Collapse potential and ultrasonic pulse velocity of loess soils after treatment with expanded perlite and metakaolin

Acta Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2023
Collapsible soils, including loess, can support heavy loads at their natural humidity but then collapse rapidly and lose a substantial volume when the humidity increases. Soil collapse potential at different immersion stresses was investigated according

The signature of river- and wind-borne materials exported from Patagonia to the southern latitudes: a view from REEs and implications for paleoclimatic interpretations [PDF]

, 2004
Riverine and wind-borne materials transferred from Patagonia to the SW Atlantic exhibit a homogeneous rare earth element (REE) signature. They match well with the REE composition of Recent tephra from the Hudson volcano,and hence this implies a ...

New techniques for old bones: Morphometric and diffeomorphometric analysis of the bony labyrinth of the Reilingen and Ehringsdorf Neandertals

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Neandertals are known to possess very distinctive traits in their bony labyrinth morphology, such as an inferiorly positioned posterior canal and a very low number of turns in the cochlea. Hence, the inner ear has been often used to assess the Neandertal status of fragmentary fossils.

Clay Mineralogy of Red Clay Deposits from the Central Carpathian Basin (Hungary): Implications for Plio/Pleistocene Chemical Weathering and Paleoclimate [PDF]

, 2013
Geochemical and mineralogical studies of palaeosols provide essential information for palaeoclimatic and palaeoenvironmental interpretation of continental deposits and can present a proxy for palaeoclimate.

“Hidden” Landscape of Prehistoric Burial Monuments: The Use of Remote Sensing in the Detection of Neolithic Long Barrows in Bohemia (Czech Republic)

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neolithic long barrows are among the earliest monumental structures in Europe, yet in many parts of Central Europe their surface expression has been largely erased by long‐term agricultural activity. This study evaluates the potential of integrated remote sensing approaches for identifying and contextualizing long barrows and associated ...

Mechanical characteristics of loess under seepage shear

工程科学学报, 2018
In the recent years, an increasing number of loess landslides were triggered due to extreme climate. The initiation of loess landslides was related to water, including surface water and groundwater, landform, geologic structure, and other factors.

The influence of changes in water content on the electrical resistivity of a natural unsaturated loess [PDF]

, 2012
Non-destructive methods of measuring water content in soils have been extensively developed in the last decades, especially in soil science. Among these methods, the measurements based on the electrical resistivity are simple and reliable thanks to the ...

Prediction of Relapse and Glucocorticoid Dependence in Eosinophilic Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis: Findings From a Large European Cohort

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a small vessel vasculitis characterized by eosinophilia, asthma, and ear, nose, and throat (ENT) involvement. Although glucocorticoids (GCs) are effective in controlling symptoms, relapses and GC dependence are common. The aim of this study was to develop predictive models for vasculitis

Pharmacokinetic‐pharmacodynamic modelling of risankizumab using chronic plaque psoriasis real‐world data

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Risankizumab is a high‐cost biologic treatment for chronic plaque psoriasis, an immune‐mediated inflammatory disease presenting with painful red scaly skin lesions. Inter‐individual heterogeneity in treatment response may be better addressed with personalised rather than fixed dosing. We sought to develop a pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (

Population pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic modelling to evaluate favipiravir in combination with lopinavir–ritonavir in patients with COVID‐19

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims The repurposed use of favipiravir in COVID‐19 has been reported to have limited clinical efficacy, yet it has been widely used in some countries. Favipiravir causes mutagenesis in RNA viruses, and it is currently unknown whether it may have a measurable effect on the virus in humans.
