Objective Low copy number (CN) of complement C4 isoforms and high CN of retroviral HERV‐K elements are known risk factors for many immune‐mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs), often showing sex‐biased effects. Here, we assessed whether CN variation within the C4 gene contributes to giant cell arteritis (GCA) and IgA vasculitis (IgAV), two complex ...

“A simple 1D transfer matrix model of a battery is introduced and parametrized using harvested individual cell components at 0 % and 100 % SoC. This model allows for the calculation of group velocity and attenuation. The results of the model show good agreement with measured values, highlighting increased attenuation and group velocity at the ...
