We have successfully developed a 1020 MHz (24.0 T) NMR magnet, establishing the world’s
highest magnetic field in high resolution NMR superconducting magnets. The magnet is a …

We have developed a new poly(vinyl alcohol) hydrogel (PVA‐H) of increased physical strength
through a new manufacturing process. Its mechanical properties have been found to be …

Purpose To compare the ease of tracheal intubation facilitated by the gum elastic bougie or
the malleable stylet while applying cricoid pressure. Methods Sixty American Society of …

Objective To determine the efficacy of a 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine in
people at high risk of pneumococcal pneumonia. Design Prospective, randomised, placebo …

Uniformity of thin film transistor (TFT) characteristics was evaluated by varying the channel
size. As channel length decreased and width fell below 1 µm, uniformity was degraded …

Semiconductor blue-multi-laser-diode annealing (BLDA) for amorphous Si film was
performed to obtain a film containing uniform polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) grains as a low …

The carrier concentration and mobility of intrinsic holes in poly-Ge films grown by solid-phase
crystallization (SPC) were investigated. The two-step SPC method, consisting of low-…

We have attempted to develop an artificial articular cartilage on the basis of a new viewpoint
of joint biomechanics in which lubrication and load-bearing mechanisms of natural and …

Articular cartilage is subjected to dynamic compressive loading during normal activity which
influences chondrocyte metabolism through various mechanotransduction pathways. A well …

A case of spontaneous rupture of a cavernous hemangioma of the liver with a successful
hepatic resection after transcatheter hepatic arterial embolization is reported. Twenty-eight …
