Progression of endothelial dysfunction, atherosclerosis, and arterial stiffness in stable kidney transplant patients: a pilot study. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Kidney transplant patients suffer from vascular abnormalities and high cardiovascular event rates, despite initial improvements post-transplantation. The nature of the progression of vascular abnormalities in the longer term is unknown.

Challenges in the Eradication of FMD
The foot-and-mouth disease virus has a wide host range, seven serotypes, and over 100 serosubtypes, a high proportion of genetic variation, and significant antigenic changes. Cross protection is not present in this serotype. Additionally, only a limited level of cross protection between various subtypes within the same serotype is reported.

Arterial endothelial function is known as a factor that correlates with progression of arteriosclerosis. This is measured by flowmediated dilatation (FMD) testing. This test is performed by measuring the brachial artery diameter with an ultrasound system

Parameter values for epidemiological models of foot-and-mouth disease in swine
In the event of a foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) incursion, response strategies are required to control, contain and eradicate the pathogen as efficiently as possible. Infectious disease simulation models are widely used tools that mimic disease dispersion

Self-consistent, time-dependent supernova (SN) simulations in three spatial dimensions (3D) are conducted with the Aenus-Alcar code, comparing, for the first time, calculations with fully multi-dimensional (FMD) neutrino transport and the ray-by-ray-plus

A test on methods for MC estimation based on earthquake catalog
This study tested five methods widely used in estimating the complete magnitudes (MC) of earthquake catalogs. Using catalogs of observed earthquake properties, we test the performance of these five algorithms under several challenging conditions, such as

Sero-prevalence of foot and mouth disease in susceptible wildlife in Israel
Foot and mouth disease (FMD) epidemics recur in Israel almost every year. Wild even-toed ungulates are seldom affected during these epidemics. The sero-prevalence of FMD in wild ungulates during 2000 and 2005-13 was estimated using anti non-structural ...

Relaminarization of pipe flow by means of 3d-printed shaped honeycombs
Based on a novel control scheme, where a steady modification of the streamwise velocity profile leads to complete relaminarization of initially fully turbulent pipe flow, we investigate the applicability and usefulness of custom-shaped honeycombs for ...
