Kidney tubule iron loading in experimental focal segmental glomerulosclerosis

Scientific Reports, 2022
Kidney iron deposition may play a role in the progression of tubulointerstitial injury during chronic kidney disease. Here, we studied the molecular mechanisms of kidney iron loading in experimental focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and ...

Cost Efficiency of Banks in Croatia

Croatian Review of Economic, Business and Social Statistics, 2015
Foreign and larger banks in Croatia are generally considered to be more cost efficient compared with domestic and smaller banks. However, those views are often based on data from financial statements that can be misleading due to simultaneous ...

Interface Engineering in Piezoelectric‐on‐Insulator Platforms: Coupling of Electrons, Photons, and Phonons for Multifunctional Integration

Electron, EarlyView.
The underlying interface physics and engineering strategies across key POI material systems, including LiNbO3/Si, LiNbO3/SiC, LiNbO3/diamond, and AlN/diamond, were reviewed. The key engineering strategies such as atomic‐scale bonding optimization, nanostructuring, ultrathin phonon‐bridge interlayers, and ferroelectric domain wall engineering for ...

Cross‐protective effect of a multicomponent fusion protein vaccine during a natural episode of Streptococcus zooepidemicus respiratory disease in ponies

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Streptococcus equi subspecies zooepidemicus is a highly diverse opportunistic pathogen of horses, associated with respiratory disease and endometritis. Objectives To characterise S. zooepidemicus isolates recovered from young ponies during a natural episode of respiratory disease, and to determine if vaccination with Strangvac®, a ...

Evolution of free amino acids and volatile compounds in dry‐cured fermented 'salchichón' sausages superficially inoculated with different molds

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Surface molds contribute to flavor development in dry‐cured fermented sausages through their effects on proteolysis, amino acid catabolism, and volatile compound formation. This study evaluated the influence of Aspergillus oryzae, Penicillium camemberti, Penicillium roqueforti and Penicillium nalgiovense on the evolution of free ...

Solving the Capacitated Arc Routing Problem Using Logic‐Based Benders Decomposition

Networks, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we present a new exact algorithm for solving the capacitated arc routing problem using logic‐based benders decomposition. The master problem is formulated based on variables that measure the number of deadheadings of each edge. These variables have been converted into binary form, which enables the use of both new and stronger ...

The role of identification in data‐driven policy iteration: A system theoretic study

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
Abstract The goal of this article is to study fundamental mechanisms behind so‐called indirect and direct data‐driven control for unknown systems. Specifically, we consider policy iteration applied to the linear quadratic regulator problem. Two iterative procedures, where data collected from the system are repeatedly used to compute new estimates of ...

Bond behavior of corroded reinforcement: Experimental investigation and finite element analysis

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the bond behavior of corroded reinforcing bars in reinforced concrete members using beam tests that reproduce stress conditions representative of structural members, complemented by nonlinear finite element (FE) analysis.
