A MODIFIED COLLAPSE TEST FOR GYPSEOUS SOILS
Gypseous soil is one of soils which presents a risk for engineering structures, specially with high contamination of gypsum, because of the problem of collapse of soil under the footings, during soaking of these soils with water from any source.

Fitting models for soil-water characteristic curve of total and matrix suctions of Yili loess
The Yili loess of Xinjiang is characterized by strong collapsibility and high soluble salt content. For describing the suction parameters in the stress state of the unsaturated soils, both the total and matrix suctions should be taken into account ...

AbstractIndicative and subjunctive conditionals are in non-complimentary distribution: there are conversational contexts at which both are licensed (Stalnaker 1975; Karttunen and Peters 1979; von Fintel 1998). This means we can ask an important, but under-explored, question: in contexts which license both, what relations hold between the two?

Cluster analysis of polysomnographic data identified five distinct OSA phenotypes. The Severe Desaturation and REM‐Predominant types were independently associated with type 2 diabetes (adjusted OR 5.00 and 3.12, respectively). CT90, an index of nocturnal hypoxic burden, was a stronger independent predictor of diabetes than conventional AHI.

Characterisation of sleep apneas and respiratory circuitry in mice lacking CDKL5
Summary CDKL5 deficiency disorder is a rare genetic disease caused by mutations in the CDKL5 gene. Central apneas during wakefulness have been reported in patients with CDKL5 deficiency disorder. Studies on CDKL5‐knockout mice, a CDKL5 deficiency disorder model, reported sleep apneas, but it is still unclear whether these events are central (central ...

Introduction: The aim of this study was to determine the correlation between inferior vena cava (IVC) diameter, vena cava inferior collapsibility (cIVC) and vena cava inferior distensibility (dIVC) with other hemodynamic parameters to determine the fluid

New experimental method for loess collapsibility using centrifugal model tests
The methods for loess collapsibility mainly include field immersion testing method and laboratory testing method. A majority of the results of laboratory testing method differ greatly from the engineering practice.

The Role of the Hyoid Bone in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Severity: A Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has numerous complications that negatively impact patients' quality of life. Early diagnosis can significantly reduce these complications. The aim of the study was to evaluate the relationship between the hyoid bone position and the severity of apnea, and to determine if hyoid‐related cephalometric variables can ...

The Pharyngeal Resistance Index—A Promising Diagnostic Tool in OSA
ABSTRACT This study investigates the newly developed pharyngeal resistance index derived from computational fluid dynamics analysis of the upper airway in patients with obstructive sleep apnea. The aim was to evaluate this index as a diagnostic and severity assessment tool by comparing it with the apnea‐hypopnea index before and after maxillomandibular
