Background
Rupture of the cap of a vulnerable plaque present in a coronary vessel may cause myocardial infarction and death. Cap rupture occurs when the peak cap stress exceeds the cap strength. The mechanical stress within a cap depends on the plaque morphology and the material characteristics of the plaque components. A parametric study was conducted to assess the effect of intima stiffness and plaque morphology on peak cap stress. 相似文献2.

1. Crab spiders (Thomisidae) indirectly affect insect flower‐visitor and flowering plant interactions by consuming and altering the behaviour of insects. 2. Although one expects insect flower‐visitors to avoid crab spiders actively, some crab spider species are known to attract flower‐visitors. Crab spiders may use UV signalling to lure potential prey to the flowers they occupy. 3. In the present study, a field experiment was conducted to examine the effects of crab spiders occupying three prairie plant species for the insect flower‐visitor community. Pollinating insects were significantly attracted to inflorescences with crab spiders compared to inflorescences without crab spiders for two plant species, and herbivorous insects were attracted to inflorescences with crab spiders for one of these plant species. The two flowering plant species with increased pollinator visitation showed increased seed weights for plants with crab spiders, indicating crab spider presence indirectly increased pollination. 4. To test the UV signalling hypothesis, inflorescences with crab spiders of one plant species were observed under both a UV‐blocking plastic and a clear plastic control. Contrary to our prediction, flower‐visitors were not more likely to land on inflorescences under the clear plastic; the UV signalling hypothesis was not supported. Other unknown explanations underlie prey attraction to inflorescences with crab spiders. 相似文献

Background
The process of restenosis after a stenting procedure is related to local biomechanical environment. Arterial wall stresses caused by the interaction of the stent with the vascular wall and possibly stress induced stent strut fracture are two important parameters. The knowledge of these parameters after stent deployment in a patient derived 3D reconstruction of a diseased coronary artery might give insights in the understanding of the process of restenosis. 相似文献9.

We compared genotypes at eight (AC)n microsatellite loci in domestic sheep
(Ovis aries) and wild Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep (O. canadensis). The
domestic sheep had greater genetic variation, higher allele-size variances,
and larger allele sizes than the wild sheep. Accumulating evidence from
higher taxonomic comparisons shows that these parameters are biased if
microsatellite loci are selected in one taxon and used in another. Our
results demonstrate similar biases between congeneric species. We compared
standard measures of genetic variation, differentiation, and distance
within and between species (H, D, FST) to newer measures based on
allele-size variance (SW, SB, RST). The size-based distances better
detected species-level divergence, but standard measures better
distinguished allopatric populations. Empirical calibration of these
measures at the subspecies level is needed to establish their useful
ranges.
