Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects on objective and subjective
image quality of virtual monoenergetic reconstructions at various energy levels of dual-energy …

Introduction To investigate low-tube-voltage 80-kVp computed tomography (CT) of head
and neck primary and recurrent squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) regarding objective and …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Low-tube-voltage acquisition has been shown to facilitate
substantial dose savings for neck CT with similar image contrast compared with standard …

… The total specific energy consumption E m,tot of grinding a mixture can be divided into
individual parts E m,j . These parts are consumed by the single components j in the mixture, …

… Thus, the specific energy input E m,tot could be calculated taking into account the solids …
Equation (1) shows the formula used for the calculation of E m,tot . E m , t o t = P − P 0 m P , t …

… Here u → = J → P g μ B / 2 e M s is the so-called spin drift velocity and β is the non-adiabaticity
of the current flow. Different contributions for the non-adiabatic torque have been …

Kidney failure is frequently observed during and after COVID-19, but it remains elusive whether
this is a direct effect of the virus. Here, we report that SARS-CoV-2 directly infects kidney …

The COVID-19 outbreak has rapidly spread on a global scale, affecting the economy and
public health systems throughout the world. In recent years, peptide-based therapeutics have …

Drivers for biodiversity loss are largely regulated by policies in non-environmental sectors.
The limited mainstreaming of biodiversity into respective policies remains yet to be analysed. …

The COVID-19 pandemic is a stark reminder that a barren global antiviral pipeline has grave
humanitarian consequences. Future pandemics could be prevented by accessible, easily …
