Malignancies and immunoglobulin G4‐related disease
Rheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.Immunoglobulin G4‐related disease (IgG4‐RD) is associated with increased cancer risk. Malignancies affect both IgG4‐RD involved organs, such as the lung, pancreas, bile duct, and prostate, and noninvolved organs, such as the gastrointestinal duct. B‐cell neoplasms constitute a proportion of the malignancies linked to this disease.

Iguratimod alleviated Sjögren's syndrome through regulating macrophage polarization
Rheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.Nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice exhibited characteristic of Sjögren's syndrome (SS), with increased M1 macrophages and deceased M2 macrophages. Iguratimod alleviated SS‐like symptoms and restored balance of macrophage polarization through inhibiting the mitogen‐activated protein kinases pathway in NOD mice.

Explicit approximation of the wavenumber for lined ducts [PDF]
, 2018 For acoustic waves in lined ducts, at given frequencies, the dispersion relation leads to a transcendental equation for the wavenumber that has to be solved by numerical methods. Based on Eckart explicit expression initially derived for water waves, accurate explicit approximations are proposed for the wavenumber of the fundamental mode in lined ducts.

Bifurcations and dynamics in inertial focusing of particles in curved rectangular ducts [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Particles suspended in fluid flow through a curved duct focus to stable equilibrium positions in the duct cross-section due to the balance of two dominant forces: (i) inertial lift force - arising from the inertia of the fluid, and (ii) secondary drag force - resulting from cross-sectional vortices induced by the curvature of the duct.

The Surgical Outcome of Endoscopic Dacryocystorhinostomy According to the Obstruction Levels of Lacrimal Drainage System [PDF]
Clinical and Experimental Otorhinolaryngology, 2009 ObjectivesMany factors influence the outcome of endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR). One of the most important prognostic factors is the level of obstruction in the lacrimal drainage system.

High-Order Large-Eddy Simulations of a Wind Turbine in Ducted and Open-Rotor Configurations [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 High-order large-eddy simulations are performed to study the performance and flow field of a ducted wind turbine operating at different tip speed ratios. To evaluate the effects of the duct, simulations with the same tip speed ratios are also performed on the corresponding open-rotor turbine.

Duct System of the Rabbit Lacrimal Gland: Structural Characteristics and Role in Lacrimal Secretion [PDF]
Investigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2010 To develop a nomenclature for the lacrimal duct system in the rabbit, based on the anatomic and structural characteristics of each duct segment, and to provide RT-PCR and immunofluorescence data to support the notion that the duct system plays important roles in lacrimal function.Paraffin-embedded lacrimal glands (LGs) were stained with hematoxylin and
