SrRuO(3) (SRO) thin films grown on (001)(p) (p = pseudocubic) oriented LaAlO(3) (LAO) by pulsed laser deposition have been characterized using transmission electron microscopy. Observations along the 100(p) directions suggests that although the SRO layer maintains a pseudocube-to-pseudocube orientation relationship with the underlying LAO substrate, it has a ferroelastic domain structure associ...

Lymph node metastasis plays a crucial role in predicting prognosis in advanced gastric cancer (AGC). In the present study, we formulated a fibrosis ratio (FR), defined as the number of metastatic lymph nodes with fibrosis divided by the total number of lymph nodes, and sought to determine whether it can be used to predict the prognosis of patients with AGC and improve on existing node staging. ...

The structure of the 5 p 5 p R26:6 reconstruction of LaAlO3 (001) has been determined using transmission electron diffraction combined with direct methods. It has a lanthanum oxide termination with one lanthanum vacancy per surface unit cell. Density functional calculations indicate that charge compensation occurs by a fractional number of highly delocalized holes, and that the surface contains...

PURPOSE Estrogens and androgens are elevated in obesity and associated with increased postmenopausal breast cancer risk, but the effect of weight loss on these biomarkers is unknown. We evaluated the individual and combined effects of a reduced-calorie weight loss diet and exercise on serum sex hormones in overweight and obese postmenopausal women. PATIENTS AND METHODS We conducted a single-b...
