The influence of operating parameters on the morphology of particles prepared by spray pyrolysis was investigated using a temperature-graded laminar flow aerosol reactor. Experimentally, zirconia particles were prepared by spray pyrolysis using an aqueous solution of zirconyl hydroxide chloride. Hollow particles were formed if the reactor temperature was high, the temperature gradient was too large, the flow rate of carrier gas was high, and the initial solute concentration was low. A numerical simulation of the pyrolysis process was developed using a combination of two previous models. The simulation results compared well with the experimental results.

4-D sonography provides a means of evaluating fetal facial expression early in the third trimester. It may be a key to predicting fetal brain function and well-being and an important modality in future fetal neurophysiologic research.

Preoperative rituximab effectively decreased the anti-ABO antibodies sufficiently to prevent the AMR irrespective of splenectomy. Splenectomy does not offer any immunological benefit in ABO-I LT with preoperative rituximab.

These findings suggest that FDG PET-derived parameters including SUV and especially percent change value may have the potential to predict response to chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy in patients with advanced gynecological cancer.
