Predicting Crash Frequency for Urban Expressway considering Collision Types Using Real-Time Traffic Data by Hui Zhang, Siyao Li, Chaozhong Wu, Qi Zhang, Yafen Wang

“…Therefore, a crash frequency predicting model for urban expressway considering collision types is proposed in this study. The loop detector traffic data and historical crash data were aggregated based on the similarities of the traffic conditions 5 minutes before crash occurrence, among which crashes were divided by collision type (rear-end collision and side-impact collision). …”

The Modified Kimura's Technique for the Treatment of Duodenal Atresia by Biagio Zuccarello, Antonella Spada, Antonio Centorrino, Nunzio Turiaco, Maria Rosaria Chirico, Saveria Parisi

“…The i-DSD provides a safe procedure to protect the ampulla of Vater from injury and avoids any formation of a blind loop. The results show that patients who have i-DSD achieve full oral feeds in a very short time period and, consequently, the length of hospitalisation is also significantly reduced.…”

Quantitative analysis of different SLAM algorithms for geo-monitoring in an underground test field by Jing Li, Jörg Benndorf, Paweł Trybała

“…The results demonstrate that the HDL Graph SLAM achieves satisfactory precision, accuracy, and repeatability with a mean cloud-to-cloud distance of 0.12 m (with a standard deviation of 0.13 m) in an 80 m closed-loop measurement area. Although RTAB-Map exhibits better plane-capturing capabilities, the measurement results reveal instability and inaccuracies.…”

Proline isomerization modulates the bacterial IsdB/hemoglobin interaction: an atomic force spectroscopy study by Francesca Pancrazi, Omar De Bei, Francesco Lavecchia di Tocco, Marialaura Marchetti, Barbara Campanini, Salvatore Cannistraro, Stefano Bettati, Anna Rita Bizzarri

“…Remarkably, Pro173 does not directly interact with Hb, but undergoes cis–trans isomerization upon IsdB:Hb complex formation, coupled to folding-upon binding of the corresponding protein loop. Our results suggest that these events might represent the molecular basis for the stress-dependence of bond strength observed for wild type IsdB, shedding light on the mechanisms that govern the capability of SA to infect host cells.…”
