Anorectal Dysfunction in Systemic Sclerosis: Clinical Phenotypes and Functional Patterns

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The aim of this study was to characterize specific physiologic defects in anorectal dysfunction in systemic sclerosis (SSc) using anorectal manometry (ARM), evaluate associations with gastrointestinal (GI) and extraintestinal clinical phenotypes, and explore potential serologic markers for risk stratification.

Valorization of Invasive Tree Species (Black Locust, Tree-of-Heaven) Bark in Commercial Lime Mortars: Effects on Composites’ Physical, Hygroscopic and Mechanical Performance

Applied Sciences
Fast-growing invasive tree species management produces a significant amount of low-density and low-value biomass, which offers a chance for waste valorization in the environmentally friendly construction sector.

Association of Elevated Platelets and C‐Reactive Protein With Severe Disease and Poor Survival in Systemic Sclerosis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Elevated C‐reactive protein (CRP) levels in systemic sclerosis (SSc) have been linked with severe disease and worse survival, but the role of platelet levels remains unclear. This study examined whether elevated platelet levels, CRP levels, or both are associated with disease severity, progression, and survival in SSc.

Clinical Validation of Artificial Intelligence (AI)‐based Cartilage Segmentation Predicting Knee Replacement

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective For cartilage morphology to serve as a scalable endpoint in clinical trials, analyses should be performed automatically without human interaction. To clinically validate artificial intelligence (AI)‐based analysis, we studied cartilage loss from MRI prior to knee replacement.

Automated Hand Flexor Tendon–Thickness Measurement in Systemic Sclerosis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) can affect flexor tendons, contributing to hand function problems and reduced quality of life. Tendon changes are currently assessed with ultrasonography and measured manually, a time‐consuming process prone to interobserver variability.

dynoGP: Deep Gaussian Processes for Dynamic System Identification

International Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, EarlyView.
This work introduces a novel class of deep models for system identification, dynamical deep Gaussian processes, which combine the strengths of data‐driven methods, such as those based on neural network architectures, with the ability to output a probability distribution for uncertainty representation.

Compressive Strength of a Carbon Fiber in Matrix

Journal of the Japan Society for Composite Materials, 2011
Micro-buckling characteristic of a carbon mono-fiber in matrix was studied. A fiber was modeled in matrix as a column on elastic foundation. Buckling stress of the fiber was calculated incorporating the initial fiber misalignment and non-linearity of the matrix.

Effect of cattle manure ash’s particle size on compression strength of concrete

Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2019
Cattle manure ash (CMA) is an industrial waste generated by biomass power plants. The objection of this study is to confirm how the particle size of cattle manure ash influence the compression strength of concrete.
