Desensitization of a balance with Langmuir binding of weights [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2003
A balance is described with Langmuir binding of weights to each side. This simple physical system, when coupled with a previously derived equation for the equivalent displacement of weight that perturbs the equilibrium of a balance, models two-state, receptor systems in pharmacology for receptor activation.

Slippery Knowledge: Ignorance, Ecologies, and Environment in Endometriosis Framing

open access: yesMedical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite a growing body of literature linking environmental toxins and endometriosis, environmental issues make only occasional appearances in public, patient, and specialist conversations about endometriosis. These conversations may hover at the edges of public discourse, but do not gain traction.

Clinical and Immunological Efficacy of Aspirin Desensitization in Nasal Polyp Patients with Aspirin-Exacerbated Respiratory Disease.

open access: yesIranian journal of pharmaceutical research : IJPR, 2017
This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and the underlining mechanism of aspirin desensitization among patients with Aspirin Exacerbated Respiratory Disease (AERD). Thirty-eight patients, who had undergone an aspirin challenge test and were diagnosed as having AERD, were engaged in a double-blind randomized clinical trial.

Cow’s Milk Desensitization in Anaphylactic Patients: A New Personalized-dose Method

open access: yesIranian Journal of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, 2017
Cow’s milk allergy (CMA) is the most frequent food allergy in children and oral immunotherapy (OIT) is a promising approach for treatment of patients.

A pre-peanut history of food allergy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Since 1990, food allergy has become synonymous with anaphylactic reactions associated with shellfish, milk and, especially, peanut allergy. Rates of food allergy have mushroomed, contributing to changes in how food is produced, marketed and consumed ...

Mechanisms of enteric neuropathy in diverse contexts of gastrointestinal dysfunction

open access: yesNeurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Abstract The enteric nervous system (ENS) commands moment‐to‐moment gut functions through integrative neurocircuitry housed in the gut wall. The functional continuity of ENS networks is disrupted in enteric neuropathies and contributes to major disturbances in normal gut activities including abnormal gut motility, secretions, pain, immune dysregulation,

Reviewing the benefits and clinical outcomes of oral fibroblasts over mesenchymal stem cells for repairing periodontal defects during or after orthodontic tooth movement

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Orthodontic therapy applies forces to teeth, causing an inflammatory reaction in the periodontal ligament. This is repaired by remodeling of the periodontium, allowing tooth displacement. Although orthodontic therapy is mostly initiated during childhood and adolescence, the number of adults seeking this treatment is increasing as our society's

An introduction to the immune network [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 1995
In this paper, after a telegraphic introduction to modern immunology, we present a simple model for the idiotypic network among antibodies and we study its relevance for the maintenance of immunological memory. We also consider the problem of computing the memory capacity of such a model.

The effect of M‐current activation on controller gain and obstructive sleep apnoea severity: a randomised controlled trial using flupirtine

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Investigating the effect of flupirtine, a KCNQ channel opener, on ventilatory control instability (i.e. loop gain) and obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) severity. Left panel: high loop gain has been shown to contribute to airway collapse in patients with OSA.

Time-Triggered Reduced Desensitization Formulation For Solving Optimal Control Problems [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Fuel-optimal trajectories are inherently sensitive to variations in model parameters, such as propulsion system thrust magnitude. This inherent sensitivity can lead to dispersions in cost-functional values, when model parameters have uncertainties.
