Article Title: A Method for Predicting Collagen Fiber Realignment in Non-Planar Tissue Surfaces as Applied to Glenohumeral Capsule During Clinically Relevant Deformation

doi: 10.1115/1.4026105

Figure Lengend Snippet: (a) Data points were generated on the surface of a unit sphere using matlab rand function. (b). Areal stretch after extension in x- and y-directions (x = 2X, y = 3Y, z = Z). Arrows show the direction of the major principal strain. (c) Main fiber direction μ (arrows) and normalized orientation index NOI (contour plots) in un-deformed configuration. (d) Main fiber direction μ and normalized orientation index NOI following axial extension (λx = 1.5).

Article Snippet: The un-deformed main fiber orientation μ was assigned randomly for each element using the rand function in matlab (The Mathworks Inc., Natick, MA).

Article Title: Use of oral cholera vaccine as a vaccine probe to determine the burden of culture-negative cholera

doi: 10.1371/journal.pntd.0007179

Figure Lengend Snippet: Incidence rates and protective effect of cholera culture-negative and -positive AWD and culture-negative severe AWD between vaccine and placebo groups stratified by age group and cholera season.

Article Snippet: Using OCV as a vaccine probe to detect culture-negative cholera during the first two years of follow-up in a placebo-controlled, randomized trial in Matlab, we failed to detect OCV protection against all episodes of cholera culture-negative AWD, by age groups, for cholera season, or by disease severity.
