1 Digre, Kathleen B.; Blumenthal, Deborah T.; Cessna, Melissa H.; Gopez, Evelyn V.; Shen, YueCarcinomatous meningitis as the presenting manifestation of gallbladder carcinoma: case report and review of the literatureThe primary tumors that typically cause carcinomatous meningitis include lung cancer, breast cancer, leukemia, lymphoma and melanoma. A variety of neurological signs and symptoms can be seen depending on the extent and location of the meningeal metastasis. Once the diagnosis of carcinomatous meningi...Carcinomatous Meningitis; Gallbladder Carcinoma; Leptomeningeal Metastasis; Meningeal Carcinomatosis; Cranial Neuropathy2004-10
2 Olson, Randall J.Effect of lens edge design versus anterior capsule overlap on posterior capsule opacificationPURPOSE: To determine whether lens edge design or anterior capsule overlap on the intraocular lens (IOL) has greater effect on posterior capsule opacification (PCO). DESIGN: Retrospective cohort clinical study. METHODS: Retrospective. SETTING: Academic clinical practice. PATIENT POPULATION: The pati...Posterior Capsular Opacification' Intraocular Lens; Anterior Capsular Opacification; Acrylic Lenses; Silicone Lenses2004-10
3 Lupton, John MarkMonitoring surface charge movement in single elongated semiconductor nanocrystalsWe demonstrate a universal correlation between the spectral linewidth and position of the excitonic transition in the spectral jitter observed from single elongated colloidal quantum dots. Breaking the symmetry of electron and hole confinement as well as of the spatial directions for surface charge ...Surface charge movement; Spectral linewidth; Excitonic transition; Spectral jitter; Colloidal nanocrystals2004-10
4 Liu, FengPressure-induced hard-to-soft transition of a single carbon nanotubeWe demonstrate a hydrostatic pressure-induced hard-to-soft transition of an isolated single wall carbon nanotube, using classical and ab initio constant-pressure molecular-dynamics simulations and continuum elastic theory analysis. At low pressure, the carbon tube is hard. Above a critical pressur...Carbon nanotubes; Hard-to-soft transition2004-10
5 Liu, FengStrain effect on adatom binding and diffusion in homo- and heteroepitaxies of Si and Ge on (001) SurfacesStrain dependence of adatom binding energies and diffusion barriers in homo- and heteroepitaxies of Si and Ge on s001d surface has been studied using first-principles calculations. In general, Si adatom binding energies and diffusion barriers are larger on Sis001d and Ges001d surfaces than a Ge ada...Strain effect; Adatom binding; Adatom diffusion; Adatoms; Heteroepitaxies; Homoepitaxies; (001) surfaces; Si; Ge2004-10
6 Gerton, JordanTip-enhanced fluorescence microscopy at 10 nanometer resolutionWe demonstrate unambiguously that the field enhancement near the apex of a laser-illuminated silicon tip decays according to a power law that is moderated by a single parameter characterizing the tip sharpness. Oscillating the probe in intermittent contact with a semiconductor nanocrystal strongly...2004-10
7 DeTar, CarletonTopological susceptibility in staggered fermion chiral perturbation theoryThe topological susceptibility of the vacuum in quantum chromodynamics has been simulated numerically using the Asqtad improved staggered fermion formalism. At nonzero lattice spacing, the residual fermion doublers (fermion tastes) in the staggered fermion formalism give contributions to the suscept...Staggered fermions; Chiral perturbation2004-10
8 Couldwell, William T.William Osler at McGill University: the baby professor and his early contributions to neurosurgeryBetween 1870 and 1884, as both a medical student and a member of the faculty, Sir William Osler performed approximately 1000 postmortem examinations at McGill University in Montreal. He conducted 786 of these examinations during his 7 years (1877-1884) of service as a pathologist at the M were caref...2004-10
