The effects of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors on the ‘forgotten’ right ventricle
Abstract With the progress in diagnosis, treatment and imaging techniques, there is a growing recognition that impaired right ventricular (RV) function profoundly affects the prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF), irrespective of their left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).

Advanced Functional Materials for Marine Energy Utilization
Marine renewable energy is an important future clean energy supply. We construct and sort out the material system for marine energy capture and conversion, transmission, storage, and utilization for the first time. ABSTRACT Several features of marine energy, including large reserves, sustainable utilization, environmental friendliness, make it a ...

Effectiveness-mass transfer units (ε-MTU) model of a reverse osmosis membrane mass exchanger [PDF]
A strong analogy exists between heat exchangers and osmotic mass exchangers. The effectiveness-number of transfer units (ε-NTU) method is well-known for the sizing and rating of heat exchangers.

Enhanced Performance Dual Stage Pressure Retarded Osmosis
Abstract A dual stage PRO process has been proposed for power generation from a salinity gradient across a semi-permeable membrane. Both closed-loop and open-loop dual stage PRO system were evaluated using 2 M NaCl and Dead Sea as draw solutions, whereas the feed solution was either fresh water or seawater.
