According to Adrian Bejan, professor of mechanical engineering at Duke University, in Durham, North Carolina, the human eye is capable of interpreting an image featuring the golden ratio faster than any other.
We observe that the congestion-aware route selection can increase the evacuation ratio faster than the shortest-distance based route selection.
Their main advantages lie in their large surface-to-volume ratio, faster reaction kinetics, and good compatibility with biomolecules.
The outcomes of patients are shown in Table 3. Patients included in the MPDN group show a more favourable evolution of the pO2/FiO2 ratio, faster decrease of fever, as well as higher radiological improvement at seven days (P < 0.05).
Patients were classified into three groups according to their CRP ratio: fast responders if CRP ratio was ≤0.4; slow responders if CRP ratio was >0.4 and ≤0.8; and non-responders if CRP ratio was >0.8.
These advantages include small dimensions, laminar flow profile, velocity gradients, high surface to volume ratio, fast rate of processing, ability to perform analysis with an extremely small sample quantity, and ability to integrate into larger systems [38].

Nanosized TiO2-based photocatalysts have been regarded as the ideal candidates for solar energy conversion because of their peculiar inherent merits, such as large surface-to-volume ratio, fast and long-distance charge transport, and good physicochemical stability.
PCOS patients presented with increased hirsutism scores, waist-to-hip ratio, fasting insulin and triglycerides, serum concentrations of total and free testosterone, androstenedione, 17-hydroxyprogesterone, dehydroepiandrosterone-sulfate and luteinizing-hormone (Table 2).
Based on the same parameters, i.e., the ratio fasting proinsulin divided by fasting insulin and the ratio AUC proinsulin divided by AUC insulin, we could not detect any reliable association of the MTNR1B tagging SNPs with proinsulin conversion (all p≥0.04).
Those variables with correlations significant at P < 0·05 (BMI, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides, total/HDL cholesterol ratio, fasting glucose, fasting insulin and sex) were entered into the regression model.
