Hepatitis C virus care cascade among people who inject drugs in Puerto Rico: Minimal HCV treatment and substantial barriers to HCV care

Drug and Alcohol Dependence Reports, 2023
Background: People who inject drugs (PWID) in Puerto Rico are disproportionately affected by the hepatitis C virus (HCV) epidemic. However, there is a scarcity of data on the HCV care cascade among PWID in Puerto Rico. This study aims to describe the HCV

Seepage failure prediction of breakwater using an unresolved ISPH-DEM coupling method enriched with Terzaghi’s critical hydraulic gradient

Advanced Modeling and Simulation in Engineering Sciences, 2023
This study develops a new numerical simulation model for rubble mound failure prediction caused by piping destruction under seepage flows. The piping has been pointed out as a significant cause of breakwater failure during tsunamis.

Synthesis and kinetic evaluation of analogs of (E)-4-amino-3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl diphosphate, a potent inhibitor of the IspH metalloenzyme

Comptes Rendus. Chimie, 2023
Our previous research revealed that (E)-4-amino-3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl diphosphate (AMBPP) is one of the best inhibitors of IspH, a [4Fe–4S]-dependent enzyme involved in the methylerythritol phosphate pathway that is a valuable target for the discovery of

Safety, Efficacy, and Ill Intent: Examining COVID-19 Vaccine Perceptions among the New Undervaccinated Moveable Middle in a U.S. Cohort, October 2022

Vaccines, 2023
Individuals who received their primary vaccine series only (with no subsequent booster) may be a new type of “moveable middle” given their receipt of the original COVID-19 vaccination.

Numerical investigation of free surface flood wave and solitary wave using incompressible SPH method [PDF]

Journal of Hydraulic Structures, 2016
Simulation of free surface flow and sudden wave profile are recognized as the most challenging problem in computational hydraulics. Several Eulerian/Lagrangian approaches and models can be implemented for simulating such phenomena in which the smoothed ...
