Nanomaterials (NMs) have gained prominence in technological advancements due to their
tunable physical, chemical and biological properties with enhanced performance over their�…

Arctium lappa, commonly known as burdock, is being promoted/recommended as a healthy
and nutritive food in Chinese societies. Burdock has been used therapeutically in Europe�…

Bioresource‐based green synthesis of nanoparticles has gained significant interest as an
emerging technology to reduce the toxicity of nanoparticles commonly associated with�…

Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are derived from the inner cell mass of the blastocyst.
Despite sharing the common property of pluripotency, hESCs are notably distinct from�…

Background—A number of noninvasive techniques have been used to predict the
effectiveness of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) in heart failure patients, in�…

Objectives: This study was designed to evaluate the role of cardiac resynchronization
therapy (CRT) in heart failure (HF) patients with narrow QRS complexes (< 120 ms) and�…

This paper develops a theory of financial intermediation that highlights the contribution of
intermediaries as informed agents in a market with imperfect information. We consider a�…

Objectives: This study was designed to investigate if tissue synchronization imaging (TSI) is
useful to identify regional wall delay and predict left ventricular (LV) reverse remodeling after�…

Embryonic stem (ES) cells are unique in their ability to self-renew indefinitely and maintain
pluripotency. These properties require transcription factors that specify the gene expression�…

Background—In patients with severe heart failure and dilated cardiomyopathy, cardiac
resynchronization therapy (CRT) improves left ventricular (LV) systolic function associated�…
