-Based Analysis
Background: Patients with rectal cancer who achieve pathologic complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) may have a better prognosis and may be eligible for non-operative management.The aim of this research was to identify variables for predicting pCR in rectal cancer patients after nCRT and to define clinical risk factors
