Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

Comparison of Numerical Simulations of Propeller Open-Water Performance with Cavitation for High-Speed Planing Hulls

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Numerical simulations of an open-water propeller are performed using CFDShip-Iowa. The propeller, originally designed by Mercury Marine for a 21 feet high-speed planing hull, is scaled to match a 42 feet hull configuration. Three advance ratios (J = 0.8,

Sensing Mercury for Biomedical and Environmental Monitoring

Sensors, 2009
Mercury is a very toxic element that is widely spread in the atmosphere, lithosphere, and surface water. Concentrated mercury poses serious problems to human health, as bioaccumulation of mercury within the brain and kidneys ultimately leads to ...

Linking neurogenesis, oligodendrogenesis, and myelination defects to neurodevelopmental disruption in primary mitochondrial disorders

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mitochondrial remodeling shapes neural and glial lineage progression by matching metabolic supply with demand. Elevated OXPHOS supports differentiation and myelin formation, while myelin compaction lowers mitochondrial dependence, revealing mitochondria as key drivers of developmental energy adaptation.

A novel direct activator of AMPK inhibits prostate cancer growth by blocking lipogenesis

EMBO Molecular Medicine, 2014
5′AMP‐activated kinase (AMPK) constitutes a hub for cellular metabolic and growth control, thus representing an ideal therapeutic target for prostate cancers (PCas) characterized by increased lipogenesis and activation of mTORC1 pathway. However, whether

Occurrence characteristics of mercury in high-mercury coal and distribution rule of mercury in products of an air dense medium fluidized bed

International Journal of Mining Science and Technology, 2018
Mercury emitted from direct combustion of high-mercury coal does great harm to the environment. To make good use of high-mercury coal, it is necessary to study the occurrence characteristics of mercury in coal and high-efficient methods of mercury ...

Plecstatin inhibits hepatocellular carcinoma tumorigenesis and invasion through cytolinker plectin

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The ruthenium‐based metallodrug plecstatin exerts its anticancer effect in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) primarily through selective targeting of plectin. By disrupting plectin‐mediated cytoskeletal organization, plecstatin inhibits anchorage‐dependent growth, cell polarization, and tumor cell dissemination.

When Less Is More $\ldots$ Few Bit ADCs in RF Systems

IEEE Access, 2019
Digitizing RF signals using few bit ADCs can provide system advantages in terms of reduced power dissipation, wider sampling bandwidth, and decreased demand for digital throughput. The diversity of established applications based on few bit ADCs, together
