Graft Copolymers of Maleic Anhydride and Its Isostructural Analogues: High Performance Engineering Materials [PDF]
This review summarizes the main advances published over the last 15 years outlining the different methods of grafting, including reactive extruder systems, surface modification, grafting and graft copolymerization of synthetic and natural polymers with maleic anhydride and its isostructural analogues such as maleimides and maleates, and anhydrides ...

Risk factors for Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) in kidney transplantation recipients
Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) is a potentially life-threatening infection that occurs in immunocompromised patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate risk factors for PJP in kidney transplantation recipients.

Biomarkers for corneal graft rejection? [PDF]
Despite the many developments in immunosuppressive therapy, corneal graft rejection still is the leading cause for graft failure.1 This clinical scenario is a constant headache for ophthalmologists that regularly perform corneal transplants. Often long-term systemic immunosuppression is required with the undesirable consequences from systemic steroids ...

Compatibility studies of loquat scions with loquat and quince rootstocks [PDF]
Experiment 1. Rooting of quince hardwood cuttings: Rooting success was influenced by both the concentrations of IBA and the selection of rooting media. However, the control group (without IBA) notably enhanced rooting when compared to the various IBA concentrations.

One-dimensional Arterial Network Model for Bypass Grafts Assessment [PDF]
We propose an arterial network model based on 1D blood hemodynamic equations to study the behavior of different vascular surgical bypass grafts in case of an arterial occlusive pathology: an obliteration or stenosis of the iliac artery. We investigate the performances of three different bypass grafts (Aorto-Femoral, Axillo-Femoral and cross-over ...

Anti-pig Antibodies in Swine Veterinarian Serum: Implications for Clinical Xenotransplantation [PDF]
Recent clinical xenotransplantation and human decedent studies demonstrate that clinical hyperacute rejection of genetically engineered porcine organs can be reliably avoided but that antibody mediated rejection continues to limit graft survival.
