A transient inflammatory response contributes to oxaliplatin neurotoxicity in mice
Abstract Objectives Peripheral neuropathy is a relevant dose‐limiting adverse event that can affect up to 90% of oncologic patients with colorectal cancer receiving oxaliplatin treatment. The severity of neurotoxicity often leads to dose reduction or even premature cessation of chemotherapy.

Plastic debris in the open ocean [PDF]
Significance High concentrations of floating plastic debris have been reported in remote areas of the ocean, increasing concern about the accumulation of plastic litter on the ocean surface. Since the introduction of plastic materials in the 1950s, the global production of plastic has increased rapidly and will continue in the coming decades.

An Experimental Study on the Effects of Debris Accumulation at the Culvert Inlet on Downstream Scour [PDF]
The major damage of hydraulic structures at river crossing occurs during floods and culverts is the structure which use as a part of drainage system in ephemeral streams.

Astrophysical explosions revisited: collisionless coupling of debris to magnetized plasma [PDF]
The coupling between a rapidly expanding cloud of ionized debris and an ambient magnetized plasma is revisited with a hybrid (kinetic ion/fluid electron) simulation code that allows a study over a wide range of plasma parameters. Over a specified range of hypothetical conditions, simple scaling laws in terms of the total debris mass and explosion speed

Interpreting the socio-technical interactions within a wind damage–artificial neural network model for community resilience [PDF]
The use of machine learning has grown in popularity in various disciplines. Despite the popularity, the apparent ‘black box’ nature of such tools continues to be an area of concern.

Development of a Debris Index [PDF]
Environmental indices for space objects have been proposed to identify good candidates for active debris removal missions and to deal with the licensing process of space objects before their launch. A way to rank the environmental impact of spacecraft may be based on the assessment of how their fragmentations would affect operational satellites.

HazardNet: Road Debris Detection by Augmentation of Synthetic Models [PDF]
We present an algorithm to detect unseen road debris using a small set of synthetic models. Early detection of road debris is critical for safe autonomous or assisted driving, yet the development of a robust road debris detection model has not been widely discussed.

Study of structural evaluation method for outdoor tanks damage caused by tsunami debris impact force
In the Great East Japan Earthquake that occurred in March 2011, it was reported that mechanical structures were damaged due to tsunami wave pressure on the structures, and impact of debris that flowed along with the tsunami on the structures.If an ...
