PHEx: A Computational Tool for Plate Heat Exchangers Design Problems

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2014
This paper presents a computational tool (PHEx) developed in Excel VBA for solving sizing and rating design problems involving Chevron type plate heat exchangers (PHE) with 1-pass-1-pass configuration. The rating methodology procedure used in the program is outlined, and a case study is presented with the purpose to show how the program can be used to ...

Conservation Status of Two Italian Local Poultry Breeds: Faraona Camosciata and Oca Padovana

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The present study aimed to assess the conservation status and characterize the phenotypic and genomic diversity of two endangered Italian poultry genetic resources to guide their conservation plans. Blood samples and morphometric data were collected on 50 Faraona Camosciata (FAC, Numida meleagris) and 50 Oca Padovana (OPD, Anser anser) adult ...

Microstructural Evidence for Early Childhood Stress in a Community in Transition at Hisban, Jordan

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Identification of stress across infancy and childhood can reflect maternal and environmental influences on early life health. In the 19th century community of Hisban, many infants died before 2 years of age with evidence of metabolic disease, including rickets, that likely ties with maternal health.

ASARM peptides: PHEX-dependent and -independent regulation of serum phosphate

American Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology, 2011
Increased acidic serine aspartate-rich MEPE-associated motif (ASARM) peptides cause mineralization defects in X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets mice (HYP) and “directly” inhibit renal phosphate uptake in vitro. However, ASARM peptides also bind to phosphate-regulating gene with homologies to endopeptidases on the X chromosome (PHEX) and are a ...

Kbus/Idr, a mutant mouse strain with skeletal abnormalities and hypophosphatemia: Identification as an allele of 'Hyp'

Journal of Biomedical Science, 2011
Background The endopeptidase encoded by Phex (phosphate-regulating gene with homologies to endopeptidases linked to the X chromosome) is critical for regulation of bone matrix mineralization and phosphate homeostasis.

X-linked hypophosphatemia due to a de novo novel splice-site variant in a 7-year-old girl with scaphocephaly, Chiari syndrome type I and syringomyelia

Bone Reports
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a rare X-linked dominant inherited disorder caused by loss-of-function variants in the PHEX gene and characterized by renal phosphate wasting, hypophosphatemia, abnormal vitamin D metabolism, growth retardation and ...

Three exonic variants in the PHEX gene cause aberrant splicing in a minigene assay

Frontiers in Genetics
Background: X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH, OMIM 307800) is a rare phosphorus metabolism disorder caused by PHEX gene variants. Many variants simply classified as missense or nonsense variants were only analyzed at the DNA level.

Concordant X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets in monozygotic twins: diagnostic challenges and a novel genetic insight

Endocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism Case Reports
X-linked hypophosphatemic (XLH) is the most common inherited form of rickets, caused by inactivating mutations in the PHEX gene. Resultant overproduction of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) leads to renal phosphate wasting, reduced 1,25 ...
