Is resistance training to muscular failure necessary? [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2016
Resistance training (RT) is the main method of exercise for improving strength and skeletal muscle mass (i.e., muscle hypertrophy; ACSM, 2009). In order to promote such adaptations, high-intensity resistance training (HI-RT) with loads above 60% of one repetition maximum (1-RM) are typically recommended (ACSM, 2009).

HIV-1 drug resistance among HIV/HCV co-infected patients with treatment failure in Yunnan, southwestern China: a cross-sectional study [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
BackgroundYunnan Province remains a region with a high prevalence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in China. Due to shared transmission routes, HIV/Hepatitis C virus (HCV) co-infection is common.

Breakdown Characteristics of Schottky Barrier Diodes Used as Bypass Diodes in Photovoltaic Modules under Lightning Surges

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
Damage to photovoltaic power-generation systems by lightning causes the failure of bypass diodes (BPDs) in solar cell modules. Bypass diodes damaged by lightning experience high-resistance open- or short-circuit failures.

Impact of Bypass Diode Fault Resistance Values on Burnout in Bypass Diode Failures in Simulated Photovoltaic Modules with Various Output Parameters

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
The bypass diode (BPD), a protective element in a photovoltaic system (PVS), occasionally fails as a result of lightning damage. In this study, using various resistance values, we investigated the burnout risk of PV modules experiencing BPD failures ...

Analysis of hydrocarbon fire-exposed cold-formed steel columns

open access: yesResults in Engineering, 2023
This study examines the fire behavior of cold-formed steel (i.e., CFS) columns exposed to hydrocarbon fire. Using ABAQUS numerical software, the heat transfer, and structural responses of CFS columns were simulated under hydrocarbon fire and axial ...

Transition in Interfacial Failure Mechanism of Resistance Spot Welds during Tensile–Shear Loading: Role of Fusion Zone Hardness

open access: yesMetals, 2023
The failure of resistance spot welds through the fusion zone along the sheet/sheet interface (i.e., interfacial failure) is critical for automotive crashworthiness.

Diuretic Resistance in Heart Failure [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Heart Failure Reports, 2019
Diuretic resistance (DR) occurs along a spectrum of relative severity and contributes to worsening of acute heart failure (AHF) during an inpatient stay. This review gives an overview of mechanisms of DR with a focus on loop diuretics and summarizes the current literature regarding the prognostic value of diuretic efficiency and predictors of ...

Virologic failure of protease inhibitor-based second-line antiretroviral therapy without resistance in a large HIV treatment program in South Africa. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
We investigated the prevalence of wild-type virus (no major drug resistance) and drug resistance mutations at second-line antiretroviral treatment (ART) failure in a large HIV treatment program in South Africa.HIV-infected patients ≥ 15 years of age who ...
