Objective: To compare left ventricular (LV) function, ejection fraction (EF), end-diastolic volume (EDV), end-systolic volume (ESV), and regional wall motion analyzed in 256-slice dualsource coronary CT angiography (DSCT) with 2D transthoracic echocardiography (TTE). Materials and Methods: One hundred twelve patients suspected of coronary artery disease underwent DSCT and 2D-TTE within one week for LVEF, EDV, and ESV. The correlation between DSCT and 2D-TTE measurements was analyzed through linear regression and Bland- Altman analysis. Regional wall motion was visually scored with a 3-point scale (1, normal; 2, hypokinesia; 3, dysphagia, akinesia). Results: Average LVEF at 66.45%±1.27% (range 23%–85%) as determined on DSCT compared with 66.09%±1.01% (range 25%–84%) on 2D-TTE. LVEF exhibited a good correlation between DSCT and 2D-TTE (r=0.715; p<0.001). Good correlations between DSCT and 2D-TTE were demonstrated for LVEDV (r=0.732; p<0.001) and LVESV (r=0.841; p<0.001). Mean differences (±SD) of 1.78±24.10 mL (p<0.05) and 0.77±13.70 mL (p<0.05) were observed between DSCT and 2D-TTE for LVEDV and LVESV, respectively. LVEF was slightly overestimated with DSCT (0.52%±9.59%; p<0.05). Although the LVEF values calculated by DSCT and 2D-TTE were similar, EDV and ESV from DSCT were statistically higher than those from 2D-TTE (p<0.05). Agreement between DSCT and 2D-TTE in regional wall motion was 96.4%, κ=0.840. Conclusion: DSCT can provide comparable results to those using 2D-TTE for LV function (EF, EDV, and ESV) and regional wall motion assessment in a heterogeneous population.

<P>The main obstacles to achieving high electrochemical energy density while retaining high power density are the trade-offs of energy <I>versus</I> power and gravimetric <I>versus</I> volumetric density. Optimizing structural parameters is the key to circumvent these trade-offs. We report here the synthesis of carbon nanotube (CNT)-bridged graphene 3D building blocks <I>via</I> the Coulombic interaction between positively charged CNTs grafted by cationic surfactants and negatively charged graphene oxide sheets, followed by KOH activation. The CNTs were intercalated into the nanoporous graphene layers to build pillared 3D structures, which enhance accessible surface area and allow fast ion diffusion. The resulting graphene/CNT films are free-standing and flexible with a high electrical conductivity of 39 400 S m<SUP>–1</SUP> and a reasonable mass density of 1.06 g cm<SUP>–3</SUP>. The supercapacitors fabricated using these films exhibit an outstanding electrochemical performance in an ionic liquid electrolyte with a maximum energy density of 117.2 Wh L<SUP>–1</SUP> or 110.6 Wh kg<SUP>–1</SUP> at a maximum power density of 424 kW L<SUP>–1</SUP> or 400 kW kg<SUP>–1</SUP>, which is based on thickness or mass of total active material.</P><P><B>Graphic Abstract</B> <IMG SRC='http://pubs.acs.org/appl/literatum/publisher/achs/journals/content/ancac3/2015/ancac3.2015.9.issue-2/nn507079x/production/images/medium/nn-2014-07079x_0008.gif'></P><P><A href='http://pubs.acs.org/doi/suppl/10.1021/nn507079x'>ACS Electronic Supporting Info</A></P>

Le, Viet Thong,Kim, Heetae,Ghosh, Arunabha,Kim, Jaesu,Chang, Jian,Vu, Quoc An,Pham, Duy Tho,Lee, Ju-Hyuck,Kim, Sang-Woo,Lee, Young Hee American Chemical Society 2013 ACS NANO Vol.7 No.7
<P>We report a coaxial fiber supercapacitor, which consists of carbon microfiber bundles coated with multiwalled carbon nanotubes as a core electrode and carbon nanofiber paper as an outer electrode. The ratio of electrode volumes was determined by a half-cell test of each electrode. The capacitance reached 6.3 mF cm<SUP>–1</SUP> (86.8 mF cm<SUP>–2</SUP>) at a core electrode diameter of 230 μm and the measured energy density was 0.7 μWh cm<SUP>–1</SUP> (9.8 μWh cm<SUP>–2</SUP>) at a power density of 13.7 μW cm<SUP>–1</SUP> (189.4 μW cm<SUP>–2</SUP>), which were much higher than the previous reports. The change in the cyclic voltammetry characteristics was negligible at 180° bending, with excellent cycling performance. The high capacitance, high energy density, and power density of the coaxial fiber supercapacitor are attributed to not only high effective surface area due to its coaxial structure and bundle of the core electrode, but also all-carbon materials electrodes which have high conductivity. Our coaxial fiber supercapacitor can promote the development of textile electronics in near future.</P><P><B>Graphic Abstract</B> <IMG SRC='http://pubs.acs.org/appl/literatum/publisher/achs/journals/content/ancac3/2013/ancac3.2013.7.issue-7/nn4016345/production/images/medium/nn-2013-016345_0008.gif'></P><P><A href='http://pubs.acs.org/doi/suppl/10.1021/nn4016345'>ACS Electronic Supporting Info</A></P>

