Bone and mineral disorders in pre-dialysis CKD [PDF]

International Urology and Nephrology, 2008
Disorders in calcium, phosphorus, and parathyroid hormone (PTH) are common in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and may be associated with poor outcomes including a higher rate of CKD progression and increased death risk. Although these abnormalities have been examined extensively in patients with CKD stage 5 who are receiving chronic maintenance dialysis ...

Flexural Behavior of 3D‐Printed Porous Bouligand‐Structured Polymers: Influence of Pitch Angle and Porosity

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study examines how helicoidal architectures with different porosities respond to bending. Adjusting layer angle and spacing in 3D‐printed polymers reveals clear tradeoffs between stiffness, strength, and energy absorption. Experiments and simulations highlight designs that distribute stress effectively, offering pathways for optimizing lightweight
