Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Hyperlipidemia is a major risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Although statins are the cornerstone of lipid‐lowering therapy, their use may be limited in some patients by adverse effects. This study evaluated the possible impact of non‐drug treatment using double‐filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP) on CD14+

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.

A criterion for the non-existence of invariant circles [PDF]
Publications Mathématiques de l'IHÉS, 1986 The purpose of this paper is to give a criterion for the existence of invariant circles for a certain class of area-preserving and monotone twist diffeomorphisms of the annulus. The author provides a numerical invariant, for each irrational number \(\omega\), which is always nonnegative, and which vanishes if and only if there is an invariant circle of

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Study on Characteristic Strength and Constitutive Model of Red Sandstone under Hydraulic Coupling
Applied Sciences, 2022 The newly built shaft in the western region needs to pass through the deep Cretaceous stratum, where the pores and fissures are developed, the cementation ability is poor, and the surrounding rock is rich in water. Under the coupling effect of the stress

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Discreet motor skill acquisition: effect of number of visual demonstrations
Revista da Educação Física, 2018 This experiment investigated the effect of number of visual demonstrations on the acquisition of discreet motor skill. Seventy-four college students of both sex participated in this study. The participants observed a visual model twice or ten times.

Complexity, 2021 In this paper, the inherent stability problem for multibody systems with variable-stiffness springs (VSSs) is studied. Since multibody systems with VSSs may consume energy during the variation of stiffness, the inherent stability is not always ensured ...
