Comparative Evaluation of Hemodiafiltration, Hemoperfusion, and Standard Hemodialysis on Efficacy, Inflammatory Control, Dialysis Adequacy, and Safety in End‐Stage Renal Disease: A Prospective Observational Study

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

A Hierarchical Video Annotation System [PDF]

open access: yes2009 IEEE International Conference on Semantic Computing, 2009
Semantic search service is generally considered to include text search, audio search, and video search. The annotation of a video is crucial to the success of video search and retrieval. With the precise annotation of video files and their semantic reasoning, more accurate search results according to the users’ query intention can be obtained.

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

A Hierarchical Classification of Farm Systems

open access: yesExperimental Agriculture, 1988
SummaryA framework is proposed for the classification of farm systems, which are defined as decisionmaking units comprising farm household, cropping and livestock systems that transform land, capital and labour into products for consumption and sale. Two general principles underlying the classification are outlined.

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Hierarchical control of parallel voltage source inverters in AC microgrids

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2018
Here, a distributed hierarchical control strategy is proposed for the parallel operating of voltage source inverters (VSIs) in AC microgrids (MGs). For the output voltage control of a VSI, conventional double-loop proportional-integral (PI) control ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Chiral gold nanoparticles enantioselectively rescue memory deficits in a mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Nanoparticles are being explored as a potential method to target Aβ aggregation in Alzheimer’s disease. Here, the authors develop gold nanoparticles that were capped with chiral L or D-glutathione which has been shown to improve BBB permeability and ...

Systems of Systems Modeled by a Hierarchical Part-Whole State-Based Formalism [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2013
The paper presents an explicit state-based modeling approach aimed at modeling Systems of Systems behavior. The approach allows to specify and verify incrementally safety and liveness rules without using model checking techniques.
