Bridge inspection practices using non-destructive testing methods

Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2015
Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) methods have been developed and employed as a means of rapid and effective structural inspection. Despite the various kinds of NDT methods developed for bridge inspection, not much study has been performed on their usage and

Plasma EV Proteomics Identifies ECM Remodeling and Inflammatory Proteins LUM and C7 as Candidate Biomarkers in FSHD

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is one of the most debilitating and common muscular dystrophies. Despite its severity, no approved therapy exists for FSHD patients. However, several therapeutic candidates are currently under development, and some have recently entered clinical trials, marking the need for reliable ...

Stage‐Dependent β‐Synuclein Links MRI and Cognitive Decline in Alzheimer's Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Synaptic degeneration drives cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease (AD), but synaptic biomarkers are scarce. Brain‐enriched β‐synuclein emerged as a synaptic damage marker. We investigated its diagnostic, prognostic, and structural correlates across the AD continuum.

Challenges of Embedding Fiber Bragg Grating Sensors in Castable Material: Influence of Material Shrinkage and Fiber Coatings on Ultrasonic Measurements

Sensors
Fiber optic sensors are increasingly used to measure dynamic strain fields caused by the propagation of mechanical waves. Their low intrusiveness when embedded within a structure makes them suitable for a wide range of applications.

The Comprehensive Live Cell‐Based Cytotoxicity Assay for Monitoring Disease Activity and Guiding Rescue Therapy in Acute Attacks of NMOSD

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a devastating neurological disease that lacks serological biomarkers that can accurately reflect disease activity. We established a live cell‐based assay (LCBA) using serum with endogenous complement to quantify the overall cytotoxicity, offering a novel functional tool for monitoring

microRNA‐7‐5p and α‐Synuclein SAA Predict Parkinson's Disease Phenoconversion

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Corroborate blood neuron‐derived extracellular vesicle (NDEV) alpha‐synuclein (αSyn), the CSF αSyn seed amplification assay (αSyn‐SAA), and blood microRNA‐7‐5p (miR‐7‐5p) as markers for Parkinson's disease (PD) phenoconversion and determine if combining these markers would help select subjects who would be more likely to phenoconvert.

Computed Tomography for Non-destructive Inspection of Hot Structures and TPS Components [PDF]

, 2009
Verifying the quality of a large TPS structure component’s material and therefore providing its flight readiness capability, belongs to one of the most challenging objectives for non-destructive evaluation techniques. Especially when different components

Short‐Term Response to Biologic Therapy in Psoriatic Arthritis Is Not Influenced by Disease Duration at Initiation of Therapy

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We aimed to determine whether the short‐term response to biologics in biologic‐naive psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is better in patients initiating biologic treatment early in the disease course. Methods Patients with PsA who started on biologic therapy from the year 2000 to 2025 were included for analysis.
