M-HIFU inhibits tumor growth, suppresses STAT3 activity and enhances tumor specific immunity in a transplant tumor model of prostate cancer.
(PLoS One, 2012)OBJECTIVE: In this study, we explored the use of mechanical high intensity focused ultrasound (M-HIFU) as a neo-adjuvant therapy prior to surgical resection of the primary tumor. We also investigated the role of signal transducer ... -

Machiavelli’s Critique of Classical Philosophy and His Case for The Political Life
(Perspectives on Political Science, 2021-01-01)This article illuminates how Machiavelli’s critique of classical philosophy is fundamental to his teaching. It will argue that Machiavelli criticized classical philosophy for its ineffectiveness and its endorsement of the ... -
Machine Learning and Precision Medicine in Emergency Medicine: The Basics.
(Cureus, 2021-09)As machine learning (ML) and precision medicine become more readily available and used in practice, emergency physicians must understand the potential advantages and limitations of the technology. This narrative review focuses ... -
Machine learning risk prediction of mortality for patients undergoing surgery with perioperative SARS-CoV-2: the COVIDSurg mortality score.
(The British journal of surgery, 2021-11)<jats:p>To support the global restart of elective surgery, data from an international prospective cohort study of 8492 patients (69 countries) was analysed using artificial intelligence (machine learning techniques) to develop ... -
Machine Learning to Predict Developmental Neurotoxicity with High-throughput Data from 2D Bio-engineered Tissues
There is a growing need for fast and accurate methods for testing developmental neurotoxicity across several chemical exposure sources. Current approaches, such as in vivo animal studies, and assays of animal and human primary ... -
Macitentan (Opsumit) for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension

Macrophage cells secrete factors including LRP1 that orchestrate the rejuvenation of bone repair in mice.
(Nature communications, 2018-12-05)The pace of repair declines with age and, while exposure to a young circulation can rejuvenate fracture repair, the cell types and factors responsible for rejuvenation are unknown. Here we report that young macrophage cells ... -
Macrosystems ecology: Understanding ecological patterns and processes at continental scales
(Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, 2014-02-01)Macrosystems ecology is the study of diverse ecological phenomena at the scale of regions to continents and their interactions with phenomena at other scales. This emerging subdiscipline addresses ecological questions and ... -
“Madri, Sorelle e Figlie d’Italia: Il Risorgimento nei Versi di Concettina Ramondetta Fileti (1829- 1900), Teresa Iacono Roccadario (1842-1939) e Lauretta Li Greci (1833-1849)”
Obiettivo del saggio è riscattare dall’oblio tre poetesse siciliane che cercarono di affermare attraverso l’espressione poetica la propria esperienza risorgimentale: Concettina Ramondetta Fileti (1829-1900), Teresa Iacono ... -
Magic moment? Maternal marriage for children born out of wedlock.
(Demography, 2014-08)To test the existence of the "magic moment" for parental marriage immediately post-birth and to inform policies that preferentially encourage biological over step parent marriage, this study estimates the incidence and stability ... -
Magnesian inviolability
(Transactions of the American Philological Association, 2009-09-01)In 221/20 the citizens of Magnesia on the Maeander sought to create crowned games in honor of Artemis Leukophryene. The goddess had appeared to them and Delphi instructed that "it is more agreeable and better for those who ... -
Magnetic levitation of metamaterial bodies enhanced with magnetostatic surface resonances
(Physical Review B - Condensed Matter and Materials Physics, 2012-02-27)We propose that macroscopic objects built from negative-permeability metamaterials may experience resonantly enhanced magnetic force in low-frequency magnetic fields. Resonant enhancement of the time-averaged force originates ... -
Magnetic metamaterial superlens for increased range wireless power transfer.
(Sci Rep, 2014-01-10)The ability to wirelessly power electrical devices is becoming of greater urgency as a component of energy conservation and sustainability efforts. Due to health and safety concerns, most wireless power transfer (WPT) schemes ... -
Magnetic Resonance Biomarkers in Radiation Oncology.
(Medical physics, 2021-04-17)A magnetic resonance (MR) biologic marker (biomarker) is a measurable quantitative characteristic that is an indicator of normal biological and pathogenetic processes or a response to therapeutic intervention derived from ... -
Magnetic resonance imaging of graded skeletal muscle injury in live rats.
(Environ Health Insights, 2014)INTRODUCTION: Increasing number of stretch-shortening contractions (SSCs) results in increased muscle injury. METHODS: Fischer Hybrid rats were acutely exposed to an increasing number of SSCs in vivo using a custom-designed ... -

Magnetic resonance water proton relaxation in protein solutions and tissue: T(1rho) dispersion characterization.
(PLoS One, 2010-01-05)BACKGROUND: Image contrast in clinical MRI is often determined by differences in tissue water proton relaxation behavior. However, many aspects of water proton relaxation in complex biological media, such as protein solutions ... -
Magnetic stimulation with arbitrary waveform shapes
(IFMBE Proceedings, 2013-04-16)Device technology for magnetic stimulation is still extremely limited regarding waveform dynamics and flexibility. Existing systems are well-known to be very inefficient from an energy perspective. In addition, neither a ... -
Magnetic superlens-enhanced inductive coupling for wireless power transfer
(Journal of Applied Physics, 2012-03-15)We investigate numerically the use of a negative-permeability perfect lens for enhancing wireless power transfer between two current carrying coils. The negative permeability slab serves to focus the flux generated in the ...
