There are numerous multi-planet systems that have now been detected via a variety of techniques. These systems exhibit a range of both planetary properties and orbital configurations. For those systems without detected planetary transits, a significant unknown factor is the orbital inclination. This produces an uncertainty in the mass of the planets and their related properties, such as atmosph...

PURPOSE To evaluate internal distraction plating for the management of comminuted, intra-articular distal radius fractures in patients greater than 60 years of age at two level 1 trauma centers. We specifically desired to determine whether patients would have acceptable results from the clinical standpoint of range of motion, Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) score, and the rad...

Using phase-resolved spectroscopic observations obtained with the Ultraviolet and Visual Echelle Spectrograph on the ESO Kueyen Very Large Telescope, supplemented by spectroscopic observations obtained with the Boller and Chivens spectrograph on the Walter Baade Magellan Telescope, we have found sinusoidal radial velocity variations with a semi-amplitude of 327 ± 17 km s−1. From previous observ...

Our R-band data show that the optical light from Malin 1 corresponds well with the >2-arcmin extent of the galaxy’s HI content and continues well beyond previously published V -band optical light radial profiles. Analysis of our image yields improved understanding of the galaxy’s properties. We measure ellipticity of 0.20 ± 0.03, implying inclination of 38 ± 3, and we trace the radial profile t...

Using phase resolved spectroscopic observations obtained with the Ultraviolet and Visual Echelle Spectrograph on ESO’s Kueyen Very Large Telescope supplemented by spectroscopic observations obtained with the Boller and Chivens Spectrograph on the Walter Baade Magellan telescope, we found sinusoidal radial–velocity variations with a semi–amplitude 327±17 km/s. From previous observations and from...

Aims. It is commonly assumed that the two indirect exoplanet detection methods, the radial velocity method and astrometric method, require observational periods exceeding the orbital period to produce positive results. Here we test this assumption in detail. We also investigate the smallest ratio of observational timeline and orbital period required for positive detections. Methods. We obtain f...

Abstract Aim The study aim is to determine the impact of brachioradialis release during open reduction and internal fixation distal radius fractures using a volar approach Method Total 40 patients was treated with Open intra articular fractures. Distal Brachioradialis performed 19 patients, while 21 had no BR surgery. Radiological parameters including Radial height, Inclination tilt were measur...

The K-band light-profiles from two statistically complete, diameter-limited samples of disk galaxies have been simultaneously modelled with a seeing-convolved Sérsic r bulge and a seeing-convolved exponential disk. This has enabled an accurate separation of the bulge and disk light, and hence an estimate of the central disk surface brightness μ0,K and the disk scale-length h. There exists a bri...

PURPOSE To review outcomes of combined volar and dorsal locked plating for AO type-C3 complex comminuted distal radial fractures. METHODS Records of 24 patients aged 17 to 77 (mean, 53.3) years who underwent combined volar and dorsal locked plating for AO type-C3 distal radial fractures with volar and dorsal metaphyseal and intra-articular comminution were reviewed. 21 were closed fractures, ...

BACKGROUND Despite the recent trend toward the internal fixation of distal radial fractures in older patients, the currently available literature lacks adequate randomized trials examining whether open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) with a volar locking plate is superior to nonoperative (cast) treatment. The purpose of the present randomized clinical trial was to compare the outcomes of...
