Three-dimensional ultrasound for carotid vessel wall volume measurement by Ying-An Chen, Pei-Ya Chen, Shinn-Kuang Lin

“…Gray-scale 3D images from the distal common carotid artery (CCA) to internal carotid artery on both sides were acquired using a single-sweep 3D transducer and analyzed offline by using the vascular plaque quantification function of the Philips QLAB software. Then, the 3D IMT(QLAB intima–media thickness [QIMT]), total plaque volume (TPV), and VWV were measured by a neurologist and a technician, and the interobserver variability was assessed. …”

Development characteristics and potential of fault-fracture reservoir in southwest margin of Ordos Basin by HE Faqi, LI Junlu, GAO Yilong, WU Jinwei, BAI Xingying, GAO Dun

“…The induced fracture zone's proximity to the fault correlates with higher production capacity, demonstrating the spatial impact of fault structures on reservoir productivity. 3） The production characteristics of fracture wells are categorized into three stages: ① the fracture system acts as the high yield stage; ② the fracture system serves as the storage stage and plays the role of diversion; ③ the fracture's primarily function in diversion. This research significantly increases the proportion of high-yield wells in the fault-fracture reservoir, providing crucial insights for guiding efficient, ongoing exploration and development activities in the Mesozoic reservoirs on the southwest margin of the basin. …”

Age-Related Differences in Bimanual Isometric Force Tracking by Elisa Galofaro, Nicola Vale, Giulia Ballardini, Nicola Smania, Maura Casadio

“…Notably, the percentage of total force exerted by the left hand was negatively correlated with the disparity between the left and right coefficients of variation. This study confirms previous findings on the effect of aging on bimanual force control and provides evidence suggesting that the contribution of each hand may depend on the variability in force exertion.…”
