Abstract Generalized pustular psoriasis ( GPP ) is a rare disease characterized by recurrent fever and systemic flushing accompanied extensive sterile pustules. The committee of the guidelines was founded as collaborative project between Japanese Dermatological Association Study Group for Rare Intractable Skin Diseases under Ministry Health, Labour, Welfare Research Project on Overcoming Diseases. aim to provide current information aid in treatment patients with Japan.

Repair of neonatal tetralogy Fallot (TOF) has low mortality. Debate continues regarding the initial management cyanotic or duct-dependent infants with TOF and adverse risk factors. While repair can been performed in these patients, it is associated increased morbidity.We review effectiveness right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) stenting symptomatic young infant TOF.Clinical, echocardiographic, angiographic haemodynamic data were reviewed for nine patients who underwent 11 RVOT procedures...

We demonstrate a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) strain sensor with optical frequency combs. To precisely characterize the response of FBG when is applied, dual-comb spectroscopy used. Highly sensitive enabled measurements resolution 34 nε. The spectral bandwidth measurement exceeds 1 THz. Compared conventional using continuous-wave laser that requires rather slow scanning limited range, dynamic range and multiplexing capability are significantly improved by broadband spectroscopy.
Optical frequency combs are typically generated in the near-infrared wavelength range, where many mode-locked lasers operate. Nonlinear conversion can then be used to extend optical metrology other spectral regions, such as extreme ultraviolet (XUV). High-power at fundamental efficiently drive nonlinear conversions. Low phase noise is an important requirement because process not only multiplies carrier but also fluctuations. In this work, we have developed a low-noise comb centered 1030 nm...
