In this study, latent and etched ion tracks generated by high electronic excitation in alpha
quartz (α-SiO 2 ) were characterized. Single crystals of Y- and Z-cut α-SiO 2 were irradiated at …

We report the single-step synthesis of radioactive gold nanoparticles with an activity and size
appropriate for potential use in cancer treatment and diagnosis. Methods: A solution of 2 …

This study reports phonon confinement and strain effects in the Raman spectrum of ion‐irradiated
and subsequently etched α‐quartz. Y‐ and Z‐cut α‐quartz single crystals were …

This study reports a large reinforcement of the plasmon–phonon coupling in alpha quartz
achieved through the controlled deposition of gold nanoparticles into nanotemplates produced …

Objectives Left-sided methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) endocarditis
treated with cloxacillin has a poorer prognosis when the vancomycin minimum inhibitory …

Higher vancomycin MICs have been associated with more complicated courses and higher
mortality rates in patients with Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia and infective endocarditis (…

Three patients with the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome were studied. One of them had no past
history of relevant infections. The other two presented different degrees of humoral and cellular …

Background Only a small number of articles have investigated the relationship between
mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) and biomarkers. The aim of this systematic review was …

Subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma (SPTCL) is a rare cytotoxic cutaneous
lymphoma. Differential diagnosis with lupus erythematosus panniculitis (LEP) can be challenging …

Objective: The aim of the present study was to elucidate the effects of Mindfulness-based
interventions (MBIs) on salivary cortisol levels in healthy adult populations. Method: We …
