Hypertension Research, https://doi.org/10.1038/s41440-024-01843-z

None of the spironolactone trials in heart failure (HF) assessed the blood pressure (BP) responses to exercise, while conflicting results were reported for exercise capacity. In the HOMAGE trial, 527 patients at increased HF risk were randomized to u...

3D vasculature segmentation using localized hybrid level-set method (2014)
Journal Article
Hong, Q., Li, Q., Wang, B., Li, Y., Yao, J., Liu, K., & Wu, Q. (2014). 3D vasculature segmentation using localized hybrid level-set method. BioMedical Engineering OnLine, 13(1), 169. https://doi.org/10.1186/1475-925X-13-169

Background: Intensity inhomogeneity occurs in many medical images, especially in vessel images. Overcoming the difficulty due to image inhomogeneity is crucial for the segmentation of vessel image. Methods: This paper proposes a localized hybrid leve... Read More about 3D vasculature segmentation using localized hybrid level-set method.

2-(1-Aryliminoethylidene)quinolylnickel(II) dibromides: Synthesis, characterization and ethylene dimerization capability (2011)
Journal Article
Song, S., Li, Y., Redshaw, C., Wang, F., & Sun, W. H. (2011). 2-(1-Aryliminoethylidene)quinolylnickel(II) dibromides: Synthesis, characterization and ethylene dimerization capability. Journal of organometallic chemistry, 696(23), 3772-3778. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jorganchem.2011.08.037

A series of 2-(1-aryliminoethylidene)quinoline derivatives (L1-L9) and the nickel(II) dibromides (C1-C9) thereof, were synthesized and characterized. The molecular structures of C2 (R1 = Et, R2 = H, R = Me) and C9 (R1 = iPr, R2 = H, R = iPr) were con...
