Background Homeless people face many barriers to obtaining health care, and their attitudes
toward seeking health care services may be shaped in part by previous encounters with …

The mechanism of formation of fibrillar collagen with a banding periodicity much greater
than the 67 nm of native collagen, ie the so-called fibrous long spacing (FLS) collagen, has …

Nanodissection of single fibrous long spacing (FLS) type collagen fibrils by atomic force
microscopy (AFM) reveals hierarchical internal structure: Fibrillar subcomponents with diameters …

High-risk cancer resection surgeries are increasingly being performed at fewer, more specialised,
and higher-volume institutions across Canada. The resulting increase in travel time for …

We utilize the atomic force microscope (AFM) to perform a careful nanodissection procedure
on a single collagen fibril. By precisely incising the fibril and then peeling away exterior …

Objective To compare length of stay and total hospital costs among patients admitted to
hospital under the care of family physicians who were their usual health care providers in the …

Background Esophageal cancer is associated with poor prognosis. Diagnosis is often delayed,
resulting in presentation with advanced disease. We developed a clinical score to predict …

Collagen monomers form a variety of constructs in solution preferentially, depending upon the
conditions to which they are subjected. Depending upon the solution conditions, the length…

This study was performed to compare the differences in pH, myofibril fragmentation index (MFI),
total protein solubility (TPS), sarcoplasmic protein solubility (SPS), myofibrillar protein …

… The sample is then mounted on a vacuum chuck of a spinner. Spin coating is commonly
used to coat thin films in order to obtain good uniformity of the films. The thicknesses are usually …
