The Achilles tendon total rupture score : a study of responsiveness, internal consistency and convergent validity on patients with acute Achilles tendon ruptures [PDF]

, 2012
Background The Achilles tendon Total Rupture Score was developed by a research group in 2007 in response to the need for a patient reported outcome measure for this patient population.

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Seismic hazards analysis for the Qiongdongnan segment of the Continental Slope Fault Zone in northern South China Sea from dynamic rupture models: Implications for earthquake-induced landslides and tsunamisKey points

Earthquake Science
Marine earthquakes are extremely dangerous. The Qiongdongnan (QDN) segment of the Continental Slope Fault Zone (CSFZ) in the northern South China Sea poses seismic risks that may trigger submarine landslides and tsunamis.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Review of Creep Cavitation and Rupture of Low Cr Alloy and its Weldment [PDF]

, 2013
This paper presents a review of creep cavitation and rupture of low Cr alloy and its weldment, particular in the heat-affected zone (HAZ). Creep damage is one of the serious problems for the high temperature industry.

Discerning protein pools by selective staining with self‐labeling tags

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cell surface proteins have an intra‐ and extracellular pool. Combining genetic fusion to self‐labeling tags that can be addressed with small molecule fluorophores allows separating these pools. We highlight recent developments and techniques for state‐of‐the‐art interrogation of cell surface proteins in the complex tissue setting.

How the Transition Region Along the Cascadia Megathrust Influences Coseismic Behavior: Insights From 2‐D Dynamic Rupture Simulations

Geophysical Research Letters, 2019
There is a strong need to model potential rupture behaviors for the next Cascadia megathrust earthquake. However, there exists significant uncertainty regarding the extent of downdip rupture and rupture speed.

Synergistic perspectives—How single‐molecule biophysics complement biochemical understanding

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss how ensemble biochemistry and single‐molecule approaches are complementary, outline commonly used single‐molecule techniques, and illustrate their relevance through two representative case studies: chromatin organization by SMC complexes and pathway choice during DNA double‐strand break repair.

2022年青海门源MW6.6地震震源动力学破裂过程

Dizhen xuebao
2022年1月8日青海门源MW6.6地震在地表产生了较强的破坏，为研究门源地震产生强地表破裂及阻碍托莱山东段应力释放的构造背景，本文采用谱元法模拟了门源地震曲面分支断层在实际地形下的动力学破裂过程。结果显示，破裂自初始破裂点沿断层上倾方向同时发生双侧破裂；受震源区上方高速P波异常体的影响，断层产生非连续破裂。在破裂传播到托莱山东段时，断层的滑动速度和滑动量发生明显的阶跃式下降；此外，近地表处滑动速率约3.6 m/s的区域可能为强地面运动生成区 ...

Role of fault branches in earthquake rupture dynamics [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2007
We analyze earthquake ruptures propagating along a straight “main” fault and encountering a finite‐length branch fault. Such intersections are often observed in natural fault systems. The predicted effects of the interaction with the branch that we report can be remarkable; they can strongly perturb the propagation velocity on the main fault and, in ...