A construction project is a designed product made up of labors, materials, and installations in the project positioned on the ground and may include the underground and ground section, and the section in water or on the water surface. It is a civil, industrial, transport, agricultural and rural development, infrastructure, or some other. A key phase in the life cycle of these construction projects is the implementation when building products are made directly with workers, equipment, materials, and managers. If there is a lack of management experience, information, and problem-solving solutions to tackle the risks faced by contractors, especially foreign ones, will fail in controlling the project's cost. This study was conducted with investigations, discussions, and evaluation of the factors that lead to cost overruns in the construction projects of international contractors in Vietnam. The principal component analysis (PCA) showed that those factors that influence cost overruns these construction projects fall into five general groups, including factors related to (i) the owners, (ii) the foreign contractors, (iii) the subcontractors and suppliers, (iv) state management, and (v) the project itself. Besides, the study proposes solutions to limit cost overruns in construction projects and improve the profitability of international contractors in Vietnam.

We investigate the impacts of tariff, tariff-rate quota, conformity assessment, and traceability requirements set by the rice importers using panel data of 17 rice exporters exporting to 119 countries in two years 2015 and 2018, using both Ordinary least square (OLS) and Poisson pseudo maximum likelihood (PPLM) methods. Results from our gravity models strongly indicate that tariff and tariff rate quota remain significantly detrimental to the world’s rice exporters because these measures place downward pressure on the rice exporters’ prices and the importers’ import quantity, creating barriers to market participation. Our study also provides strong evidence about the role of origin certificates in allowing rice exporters to gain access to foreign markets. Meanwhile, regulatory standards such as traceability requirements and logistical and distributional requirements imposed by the rice importers are found to be major obstacles to rice importation from lessdeveloped countries. Our study provides insights into tariff and non-tariff barriers existing in the global rice market, which is likely to assist policymakers operating in developing countries to help shape their policies and bolster rice competitiveness.

This study provides an update on the movement ecology of the Sunda pangolin (Manis javanica) in threedistinct ecoregions of Vietnam. Using radio telemetry, we tracked 12 pangolins rescued from the illegalwildlife trade and translocated to protected areas. We found that the average home range of translocatedSunda pangolins was 1.58 km2 and did not vary significantly between sexes, mass, or habitat. However,there was a marked decrease in range size with decreasing sizes of suitable forest space and terrain, or alocalized abundance of resources in some locations. Pangolins were most active from 03:00 to 04:00. Thestudy highlights the need for further research to fully understand the ecology of this unique and enig matic species.

Strongyloidiasis, a chronic helminth infection caused by the parasitic nematode Strongyloides stercoralis, has various clinical manifestations. Although rare, duodenal obstructions and venous thromboembolism are possible complications of strongyloidiasis. This paper presents the case of a 47-year-old Vietnamese male with a history of right lower limb edema, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal discomfort lasting for four months. Venous Doppler ultrasound detected a thrombus in the right femoral vein, while an abdominal CT scan revealed a mass lesion suggestive of a lower bile duct tumor. Esophageogastroduodenoscopy showed a friable duodenal cap mucosa with multiple ulcers and edematous mucosa of the second part of the duodenum that caused a partial lumen obstruction. The final histological examination of the biopsy specimen revealed chronic duodenitis with larvae consistent with Strongyloides stercoralis. The patient was treated with Ivermectin for two weeks and anticoagulation therapy for three months. After treatment and a six-month follow-up, the patient's gastrointestinal symptoms and leg swelling resolved completely. This is the first documented case of a patient in Vietnam with strongyloidiasis who presented with venous thromboembolism and duodenal obstruction.

A combination of Polycarbonate (PC) material and Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), fabricated using an injection molding machine, has been investigated to determine its advantages, as studied in Ref. 1). This paper aims to investigate the optimization of PMMA/PC blend for both tensile yield strength and impact strength. Furthermore, interaction effects of process conditions on mechanical properties including tensile yield strength and impact strength of PMMA/PC blend by injection molding process are interpreted in this study. Tensile and impact specimens are designed following ASTM, type V, and are fabricated by injection molding process. The processing conditions such as melt temperature, mold temperature, packing pressure, and cooling time are applied; each factor has three levels. As a result, in comparison with optimization of separated responses, mechanical properties of PMMA/PC are found to decrease when optimizing both tensile and impact strengths simultaneously. The melt temperature is found to be the most significant interaction parameter with the mold temperature and packing pressure. In addition, there is more interaction between the mold temperature and cooling time. This investigation provides a useful understanding of the control of injection molding processing of polymer blends in optical application.

Left pulmonary artery sling (LPAS) is a rare congenital anomaly in which the left pulmonary artery (LPA) originates from the posterior aspect of the right pulmonary artery and courses between the trachea and esophagus to reach the left lung. This anomaly causes distal tracheal and/or right main stem bronchus compression. Most LPAS cases are associated with early symptom onset, around 2 month-old, and have severe respiratory distress within the first year of life. There are two major types of LPAS based on the location of LPA and abnormal bronchial branching. The diagnosis can be made by using various imaging modalities. Herein, we present the imaging characteristics on multidetector computed tomography of 5 LPAS cases with respiratory distress (2 months to 12 months).
