Overall effectiveness factor of an assemblage of catalyst pellets with different sizes or properties
Abstract Catalyst assemblages comprising pellets with distributed sizes or physicochemical properties are ubiquitous in industrial processes; yet accurately predicting their overall effectiveness factors remains a challenge due to complex diffusion–reaction interactions.

We investigated the cytotoxicity and biology of the novel broad-spectrum hydroxamic acid-based histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi), PCI-24781. PCI-24781 was studied alone and combined with bortezomib in Hodgkin lymphoma (L428) and non-Hodgkin's ...

CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 contribute to clopidogrel bioactivation. CYP2C19 no‐function alleles diminish clopidogrel's antiplatelet effects and clinical effectiveness. Coadministration of either a CYP2C19 or a CYP3A4 inhibitor may also reduce clopidogrel's antiplatelet effects and lead to phenoconversion in patients without a CYP2C19 no‐function allele (normal/

The tensile strength of granite, a proposed host for nuclear waste, degrades severely above 400°C. We link this to specific microcracking patterns captured by acoustic emission, establishing a scientific basis for assessing repository safety under thermal load.

Comparative Effectiveness Research, COURAGE, and Technological Abandonment [PDF]
When a major study finds that a widely used medical treatment is no better than a less expensive alternative, do physicians stop using it? Policymakers hope that comparative effectiveness research will identify less expensive substitutes for widely-used ...
