Background: Critically ill patients commonly experience skeletal muscle wasting that may
predict clinical outcome. Ultrasound is a noninvasive method that can measure muscle …

Background: In critically ill patients, muscle atrophy is associated with long‐term disability
and mortality. Bedside ultrasound may quantify muscle mass, but it has not been validated in …

The solubilization and phase equilibria of water-in-oil (w/o) microemulsions have been studied
to elucidate how the molecular structure of various components of microemulsions and …

The effect of n-alkanols from C 1 to C 5 on both equilibrium and dynamic properties of
sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) micellar solutions has been investigated using electrical …

Background: In critically ill patients, muscle loss is associated with adverse outcomes. Raw
bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) parameters (eg, phase angle [PA] and impedance …

The solubilization and phase equilibria of w/o microemulsions have been shown to be
dependent on two phenomenological parameters, namely the spontaneous curvature and …

Background: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a medical condition with major complications
and health care costs. Previous research has shown that diet and exercise can improve and …

Pyrolysis of unfilled as well as Ti‐metal‐filled poly(siloxane) preceramic polymers, heated at
1350 deg; C in N 2 , Ar, or NH 3 , was evaluated in terms of the effect of atmosphere on …

The author discusses the study of structural dynamics of microemulsions and provides some
relevant results. Microemulsions have recently aroused much interest as novel media for …

Squeeze-film damping on microresonators is a significant damping source even when the
surrounding gas is highly rarefied. This article presents a general modeling approach based …
