BACKGROUND Keloid therapy remains a great challenge for plastic surgeons, especially when the defect cannot be closed primarily, necessitating tissue transplantation. Here, we introduce a new treatment modality, called the sandwich therapy, for presternal keloids; the sandwich therapy incorporates preradiotherapy, superficial circumflex iliac artery perforator (SCIP) flap transplantation, and p...

Those with children and working full time may find life particularly hectic—scheduling children’s activities, planning for family time, and still allowing time for themselves. For some, life is furthe...

We discuss the asymmetric sandwich theorem, a generalization of the Hahn–Banach theorem. As applications, we derive various results on the existence of linear functionals that include bivariate, trivariate and quadrivariate generalizations of the Fenchel duality theorem. Most of the results are about affine functions defined on convex subsets of vector spaces, rather than linear functions defin...

A hapten-sandwich procedure has been developed for specific labeling of cell surface antigens for fluorescence or electron microscopy. Haptens are azo-coupled to immunoglobulins specific for a cell surface antigen; the hapten-modified cell-bound antibodies can then be visualized by adding fluorescent antihapten antibody, or by adding antihapten antibody followed by hapten-modified markers for e...

Two series of experiments are performed to investigate the dynamic response of various essential components of a class of sandwich structures, under high-rate inertial loads. One consists of dynamic inertia tests and the other involves dynamic impact tests. A split Hopkinson bar apparatus is modified and used for these experiments. First, the energy-absorbing characteristics of the plate materi...

The double-sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay has been compared with the indirect fluorescence assay for the detection of immunoglobulin M antibodies against Toxoplasma gondii in humans. Incubation times have been shortened, permitting the test to be completed within 2 h. The double-sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay is confirmed to be more sensitive and more specific than the i...

The structure of the title compound, [Dy(C(8)H(22)B(4)Si(2))Cl(C(6)H(16)N(2))], reveals that a center of symmetry exists within the dimeric half-sandwich units. Within each half-sandwich, the Dy(III) ion is coordinated by the five-membered ring of the carborane, tetramethylethyl-enediamine and the chloride ion.

We review recent advances in the area of composite sandwich modeling, sensitivity analyses, optimization techniques and applications, with the focus on structuralacoustic problems. The optimization of sandwich structures is with respect to passive design parameters, such as material constants, geometric parameters, cellular core geometry and boundary conditions.

The current study is fully devoted to studying differential subordination and superordination theorems of analytic functions with some sandwich results involving linear operators Iλs,a,μ. This operator was obtained by the Hadamard product family integral Hurwitlz-Lerch Zeta function. demonstrate possibility capability extracting Sandwich theorem, conclusion includes superordination.
