PaL Diagrams: A Linear Diagram-Based Visual Language [PDF]

, 2014
Linear diagrams have recently been shown to be more effective than Euler diagrams when used for set-based reasoning. However, unlike the growing corpus of knowledge about formal aspects of Euler and Venn diagrams, there has been no formalisation of ...

Effectiveness of Resistance Intradialytic Exercise Compared to Aerobic Intradialytic Exercise for Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

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.

Drawing Graphs in Euler Diagrams [PDF]

, 2004
We describe a method for drawing graph-enhanced Euler diagrams using a three stage method. The first stage is to lay out the underlying Euler diagram using a multicriteria optimizing system. The second stage is to find suitable locations for nodes in the

Thermodynamics and phase diagram calculation of some sections in the Ag-Bi-Sn system [PDF]

Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2007
The thermodynamic properties and characteristic phase diagrams of some sections in the Ag-Bi-Sn system were calculated. The thermodynamic functions, such as Gibbs excess energy, activity and enthalpy of formation, were calculated using the RKM model and ...

AIPHAD, an active learning web application for visual understanding of phase diagrams

Communications Materials
Phase diagrams provide considerable information that is vital for materials exploration. However, the determination of multidimensional phase diagrams typically requires a significant investment of time, cost, and human resources owing to the necessity ...

Serum Myonectin Levels Are Positively Associated With Physical Function and Lower Frailty‐Related Limitation in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...

Evaluating the Comprehension of Euler Diagrams [PDF]

, 2007
We describe an empirical investigation into layout criteria that can help with the comprehension of Euler diagrams. Euler diagrams are used to represent set inclusion in applications such as teaching set theory, database querying, software engineering ...

Phase stability of Ce, La and U oxides in the presence of hydrogen and water: Thermodynamic modeling and experimental insights

Chemical Thermodynamics and Thermal Analysis
Standard metal-oxygen or metal-hydrogen phase diagrams neglect the presence of water vapor. However, water vapor present in the environment often destabilizes the oxide or hydride phase, leading to the stabilization of hydroxide, oxy-hydroxide or hydrate

Comparative Evaluation of Hemodiafiltration, Hemoperfusion, and Standard Hemodialysis on Efficacy, Inflammatory Control, Dialysis Adequacy, and Safety in End‐Stage Renal Disease: A Prospective Observational Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Generating Euler Diagrams from Existing Layouts [PDF]

, 2008
Euler diagrams have a wide variety of uses, from information visualization to logical reasoning. In all of their application areas, the ability to automatically layout Euler diagrams brings considerable benefits.
