Fig. 1. Behavior of condensates on smooth surfaces and within pores. The surface wettability determines the contact angle θ and the curvature of a liquid condensate on a smooth surface (A) and within a pore (B), where θ and the pore diameter strongly affect the liquid’s vapor pressure (C), here for the case of liquid water. Capillary condensation of a liquid (red) and subsequent crystal (green)...

Birdshot retinochoroidopathy is a rare inflammatory eye disease with typical clinical presentation and strong association with the HLA-A29 allele. Characteristic appearances on fluorescein angiogram (FA), indocyanine green (ICG) angiography, and electroretinogram (ERG) have been described. However, histopathology of the disease has been rare. 3 The following case is an example of birdshot retin...

The 900-odd species of Ficus (20, 21) constitute the most distinctive of the widespread genera of tropical plants. Figs have (a) a complex obligatory mutualism with their pollinating agaonid fig wasps, yet are found in almost all tropical habitat types and geographic locations [this sets them apart from ant-acacias (63-65), euglossine-orchids (24,26), moth-yuccas (45, 88, 89,), ant-epiphytes (6...

This is the first comparative study of correlated evolution between figs (Ficus species, Moraceae) and their pollinators (Hymenoptera: Agaoninae) based on molecular phylogenies of both lineages. Fig relationships based on the internal transcribed spacer region (ITS) of nuclear ribosomal DNA and pollinator relationships inferred from mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I (COI) sequences enabled the...

[15]. Our implementation on the MasPar allows rendering with changing viewpoints of five frames/second and two frames/sec-ond for higher quality trilinear reconstruction on 128x128x128 byte volumes. This improves on previous results [2][3] [9][10][12] because of the better filters used, and we discussed the filter differences. Straight forward extensions to our techniques include coher-ency ada...

J waves can commonly be seen in patients with severe hypothermia. Fig. 1 shows an ECG recording of a patient undergoing coronary artery revascularisation with the use of cardiopulmonary bypass. The purple recording shows the ECG with a small, existing J wave early during the initiation of cooling. The green overlay demonstrates the accentuation of the J wave as the patient was further cooled to...

Fig. 1 Volume rendered transverse images and manual segmentation (magnified) of the free-running Purkinje fiber network in the LV of a young rabbit heart (left) and an old rabbit heart (right). Lines and arrows in the green and red boxes indicate where sectioning occurred and viewer was located. Interseptal thickness is approximately 3.93 mm (young) and 4.82 mm (old). I: ventricular interseptum...
