Therapeutic Apheresis in Nigeria: A Multi‐Center Summary of Abstracts From the Inaugural Nigerian Society for Apheresis Scientific Meeting

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic apheresis (TA) is an established treatment modality for hematologic, neurologic, and immunologic disorders, yet access remains severely limited in sub‐Saharan Africa. Donor apheresis, including platelet apheresis collection from healthy donors, represents an important complementary modality supporting blood product ...

Grid Forming Inverter With Increased Short-Circuit Contribution to Address Inverter-Based Microgrid Protection Challenges

IEEE Open Journal of the Industrial Electronics Society
Substantial differences in fault levels between grid-tied and islanded modes is one of the primary challenges of microgrid protection. During grid-tied mode, the bulk grid provides significant short-circuit, while during islanded operation the short ...

Forecasting the Dialysis Burden in Japan: Validation‐Based Projections of Prevalence and Incidence Through 2050

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Japan has one of the highest dialysis prevalence rates worldwide and a shrinking, aging population. Whether dialysis burden has entered a sustained post‐peak phase or whether recent declines partly reflect pandemic‐related disruptions remains uncertain.

Advanced Clustering and Optimisation Techniques for Adaptive Protection in AC Microgrids With Hardware‐in‐the‐Loop Testing

Energy Science & Engineering
This study introduces an advanced adaptive protection approach for AC power systems, designed to address key limitations in current clustering‐based relay coordination methods. Using K‐means, hierarchical, and spectral clustering techniques, the proposed

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Integrated Curve and Setting Optimization for DOCRs in Microgrid Environments with a BRKGA-MILP Matheuristic

Energies
Guaranteeing the effective coordination of directional overcurrent relays (DOCRs) within microgrids (MGs) is a complex nonlinear problem due to bidirectional power flows, varying fault current levels, and the need for adaptive operation across multiple ...

Multi-Set Space-Time Shift Keying Assisted Adaptive Inter-Layer FEC for Wireless Video Streaming

IEEE Access, 2019
The scalable video coding extension of H.265/high efficiency video coding is capable of supporting diverse video resolutions. Due to the fact that the enhancement layer (EL) is encoded and decoded with the aid of the base layer (BL), the decodability of ...

Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Short-Circuit Calculation and Overcurrent Relay Protection in AC Microgrids: A Review

Energies
AC microgrids with high penetration of inverter-based distributed energy resources (IBDERs) introduce major protection challenges due to reduced fault current levels, bidirectional power flows, and control-dependent fault behavior. Under these conditions,
