ABSTRACT While cross‐laminated timber (CLT) is increasingly utilized in lateral force‐resisting systems in mass timber construction, research has predominantly focused on platform‐type construction. Balloon‐type CLT shear wall systems offer distinct structural advantages, notably the elimination of cumulative perpendicular‐to‐grain compression and a ...

ABSTRACT Earthquake‐induced damage of structures can trigger cascading hazards, linking structural performance to nonstructural consequences. In current engineering practice, these two aspects are typically addressed separately, limiting the ability to account for such coupled effects in design.

Pancreatic Cancer Disrupts Circadian Patterns of Gene Expression in Cardiorespiratory Muscles
ABSTRACT Background Cancer cachexia, a debilitating syndrome characterized by muscle wasting, significantly impacts survival in gastrointestinal cancers like pancreatic cancer. Emerging evidence suggests a link between cancer cachexia and disrupted circadian rhythms in peripheral tissues, including locomotor muscles. However, circadian dysregulation in

ABSTRACT Thymoma is the most common tumor of the anterior mediastinum. Approximately 20%–30% of patients with a thymoma develop myasthenia gravis (MG), and an additional one third may possess positive acetylcholine receptor (AChR) antibodies without MG.
