Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...

Mathematical Modeling to Estimate Photosynthesis: A State of the Art
Applied Sciences, 2022 Photosynthesis is a process that indicates the productivity of crops. The estimation of this variable can be achieved through methods based on mathematical models. Mathematical models are usually classified as empirical, mechanistic, and hybrid.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

On the mechanistic understanding of predator feeding behavior using the functional response concept
Ecosphere, 2020 Functional response models describe the relationship between prey density and per capita prey consumption rate by a predator. Type II functional responses, in which density‐dependent predation occurs via a decelerating feeding rate, seem to prevail in ...

Mechanistic Modeling of Architectural Vulnerability Factor [PDF]
ACM Transactions on Computer Systems, 2015 Reliability to soft errors is a significant design challenge in modern microprocessors owing to an exponential increase in the number of transistors on chip and the reduction in operating voltages with each process generation. Architectural Vulnerability Factor (AVF) modeling using microarchitectural simulators enables architects to make informed ...

Nonlocal Mechanistic Models in Ecology: Numerical Methods and Parameter Inferences
Applied Sciences, 2023 Animals utilize their surroundings to make decisions on how to navigate and establish their territories. Some species gather information about competing groups by observing them from a distance, detecting scent markings, or relying on memories of ...

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Japan has one of the highest dialysis prevalence rates worldwide and a shrinking, aging population. Whether dialysis burden has entered a sustained post‐peak phase or whether recent declines partly reflect pandemic‐related disruptions remains uncertain.
