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 ...

Production Function Estimation with Unobserved Input Price Dispersion
We propose a method to consistently estimate production functions in the presence of input price dispersion when intermediate input quantities are not observed.

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 ...

An investigation of issues relating to where energy should enter the production function [PDF]
This paper examines the impact of imposing different separability assumptions in the specifications of the standard hierarchical KLEM production function in a computable general equilibrium (CGE) model.

Supply chain modeled as a metabolic pathway
A new model of economic production process is proposed (in the form of a set of ODEs) based on an idea that nonconsumable factors of production facilitate the conversion of inputs to output in much the same catalytic way as do enzymes in living cells ...

A theorem on productive functions [PDF]
PROOF. Myhill has proved that any productive set is productive under a 1-1 total function. A corresponding result is easily established for any contraproductive set having at least one total contraproductive function. Letting h(x, y) be the recursive function of [2, Theorem 2.4, p. 69], consider the sequence so=h(O, 0), si=h(1, so), s2=h(O, si), s3=h(1,

ABSTRACT Introduction This final analysis of a multicenter, prospective postmarketing surveillance study evaluated the safety of daprodustat in patients with chronic kidney disease anemia in routine clinical practice in Japan. Methods Patients who initiated daprodustat between September 2020 and July 2022 were registered.

Impact of Diet-Modulated Butyrate Production on Intestinal Barrier Function and Inflammation
A major challenge in affluent societies is the increase in disorders related to gut and metabolic health. Chronic over nutrition by unhealthy foods high in energy, fat, and sugar, and low in dietary fibre is a key environmental factor responsible for ...

A Model for Predicting Enterprise Behavior in a Non-Stationary Environment [PDF]
The aim of the article is to build a model for predicting behavior of an enterprise under conditions of its interaction with the external environment, involving the formation and support of the optimal trajectory of its behavior. Based on the analysis of

ABSTRACT Background Japan has one of the highest dialysis prevalence rates worldwide and a shrinking, aging population. Whether dialysis burden has entered a sustained post‐peak phase or whether recent declines partly reflect pandemic‐related disruptions remains uncertain.
