Background Critical examination of the quality and validity of available allergic rhinitis (AR)
literature is necessary to improve understanding and to appropriately translate this …

Background In the 5 years that have passed since the publication of the 2018 International
Consensus Statement on Allergy and Rhinology: Allergic Rhinitis (ICAR‐Allergic Rhinitis …

Pulmonary surfactant research has an increasing impact on treatment considerations in
adult respiratory disorders, above all acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) …

New results about relaxation dynamics of optically excited electrons in metals, mostly gold
and nickel films, are presented. Emphasis is on electron temperature near the surface as …

Femtosecond laser pulses were applied to study the energy deposition depth and transfer to
the lattice for Au, Ni, and Mo films of varying thickness. The onset of melting, defined here as …

Since the invention of the first magnetic memory disk in 1954, much effort has been put into
enhancing the speed, bit density and reliability of magnetic memory devices. In the case of …

Ultrafast magnetization dynamics of nickel has been studied for different degrees of
electronic excitation, using pump-probe second-harmonic generation (SHG) with 150 fs, 800 …

Breath tests cover the fraction of nitric oxide in expired gas (F ENO), volatile organic
compounds (VOCs), variables in exhaled breath condensate (EBC) and other …

The cytokine IL-6 acts via a specific receptor complex that consists of the membrane-bound
IL-6 receptor (mIL-6R) or the soluble IL-6 receptor (sIL-6R) and glycoprotein 130 (gp130). In …

Due to the limits of conventional perpendicular magnetic recording, it appears that
alternative technologies are needed at areal densities> 500 Gb/in 2. Heat-assisted magnetic …
