Critical care use during the course of serious illness. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Despite its expense and importance, it is unknown how common critical care use is. We describe longitudinal patterns of critical care use among a nationally representative cohort of elderly patients monitored from the onset of common serious illnesses. A

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS 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.

Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Properties of Critical Points of the Dinew-Popovici Energy Functional

open access: yesComplex Manifolds, 2022
Recently, Dinew and Popovici introduced and studied an energy functional F acting on the metrics in the Aeppli cohomology class of a Hermitian-symplectic metric and showed that in dimension 3 its critical points (if any) are Kähler.

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Asymptotic properties of critical points for subcritical Trudinger-Moser functional

open access: yesAdvanced Nonlinear Studies, 2023
On a smooth bounded domain we study the Trudinger-Moser functional Eα(u)≔∫Ω(eαu2−1)dx,u∈H1(Ω){E}_{\alpha }\left(u):= \mathop{\int }\limits_{\Omega }({e}^{\alpha {u}^{2}}-1){\rm{d}}x,\hspace{1.0em}u\in {H}^{1}\left(\Omega ) for α∈(0,2π)\alpha \in \left(0 ...

Analytical Investigation of a Beam on Elastic Foundation with Nonsymmetrical Properties

open access: yesEngineering Transactions, 2022
The subject of presented analytical and numerical investigation is the stability of  an axially compressed beam on an elastic foundation. The shape function of the foundation was assumed. The formula was supplemented with the offset parameter.

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the
