Segment tip geometry of sheet intrusions, II: Field observations of tip geometries and a model for evolving emplacement mechanisms

Igneous sheet intrusions are segmented across several orders of magnitude, with segment tip geometry commonly considered indicative of the propagation mechanism (brittle or non-brittle).Proposed propagation mechanisms are inferred Spacecraft to represent host rock mechanical properties during initial magma emplacement; typically, these models do no

A nomogram based on radiomics intermuscular adipose analysis to indicate arteriosclerosis in patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes

ObjectiveEarly identifying arteriosclerosis in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients could contribute to choosing proper subjects for early prevention.Here, we aimed to investigate whether radiomic intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) analysis could be used as a novel marker to indicate arteriosclerosis in newly diagnosed T2D patients.Metho

Functional neurological disorder: Engaging patients in treatment

Patients with a functional neurological disorder can be difficult to engage in treatment.The reasons for this are complex and may be related to physician, patient and health care system Bookcases issues.Providers contribute to difficulties in treatment engagement by giving confusing explanations for the patient symptoms, stigmatizing patients, and

Elimination testing with adapted scoring reduces guessing and anxiety in multiple-choice assessments, but does not increase grade average in comparison with negative marking.

BACKGROUND AND HYPOTHESES:This study is the first to offer an in-depth comparison of elimination testing with the scoring rule of Arnold & Arnold (hereafter referred to as elimination testing with adapted scoring) and negative marking.As such, this study is motivated by the search for an alternative for negative marking that still discourages guess
