Prediction of Occult Lymph Node Metastasis in Head and Neck Cancer with CD31 Vessel Quantification

Objective The management of occult lymph node metastasis (LNM) in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma has been a matter of controversy for decades. The vascular density within the tumor microenvironment, as an indicator of ongoing angiogenesis, could con ...

Correlation between podoplanin expression and extracapsular spread in squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity using subjective immunoreactivity scores and semiquantitative image analysis

Background. The correlation between podoplanin expression and extracapsular spread in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) has never been reported. The purpose of this study was to assess the predictive value of podoplanin expression for this para ...

Case study – Delta restoration at a steep river mouth

Anton Schleiss, Giovanni De Cesare, Stéphanie Joëlle André, Stéphane Christian Olivier Terrier

The mouth of the Baye de Clarens torrent in Switzerland is currently constrained by lateral training walls, sequent sills and a bridge with a low hydraulic capacity. Due to a bed load trap upstream, few sediments reach the mouth. To improve flood protectio ...

Air temperature investigation in microenvironment around a human body

Dusan Licina

The aim of this study is to investigate the temperature boundary layer around a human body in a quiescent indoor environment. The air temperature, mean in time and standard deviation of the temperature fluctuations around a breathing thermal manikin are ex ...

Generalization of motor resonance during the observation of hand, mouth, and eye movements

Michela Bassolino

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) of the motor cortex shows that hand action observation (AO) modulates corticospinal excitability (CSE). CSE modulation alternatively maps low-level kinematic characteristics or higher-level features, like object-dire ...

Microfluidic Droplet-Based Liquid–Liquid Extraction and On-Chip IR Spectroscopy Detection of Cocaine in Human Saliva

Nico de Rooij, Hans Peter Herzig, Lubos Hvozdara, Philip Wägli, Yu-Chi Chang

We present a portable microsystem to quantitatively detect cocaine in human saliva. In this system, we combine a microfluidic-based multiphase liquid-liquid extraction method to transfer cocaine continuously from IR-light-absorbing saliva to an IR-transpar ...

Droplet-based Liquid-Liquid Extraction and On-Chip IR-Waveguide-Spectroscopy Detection of Cocaine in Human Saliva

Hans Peter Herzig, Peter Van der Wal, Lubos Hvozdara, Philip Wägli, Yu-Chi Chang

We present a portable microsystem to quantitatively detect cocaine in human saliva. The chip combines a simple microfluidic method for multiphase liquid-liquid extraction to transfer cocaine from IR-light absorbing saliva to an IRtransparent solvent with t ...

Single Mode Mid-infrared Waveguide for Evanescent Sensor Scheme in Liquids

Hans Peter Herzig, Vincent Paeder, Lubos Hvozdara, Philip Wägli, Yu-Chi Chang

A Si/Ge based, single mode, mid-infrared optical waveguide, is used as an evanescent sensor in liquid matrix. The selectivity is achieved by the use of quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) tuned to the maximum absorption of a given analyte. The cocaine detection ...

Semianalytical approach to the design of photonic crystal cavities

Elyahou Kapon, Kirill Atlasov, Alessandro Surrente, Marco Felici

Most current methods for the engineering of photonic crystal (PhC) cavities rely on cumbersome, computationally demanding trial-and-error procedures. In the present work, we take a different approach to the problem of cavity design, by seeking to establish ...
