A Low Cost Oscillating Membrane for Underwater Applications at Low Reynolds Numbers

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Active surface morphing is a nonintrusive flow control technique that can delay separation in laminar and turbulent boundary layers. Most of the experimental studies of such control strategy have been carried out in wind tunnels at low Reynolds numbers ...

Abatacept for Prophylaxis of Acute and Chronic Graft‐Versus‐Host‐Disease in Children Undergoing Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation—A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Cohort Studies

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Graft‐versus‐host disease (GvHD) remains one of the most significant complications of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Abatacept, a selective T‐cell costimulation modulator, is a relatively novel prophylactic agent, though pediatric data remain limited.

Fluid dynamic effects of small projections based on dorsal ridge tubercles of the finless porpoise

Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2017
The finless porpoise has characteristic tubercles on its dorsal ridge. These tubercles are supposed to have biological and mechanical functions. In the former, specific nerve endings and fibers exist in the tubercles indicating its function as a sensory ...

Impact of Initial Treatment Setting on Survival in Relapsed Pediatric and AYA Bone Sarcomas: A Secondary Analysis of a Prospective Clinical Trial

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Outcomes in relapsed or refractory pediatric and AYA bone sarcomas remain poor, and the impact of early referral to specialized sarcoma centers on survival is unclear. Early centralization of care may improve local and systemic treatment quality, but evidence in this population is limited.

Effect of Constriction Oscillation on Flow for Potential Application to Vocal Fold Mechanics: Numerical Analysis and Experiment

Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2006
Oscillation of the vocal folds makes a sound source of the human voiced sound. Understanding of the oscillation mechanism, which is a complex flow-structure interaction problem in the airway, is crucial for considering clinical diagnosis of voice ...

Hydrostructural Phenomena in a Wastewater Screening Channel with an Ascendable Sub-Screen Using the Arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian Approach

Applied Sciences, 2023
Wastewater invariably accumulates soluble and insoluble waste and requires treatment at a wastewater treatment plant (WTP) to become reusable. The preliminary screening of insoluble waste occurs through a wastewater screening mechanism (WSM) before ...

Establishing an Apheresis Medicine Program in a Resource‐Constrained Setting: A 5‐Year Experience From Lagos, Nigeria

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Establishing a comprehensive apheresis medicine program in a resource‐constrained setting presents significant structural, financial, and logistical challenges. Despite the growing clinical importance of apheresis services globally, published experience from sub‐Saharan Africa remains sparse.

Effect of DFPP on Ferroptosis in Peripheral Blood CD14+ Monocytes of Hyperlipidemic Patients Involving the ACSL4/LPCAT3/ALOX5 Pathway

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Hyperlipidemia is a major risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Although statins are the cornerstone of lipid‐lowering therapy, their use may be limited in some patients by adverse effects. This study evaluated the possible impact of non‐drug treatment using double‐filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP) on CD14+

Adaptive Separation Control System Using Vortex Generator Jets for Time-Varying Flow

Journal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2008
Flow separation is mostly an undesirable phenomenon and boundary layer control is an important technique for flow separation problems on airfoils and in diffusers.

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...
