PURPOSE: To prospectively evaluate lung parenchyma on paired inspiration-expiration thin-section computed tomographic (CT) scans in patients recovering from severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). MATERIALS AND METHODS: After the institutional review board approved study and written consent was obtained patients, 40 (25 female, 15 male; mean age, 42.8 years ± 12.3 [standard deviation]) underwent CT at 51.8 days 20.2 after onset of SARS symptoms. Twenty follow-up 140.7 26.7 symptom onset....
Biosensor research has been addressed as an interested field recently. Within different kinds of developed biosensing technologies, field-effect transistor (FET) based biosensors stand out due to their attractive features, such ultra-sensitivity detection, mass-production capability, and low-cost manufacturing. To promote understandings the FET technology, in this review, its sensing mechanism is introduced, well major FET-based devices: ion sensitive (ISFET), silicon nanowire, organic FET,...
A highly adaptive multi-sensor SoC comprising four integrated on-chip sensors and a smart wireless acquisition system is realized in standard CMOS process for the first time. To intelligently different types (C, R, I, V) of sensor signals, linear (R-square 0.999) reconfigurable readout proposed based on switched-capacitor circuit technology. In addition, dual-input energy harvesting interface with conversion efficiency 73% also to pick up light RF power, which potentiates long-term use...
The clinical picture of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is characterized by pulmonary inflammation and failure, resembling that distress syndrome. However, the events lead to recruitment leukocytes are poorly understood. To study cellular response in phase SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV)-host cell interaction, we investigated induction chemokines, adhesion molecules, DC-SIGN (dendritic cell-specific ICAM-3-grabbing nonintegrin) SARS-CoV. Immunohistochemistry revealed neutrophil,...
We developed a molecular sorter that operates without external power or control by integrating the microtubule-based, biological motor kinesin into microfluidic channel network to sort, transport, and concentrate molecules. In our devices, functionalized microtubules capture analyte molecules are steered along kinesin-coated microchannel tracks toward collector structure, concentrated, trapped. Using fluorescent nanoliter sample volumes, we demonstrated 14 fM sensitivity, even in presence of...
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), accounting for approximately 20% of cases, is a particular subtype that lacks tumor-specific targets and difficult to treat due its high aggressiveness poor prognosis. Chemotherapy remains the major systemic treatment TNBC. However, applicability efficacy in clinic are usually concerning lack targeting, adverse side effects, occurrence multidrug resistance, suggesting development effective therapeutics still highly demanded nowadays. In this study, an...
A 14-year-old girl, who had been suffering from intermittent fevers for 2 months, developed painful erythematous plaques on the lower extremities. Laboratory data revealed elevated C-reactive protein, lactate dehydrogenase, and aspartate aminotransferase/alanine aminotransferase (AST/ALT). Blood urine cultures were negative. CT showed hepatosplenomegaly. F-18 FDG PET multiple patchy uptakes subcutaneous surfaces residing mainly at trunk The images clinical manifestations appeared...
The incorporation of plasmonic metal nanostructures into semiconducting chalcogenides in the form core-shell structures provides a promising approach to enhancing performance photodetectors. In this study, we combined Au nanoparticles with newly developed copper-based Cu
Abstract The genome of one Taiwanese severe acute respiratory syndrome-associated coronavirus (SARS-CoV) strain (TW1) was 29,729 nt in length. Viral RNA may persist for some time patients who seroconvert, and lack an antibody response (immunoglobulin G) to SARS-CoV >21 days after illness onset. An upsurge associated with the aggravation failure.
As developments of modern societies, an on-field and personalized diagnosis has become important for disease prevention proper treatment. To address this need, in work, a polysilicon nanowire (poly-Si NW) based biosensor system-on-chip (bio-SSoC) is designed fabricated by 0.35 μm 2-Poly-4-Metal (2P4M) complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) process provided commercialized semiconductor foundry. Because the advantages CMOS (SoC) technologies, poly-Si NW integrated with chopper...

Statins, inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase, are used to reduce cholesterol biosynthesis in the liver. Accordingly, statins regulate nitric oxide (NO) and glutamate metabolism, inflammation, angiogenesis, immunity endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) functions. The function EPCs regulated by stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF-1), vascular growth (VEGF), transforming β (TGF-β), etc. Even though pharmacologic mechanisms which affect neovasculogenesis...
Graphene-based supercapacitors have gained significant attention due to their exceptional energy storage capabilities. Despite numerous research efforts trying improve the performance, challenge of experimentally elucidating nanoscale-interface molecular characteristics still needs be tackled for device optimizations in commercial applications.
