Frequency, Burden and Pathogens of Acute Respiratory Illness in Very Preterm Infants During Infancy

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To describe the frequency, burden, and pathogen profile of acute respiratory illnesses (ARIs) in very preterm infants during the first year after neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) discharge. Methods Very preterm infants were followed prospectively (August 2015–January 2017) with monthly assessments of symptoms, medication use, and ...

Derivation of Predicted Pressure Drop Equation on Granular Particle Plug Transportation in Horizontal Pipe

Journal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2008
In a plug transportation that is one of gas-solid two-phase flows, the prediction equations on particle velocity within a plug and pressure drop in a horizontal pipe have been formulated.

PIV in Practice

, 2011
Experimental fluid mechanics has for a long time been used to visualize flow phenomenonqualitatively. Traditionally, visualization has been done with dye or tracer particle dueto their ability to follow the flow pattern well. One of the early pioneers in experimentalfluid mechanics was Ludwig Prandtl who used mica particles in water flumes to ...

Performance analysis of an undershot cross-flow water turbine based on the flow near the runner

Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2016
Since the great east Japan earthquake in 2011, renewable energy is turned into importance. Hydro power is one of most important energies because it is not affected by weather condition and possible to generate steady quantity electric power, so it could ...

Mechanical stiffness orchestrates distinct regulation of MRTFs and YAP/TAZ transcriptional cofactors in hepatocytes

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
MRTFs and YAP/TAZ proteins, or mechanosensitive transcriptional cofactors (MRTcoF), regulate common genes associated with cellular contractility and immune cell infiltration. Their differential regulation in response to stiffness is linked to changes in hepatocyte's aspect ratio. MRTFB does not undergo nuclear translocation under these conditions. This

An analysis of the logistics performance index of EU countries with an integrated MCDM model

Economics and Business Review, 2019
Countries can check the performance of their logistics’ activities to determine their competitiveness in trade logistics. One way to check these performances is to analyze the country’s LPI value in detail which is released by the WB every two years ...

Assessing the reproducibility of a bioimage analysis workflow characterising tissue flow in Drosophila

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Reproducibility challenges in bioimage analysis are common. The proliferation of tools and workflows creates a complex ecosystem that is difficult to reproduce without deliberate, explicit reporting and support. We assess the reproducibility of Gehrels et al.(2023) as a representative bioimage analysis workflow.
