Varner, Michael W. | Asthma during pregnancy | OBJECTIVE: To determine neonatal and maternal outcomes stratified by asthma severity during pregnancy by using the 1993 National Asthma Education Program Working Group on Asthma and Pregnancy definitions of asthma severity. The primary hypothesis was that moderate or severe asthmatics would have an ... | Asthma; Infant, Newborn; Pregnancy Outcomes | 2004-01 |

Olson, Randall J. | Clinical experience with 21-gauge manual microphacoemulsification using Sovereign WhiteStar Technology in eyes with dense cataract | PURPOSE: To present a series of patients who had 21-gauge microphacoemulsification using Sovereign WhiteStar technology. SETTING: John A. Moran Eye Center, University of Utah School of Medicine, Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. METHODS: Eighteen consecutive patients with cataracts judged to be 3+ or 4+ on... | Cataract; Microsurgery; Phacoemulsification; Postoperative Complications; Visual Acuity | 2004-01 |

Sokolsky, Pierre | Effect of clouds on apertures of space-based air fluorescence detectors | Space-based ultra-high-energy cosmic ray detectors observe fluorescence light from extensive air showers produced by these particles in the troposphere. Clouds can scatter and absorb this light and produce systematic errors in energy determination and spectrum normalization. We study the possibilit... | Fluorescence; Cloud detection; Extensive air showers | 2004-01 |

Liew, Michael; Erali, Maria; Page, Sam; Hillyard, David R.; Wittwer, Carl T. | Hepatitis C genotyping by denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography | Determination of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype for infected patients increasingly has become accepted as the standard of care. Genotype assignment helps in assessing disease prognosis and assists in establishing the appropriate duration of treatment. The great genetic diversity of HCV, with 1... | Base Sequence; 5' Untranslated Regions; Genotype; Hepacivirus; Molecular Sequence Data | 2004-01 |

DeTar, Carleton | High-precision lattice QCD confronts experiment | The recently developed Symanzik-improved staggered-quark discretization allows unquenched lattice-QCD simulations with much smaller (and more realistic) quark masses than previously possible. To test this formalism, we compare experiment with a variety of nonperturbative calculations in QCD draw... | Staggered quarks | 2004-01 |

Liu, Feng | Local strain-mediated chemical potential control of quantum dot self-organization in heteroepitaxy | From observations of self-assembly of Ge quantum dots directed by substrate morphology, we propose the concept of control of ordering in heteroepitaxy by a local strain-mediated surface chemical potential. Using quite simple lithography, we demonstrate directed quantum dot ordering. The strain part ... | Self-organization; Heteroepitaxy; Chemical potential control; Ge quantum dots | 2004-01 |

Newman, Lex | Rocking the foundations of cartesian knowledge: critical notice of Janet Broughton, descartes's method of doubt | Janet Broughton's Descartes's Method of Doubt†1 is a systematic study of the role of doubt in Descartes's epistemology. The book has two parts. Part 1 focuses on the development of doubt in the First Meditation, exploring such topics as the motivation behind methodic doubt; the targeted audience... | Super-indubitables; Canonical circularity; Clear and distinct truths' | 2004-01 |

Vardeny, Zeev Valentine | Ultrafast spectroscopy of excitons in single-walled carbon nanotubes | We studied the femtosecond dynamics of photoexcitations in films containing semiconducting and metallic single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), using various pump-probe wavelengths and intensities.We found that confined excitons and charge carriers with subpicosecond dynamics dominate the ultrafas... | Ultrafast spectroscopy; Excitons; Single-walled carbon nanotubes; SWNT | 2004-01 |
