Macrophage extracellular vesicles deliver Mef2d proteins to aggravate Bacteroides fragilis pathogenicity in type 2 diabetes arterial calcification

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Bacteroides fragilis is associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D) arterial calcification and can be activated by macrophage‐derived extracellular vesicles (EVs). BF takes up EVs via receptor‐mediated endocytosis, and activation is induced by EV‐derived Mef2d, thereby inhibiting ArsR family transcriptional regulator transcription.

From Empire to Aid: Analysing Persistence of Colonial Legacies in Foreign Aid to Africa

open access: yesJournal of International Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For decades now, Western development agencies and donors have been castigated for their colonial biases in providing aid to Africa. It is well established that donors provide considerably more foreign aid to their former colonies relative to other countries.

Microemulsion‐Based Drilling Fluids Incorporating Seashell Residue Powder: A Sustainable Approach to Fluid Loss Control

open access: yesJournal of Surfactants and Detergents, EarlyView.
Two microemulsion‐based drilling fluids incorporating SSRP were formulated using pine oil, the nonionic surfactant Alkonat L100W, and a glycerol/water solution. The results provide valuable insights into how surfactant‐assisted microemulsion systems can be engineered to enhance the performance and eco‐efficiency of drilling fluids.

Unique Features of Nasal Airway and Airflow Improvement Post‐Dupilumab: A Computational Cohort Study

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The impact of dupilumab on nasal airway patency and airflow is not uniform. It is more pronounced in the middle and superior, but not inferior meatus. These unique regional changes significantly correlate with and potentially drive the improvement in patient symptoms.

Experimental Study on Polymer–Polymer Interfacial Thermal Resistance

open access: yesMacromolecular Theory and Simulations, Volume 34, Issue 2, March 2025.
Interfacial thermal resistance (ITR) in polymer–polymer interfaces is experimentally measured in this paper by the multi‐layered bulk sample approach. Based on numerical simulation and experimental verification, new techniques of layer‐overlapping samples are developed.

Fourier Shell Analysis: k‐Space‐Based Metrics for Assessing Super‐Resolution in 4D Flow MRI

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To support the emerging field of super‐resolution (SR) in 4D flow MRI by proposing Fourier shell analysis to disentangle resolution enhancement from denoising effects during evaluation. Methods A thoracic aortic 4D flow MRI dataset was synthesized with various degrees of stenosis, providing ground truth flow fields generated using ...

An Improved Air Film Model for Studying the Tilt Characteristics of Aerostatic Thrust Bearings

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, an improved mass‐spring model that treats the lubricating air film as distributed springs is proposed to calculate the static and dynamic angular stiffness of aerostatic thrust bearings. The proposed model refines the traditional mass‐spring model by introducing the spatially varying mechanical properties of the air film and the
