Placebo Effect Sizes in Clinical Trials of Knee Osteoarthritis Using Intra‐Articular Injections of Biologic Agents

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Patients with knee osteoarthritis rely on symptomatic treatments, in which up to 75% of the pain reduction can be attributed to the placebo effect. This effect may vary based on treatment type (eg, biologics vs nonbiologic injection) and route of administration (eg, intra‐articular vs topical vs oral).

Mechanical Analyses using Discrete Harmonic Expansions of Grain-Based Field Data [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
A methodology for computing expansion basis functions using discrete harmonic modes is presented. The discrete harmonic modes are determined grain-by-grain for virtual polycrystals for which finite element meshes are available. The expansion weights associated with representing field variables over grain domains are determined by exploiting the ...

Different grain-filling rates explain grain-weight differences along the wheat ear

PLOS ONE, 2018
Thousand grain weight is one of the components determining wheat grain yield. It represents the average value of individual grain weights which depends on position within the ear and on positon within the spikelet. Our objective was to quantify the influences of individual floret anthesis date, of carpel weight at anthesis and of rate and duration of ...

Ageism in Rheumatology: the Healthcare Professional's Perspective

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective Ageism (age‐based stereotypes, prejudice, or discrimination) is prevalent and linked to prolonged disability and reduced lifespan in older adults. Little is known about ageism within rheumatology. This study explores the healthcare professional's (HCP) perception of the care of older adults and how ageist attitudes or perspectives may impact ...

OsNLP3 enhances grain weight and reduces grain chalkiness in rice

Plant Communications
Grain weight, a key determinant of yield in rice (Oryza sativa L.), is governed primarily by genetic factors, whereas grain chalkiness, a detriment to grain quality, is intertwined with environmental factors such as mineral nutrients. Nitrogen (N) is recognized for its impact on grain chalkiness, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms remain elusive ...

Grain Weight and Taste Quality in Japonica Rice Are Regulated by Starch Synthesis and Grain Filling Under Nitrogen–Phosphorus Interactions

Plants
To reveal the regulatory effects of nitrogen and phosphorus interactions on grain-filling- and starch-synthesis-related enzymes, and grain weight of superior grains (SGs) and inferior grains (IGs) and taste quality, the japonica rice cultivar Shennong ...

Poaceae Orthologs of Rice OsSGL, DUF1645 Domain-Containing Genes, Positively Regulate Drought Tolerance, Grain Length and Weight in Rice

Rice Science, 2022
Grain yield is a polygenic trait that can be influenced by environmental factors and genetic compositions at all plant growth stages. Currently, the molecular mechanisms behind the coordination of the interaction between grain yield-related traits remain

Development of Ternary Magnesium Alloys for Laser Powder Bed Fusion: Optimizing Oxide Layer Thickness

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing of magnesium alloys by laser is difficult because the melting point of the oxide layer is much higher than the evaporation temperature of the metal underneath. Making the oxide layer thinner can solve this problem. Alloying magnesium with strontium makes the oxide layer thinner, especially at 0.5 wt%.
