Association Between Individualized Education for Kidney Replacement Therapy Modality Selection and Peritoneal Dialysis Initiation: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an established home‐based kidney replacement therapy (KRT), but its uptake remains low in Japan. We evaluated whether individualized education in a dedicated outpatient clinic was associated with the initiation of PD.

Maximal Graphs and Spacelike Mean Curvature Flows in Semi-Euclidean Spaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Two main results are proved. The first is for the maximal graph system in semi-Euclidean spaces. Existence of smooth solutions to the Dirichlet problem is proved, under certain assumptions on the boundary data.

Mean-Curvature Flow of Voronoi Diagrams

open access: yes, 2015
We study the evolution of grain boundary networks by the mean-curvature flow under the restriction that the networks are Voronoi diagrams for a set of points. For such evolution we prove a rigorous universal upper bound on the coarsening rate.

Characterizations of Unit Darboux Ruled Surface with Quaternions

open access: yesJournal of New Theory, 2023
This paper presents a quaternionic approach to generating and characterizing the ruled surface drawn by the unit Darboux vector. The study derives the Darboux frame of the surface and relates it to the Frenet frame of the base curve. Moreover, it obtains

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

On the evolution by fractional mean curvature

open access: yes, 2019
In this paper we study smooth solutions to a fractional mean curvature flow equation. We establish a comparison principle and consequences such as uniqueness and finite extinction time for compact solutions.

Constant mean curvature surfaces with circular boundary in R³

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2006
In this work we deal with surfaces immersed in R³ with constant mean curvature and circular boundary. We improve some global estimates for area and volume of such immersions obtained by other authors.

The human gut microbiome across the life course

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

Life-Span of Classical Solutions to Hyperbolic Inverse Mean Curvature Flow

open access: yesDiscrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2020
In this paper, we investigate the life-span of classical solutions to hyperbolic inverse mean curvature flow. Under the condition that the curve can be expressed in the form of a graph, we derive a hyperbolic Monge–Ampère equation which can be reduced to
