Organizational Perspectives on Access to Care Among Persons With End‐Stage Kidney Disease After Enrollment in Medicare Advantage [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective To examine Medicare Advantage (MA) plan, dialysis provider organization, and kidney care management company perspectives on how MA enrollment impacts access to care among persons with end‐stage kidney disease (ESKD). The 21st Century Cures Act enabled persons with ESKD to enroll in MA, resulting in over 70% growth in enrollment among

Data_Sheet_1_Enzymatic Switching Between Archaeal DNA Polymerases Facilitates Abasic Site Bypass.pdf
Abasic sites are among the most abundant DNA lesions encountered by cells. Their replication requires actions of specialized DNA polymerases. Herein, two archaeal specialized DNA polymerases were examined for their capability to perform translesion DNA ...

Modeling the Effect of Hyperoxia on the Spin–Lattice Relaxation Rate R1 of Tissues
Purpose Inducing hyperoxia in tissues is common practice in several areas of research, including oxygen‐enhanced MRI (OE‐MRI), which attempts to use the resulting signal changes to detect regions of tumor hypoxia or pulmonary disease. The linear relationship between PO2 and R1 has been reproduced in phantom solutions and body fluids such as vitreous ...

Background Under normal physiological conditions, the spin–lattice relaxation rate (R1) in blood is influenced by many factors, including hematocrit, field strength, and the paramagnetic effects of deoxyhemoglobin and dissolved oxygen. In addition, techniques such as oxygen‐enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) require high fractions of inspired ...

A new prototype device with small geometric footprint, the µTOM, allows monitoring of the oxygen transfer rate (OTR) in 96 deepwell microtiter plates. The device was used to monitor cultivations of common production organisms used in commercial biotechnology and research, such as Escherichia coli, Hansenula polymorpha (Ogataea angusta), and Ustilago ...

FLASH radiotherapy with carbon ion beams
Abstract FLASH radiotherapy is considered a new potential breakthrough in cancer treatment. Ultra‐high dose rates (>40 Gy/s) have been shown to reduce toxicity in the normal tissue without compromising tumor control, resulting in a widened therapeutic window.

A simplified empirical model to estimate oxygen relaxivity at different magnetic fields
We have compiled 28 reported empirical values of the relaxivity of oxygen and provide an empirical model for estimating the relaxivity of oxygen in water, saline, plasma, and vitreous fluids, accounting for magnetic field strength and temperature. The model agrees well (R2 = 0.93) with the data gathered from literature, ranging from 0.011 to 8.45 T and

Film Effectiveness Downstream the Trenches with Tilted Target Wall
Film cooling is a commonly‐accepted effective way to protect the gas turbine hot sections from the high temperature products of the combustion chamber. Numerous film hole geometries have been the subject of investigation by many researchers over the past three decades with the aim of keeping the target wall under the maximum allowable temperature with ...
