Flow-driven collapse of lubricant-infused surfaces [PDF]

J. Fluid Mech. 901 (2020) A34, 2020
Lubricant-infused surfaces in an outer liquid flow generally reduce viscous drag. However, owing to the meniscus deformation, the infused state could collapse. Here we discuss the transition between infused and collapsed states of transverse shallow grooves, considering the capillary number, liquid/lubricant viscosity ratio and aspect ratio of the ...

Subcutaneous Immunoglobulin-G Replacement Therapy with Preparations Currently Available in the United States for Intravenous or Intramuscular Use: Reasons and Regimens

Allergy, Asthma & Clinical Immunology, 2005
For patients who require replacement therapy for primary immunodeficiency, subcutaneous infusions of immunoglobulin G (IgG) may be preferable to intravenous infusions for several reasons.

Estimation of nonlinear differential equation model for glucose-insulin dynamics in type I diabetic patients using generalized smoothing [PDF]

Annals of Applied Statistics 2014, Vol. 8, No. 2, 886-904, 2014
In this work we develop an ordinary differential equations (ODE) model of physiological regulation of glycemia in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) patients in response to meals and intravenous insulin infusion. Unlike for the majority of existing mathematical models of glucose-insulin dynamics, parameters in our model are estimable from a relatively ...

Immediate adverse reactions to intravenous immunoglobulin in primary immune deficiencies: a single center experience

The Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 2020
Background and Objective. Adverse reactions related to intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) infusions vary from 1 to 81%, with an average of 20%. They may be classified as immediate; occurring during the infusion itself or delayed; occurring after ...

Home Subcutaneous Magnesium Infusion in Refractory Hypomagnesemia: A Case Report

Kidney Medicine, 2023
We describe a patient with renal magnesium wasting and prolonged, symptomatic hypomagnesemia that was refractory to oral therapies and intermittent intravenous infusion who achieved near-normal serum magnesium levels with subcutaneous magnesium infusions.

Strategies to mitigate bias from time recording errors in pharmacokinetic studies [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Opportunistic pharmacokinetic (PK) studies have sparse and imbalanced clinical measurement data, and the impact of sample time errors is an important concern when seeking accurate estimates of treatment response. We evaluated an approximate Bayesian model for individualized pharmacokinetics in the presence of time recording errors (TREs), considering ...

Superparamagnetic iron oxide polyacrylic acid coated γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles does not affect kidney function but causes acute effect on the cardiovascular function in healthy mice [PDF]

, 2014
This study describes the distribution of intravenously injected polyacrylic acid (PAA) coated {\gamma}-Fe2O3 NPs (10 mg kg-1) at the organ, cellular and subcellular levels in healthy BALB/cJ mice and in parallel addresses the effects of NP injection on kidney function, blood pressure and vascular contractility.
