CurlySMILES is a chemical line notation which extends SMILES with annotations for storage, retrieval and modeling of interlinked, coordinated, assembled and adsorbed molecules in supramolecular structures and nanodevices. Annotations are enclosed in curly braces and anchored to an atomic node or at the end of the molecular graph depending on the annotation type. CurlySMILES includes predefined ...

Materials and Methods: Two MC models including a model with...

BACKGROUND Patients with suspected pulmonary embolism (PE) should be evaluated for the clinical probability of PE using an applicable risk score. The Geneva prognostic score, the PE Severity Index (PESI), and its simplified version (sPESI) are well-known clinical prognostic scores for PE. The purpose of this study was to analyze these clinical scores as prognostic tools. MATERIALS AND METHODS...

A simplified method for making shadowed thermoplastic negative replicas of fibrous materials was developed. Through this technique, fine details of the morphology of the wool fiber, before and after treatment, were clearly revealed by the electron microscope. The structural implications of the electron micrographs are discussed with respect to the subject of wear and in reference to the observa...

Negative refraction is currently achieved by driving the magnetic permeability and electrical permittivity simultaneously negative, thus requiring two separate resonances in the refracting material. The introduction of a single chiral resonance leads to negative refraction of one polarization, resulting in improved and simplified designs of negatively refracting materials and opening previously...
