Despite association with low bone density and skeletal fractures, marrow adipose tissue (MAT) remains poorly understood. The marrow adipocyte originates from the mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) pool that also gives rise to osteoblasts, chondrocytes, and myocytes, among other cell types. To date, the presence of MAT has been attributed to preferential biasing of MSC into the adipocyte rather than os...

A multiscale extension to the medial axis transform(MAT) or skeleton can be obtained by combining information derived from a scale-space hierarchy of boundary representations with region information provided by the MAT. The skeleton-space is constructed by attributing each skeleton component with a hierarchically ordered sequence of residual values, each expressing the saliency of the component...

To our knowledge, 22 cases of chromosome 14 maternal uniparental disomy (UPD(14)mat) have been reported so far. The majority of cases were ascertained because of an abnormal phenotype associated with a Robertsonian translocation involving chromosome 14. We report here on a child with UPD(14)mat detected prenatally and resulting from trisomy rescue in a maternal meiosis I non-disjunction trisomi...

background and objectives: infection is the most common cause of death among burnt patients and infection control decrease the rate of mortality. the use of sticky mat can control contamination by preventing the entrance microorganisms into the hospital wards. this study was designed to evaluate the sticky mats effect in reduction of microorganism’s entry by personnel shoes to burn intensive ca...

Theory and experiment agree that climate warming will increase carbon fluxes between terrestrial ecosystems and the atmosphere. The effect of this increased exchange on terrestrial carbon storage is less predictable, with important implications for potential feedbacks to the climate system. We quantified how increased mean annual temperature (MAT) affects ecosystem carbon storage in above- and ...
