Elimination of motion, pulsatile flow and cross-talk artifacts using blade sequences in lumbar spine MR imaging
(2013)
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the ability of T2 turbo spin echo (TSE) axial and sagittal BLADE sequences in reducing or even eliminating motion, pulsatile flow and cross-talk artifacts in lumbar spine MRI ...
Morphological and molecular analysis of bloom-forming Cyanobacteria in two eutrophic, shallow Mediterranean lakes
(2011)
We investigated the diversity of Cyanobacteria by microscopic observation and sequencing of cyanobacterial-specific amplified 16S rRNA genes in the water column of two shallow, eutrophic lakes (Doirani and Kastoria, northern ...
A novel experimental setup for gas microflows
(2010)
A new experimental setup for flow rate measurement of gases through microsystems is presented. Its principle is based on two complementary techniques, called droplet tracking method and constant-volume method. Experimental ...
Ecosystem modeling: Towards the development of a management tool for a marine coastal system Part I: General circulation, hydrological and dynamical structure
(2012)
The semi-enclosed environment of Pagasitikos Gulf was the object of a holistic study during 1998-1999 following the appearance of mucilaginous events during summer. A major part of the INSEA project was the development and ...
The effect of postharvest application of O<inf>3</inf> and 1-MCP on 'Red Chief' apple quality during prolonged air cold storage
(2015)
The effects of postharvest application of 1-MCP and air storage in the presence of low O<inf>3</inf> concentration on 'Red Chief' apple fruit quality were studied during prolonged storage. Apple fruit were harvested from ...
Modeling of surface finish in electro-discharge machining based upon statistical multi-parameter analysis
(2004)
A multi-parameter analysis of surface finish imparted to Ck60 steel plates by electro-discharge machining (EDM) is presented. The interrelationship between surface texture parameters and process parameters is emphasized. ...
Personality characteristics and profiles of Greek elementary teachers using the sixteen personality factor questionnaire (16PF)
(2009)
Empirical evidence indicates that a teacher's personality influences the classroom climate, students' behaviors, and their interpersonal relationships. Although the effect of a teacher's personality on students' psychological ...
Predictive and prognostic value of LPS-stimulated cytokine secretion in metastatic non-small cell lung cancer
(2013)
Cancer patients usually develop malnutrition which may alter their innate immune system integrity. The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical relevance of chemokine response after lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulation ...
BsmI, TaqI, ApaI and FokI polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene and the risk of osteoporosis: A meta-analysis
(2006)
A meta-analysis regarding BsmI, TaqI, ApaI and FokI polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene and their associations with osteoporosis in females is reported. The meta-analysis involved 14, seven, seven and three ...
