Background and study aims Mucosal traction as a supportive technique is very useful for endoscopists during endoscopy.For gastric submucosal tumor (SMT), our team explored a method of pulling the SMT with a snare combined with endoclips (PSMT-SE).This study preliminarily explored its feasibility to assist resection of gastric SMT.Patients and metho
Upper-Bound General Circulation of the Ocean: A Theoretical Exposition
This paper considers the general ocean circulation (GOC) within the thermodynamical closure of our climate theory, which aims to deduce the generic climate state from first principles.The preceding papers of this theory have reduced planetary fluids to warm/cold masses and determined their bulk properties, which provide prior constraints for the de
Highly Reconfigurable Microwave Photonic Waveform Generation Based on Time-Wavelength Interleaving
A photonic method of highly reconfigurable microwave waveform generation based on time-wavelength interleaving has been proposed and experimentally demonstrated.By modulating multi-wavelength laser sources with Mach-Zehnder modulators (MZMs), multiple Nyquist pulses corresponding to different wavelengths are generated and overlapped with each other
The Multidimensional Spectrum of Imagination: Images, Dreams, Hallucinations, and Active, Imaginative Perception
A theory of the structure and cognitive function of the human imagination that attempts to do justice to traditional intuitions about its psychological centrality is developed, largely through a detailed critique of the theory propounded by Colin McGinn.Like McGinn, I eschew the highly deflationary views of imagination, common amongst analytical ph
