New ICD-10 version of the Charlson comorbidity index predicted in-hospital mortality

Epithelial-mesenchymal transition and its implications for fibrosis

Epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a central mechanism for diversifying the cells found in complex tissues. This dynamic process helps organize the formation of the b...

The evolution of cooperation in strategic alliances: Initial conditions or learning processes?

We examine how the learning, along several dimensions (environment, task, process, skills, goals), that takes place in strategic alliances between firms mediates between the ini...

Clinical findings in a group of patients infected with the 2019 novel coronavirus (SARS-Cov-2) outside of Wuhan, China: retrospective case series

Abstract Objective To study the clinical characteristics of patients in Zhejiang province, China, infected with the 2019 severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-Co...

<i>Ab initio</i>calculation of phonon dispersions in semiconductors

The density-functional linear-response approach to lattice-dynamical calculations in semiconductors is presented in full detail. As an application, we calculate complete phonon ...

A theory of dark matter

We propose a comprehensive theory of dark matter that explains the recent proliferation of unexpected observations in high-energy astrophysics. Cosmic ray spectra from ATIC and ...

Adaptive clustering for mobile wireless networks

This paper describes a self-organizing, multihop, mobile radio network which relies on a code-division access scheme for multimedia support. In the proposed network architecture...

Polarizable Atomic Multipole Water Model for Molecular Mechanics Simulation

A new classical empirical potential is proposed for water. The model uses a polarizable atomic multipole description of electrostatic interactions. Multipoles through the quadru...

Predicting the clinical status of human breast cancer by using gene expression profiles

Prognostic and predictive factors are indispensable tools in the treatment of patients with neoplastic disease. For the most part, such factors rely on a few specific cell surfa...

New developments in the Inorganic Crystal Structure Database (ICSD): accessibility in support of materials research and design

The materials community in both science and industry use crystallographic data models on a daily basis to visualize, explain and predict the behavior of chemicals and materials....
