Journal of Advanced Computational Intelligence and Intelligent Informatics, 2007 Approximate models using fuzzy rule bases can be made more precise by suitably increasing the size of the rule base and decreasing uncertainty in the rules. A large rule base, however, requires more time for its evaluation and hence the problem arises of determining the size that is good enough for the task at hand, but allows as fast as possible ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The medical burdens of sickle cell disease (SCD) and transfusion‐dependent β‐thalassemia (TDT) are chronic and cumulative, even in children. Yet the effects expand beyond medications and healthcare visits due to their impacts on school attendance, academic performance, and peer engagement.

Reflections on the Optimal Size of Government [PDF]
, 2000 “It is not always easy to see a common thread in Tullock’s work: he is almost too fertile and throws off so many ideas in all directions that the connecting links between them threaten to disappear from view. Any simple summary of his’ system,’ therefore, must wait on some future effort of his own.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.

Preparation and Surface Sizing Application of Sizing Agent Based on Collagen from Leather Waste
BioResources, 2015 Collagen extracted from leather waste was modified with maleic anhydride. Then, using ammonium persulfate as an initiator, by pre-modifying collagen reacted with styrene and ethyl acrylate monomers, a vinyl-grafted collagen sizing agent (VGCSA) for paper

Therapeutic 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.

Influence of the Expected Wind Speed Fluctuation on the Number of Batteries of the Balancing System
Power Electronics and Drives, 2022 The article discusses a method of assessing the of dependence of the number of batteries that would be needed to achieve energy balance in distributed generation systems with wind turbines on ambient temperature and on the error involved in predicting ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Optimal Energy Storage Sizing for Networked Microgrids Considering Reliability and Resilience
IEEE Access, 2019 In this paper, an optimal energy storage sizing method is proposed for networked microgrids (NMGs) considering reliability and resilience enhancement. A bi-level optimization model for energy storage sizing is developed.

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.
