Inertial migration in dilute and semi-dilute suspensions of rigid particles in laminar square duct flow [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
We study the inertial migration of finite-size neutrally buoyant spherical particles in dilute and semi-dilute suspensions in laminar square duct flow. We perform several direct numerical simulations using an immersed boundary method to investigate the effects of the bulk Reynolds number $Re_b$, particle Reynolds number $Re_p$ and duct to particle size

Diagnostic Yield of a Novel 11‐Fr Digital Cholangioscope for Indeterminate Biliary Disease Using Macroscopic‐On‐Site Evaluation: Prospective Comparative Study

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1307-1314, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Background and Aim A novel 11‐Fr digital cholangioscope (eyeMAX) has recently become available. However, a prospective comparative study of the diagnostic yield of the eyeMAX and of a conventional cholangioscope (SpyGlass DS II) has not been reported.

Uniqueness of Transonic Shock Solutions in a Duct for Steady Potential Flow [PDF]

arXiv, 2008
We study the uniqueness of solutions with a transonic shock in a duct in a class of transonic shock solutions, which are not necessarily small perturbations of the background solution, for steady potential flow. We prove that, for given uniform supersonic upstream flow in a straight duct, there exists a unique uniform pressure at the exit of the duct ...

Injury to the main bile duct by blunt abdominal trauma

Acta Médica del Centro, 2011
Injuries to the extrahepatic bile ducts are a group of extremely rare conditions due to the anatomic position of these organs. Generally, the diagnosis of traumatic lesions of the gallbladder and bile ducts is difficult to be established before carrying ...

Ursodeoxycholic Acid Alone Is Effective and Safe to Treat Cholestatic Checkpoint Inhibitor‐Induced Liver Injury

Liver International, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Checkpoint Inhibitor‐induced Liver Injury (CHILI) is a frequent complication of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). Corticosteroids are the standard treatment but have many limitations. Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) offers an alternative for managing cholestatic CHILI, but its efficacy remains underexplored.

Specific effects on liver relevant for performing a dietary cumulative risk assessment of pesticide residues

EFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue 5, May 2025.
Abstract According to the ‘EFSA‐SANTE Action Plan on Cumulative Risk Assessment for pesticides residues’, EFSA initiated a retrospective cumulative risk assessment (CRA) of the effects of pesticide residues on the liver. For this CRA, EFSA identified the following liver‐specific effects in accordance with the International Harmonisation of Nomenclature

Differential metabolic and cellular brain regional susceptibility in adult rats with chronic liver disease [PDF]

arXiv
Background & Aims: Patients with type C hepatic encephalopathy (HE) present diverse symptoms indicating that various brain regions are affected. Understanding the distinct metabolic and cellular changes across these regions could help explain the clinical variability of HE.
