Diabetes Care, 2002 First fully described in 1983, intensive insulin therapy attempts to match the levels of insulin in the blood with the physiologic needs of the diabetic patient (1). The results of the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial solidified the importance of this approach to the prevention of microvascular complications of diabetes (2).

A New Proposed Return Guide Vane for Compact Multistage Centrifugal Pumps
International Journal of Rotating Machinery, 2013 For widely used multistage centrifugal pumps, their former structures are so bulky that nowadays growing interest has been shifted to the development of more compact structures. Following this trend, a compact pump structure is provided and analysed.

Insights in thixotropic concrete pumping by a Poiseuille flow extension
Applied Rheology, 2020 Thixotropy is a reversible time-dependent phenomenon in fluids, in which an internal structure grows due to flocculation and breaks down under shear action. Numerous fluids are thixotropic, e.g. concretes and cementitious suspensions. Pumping of concrete

Functional dissection of the proton pumping modules of mitochondrial complex I [PDF]
, 2011 Mitochondrial complex I, the largest and most complicated proton pump of the respiratory chain, links the electron transfer from NADH to ubiquinone to the pumping of four protons from the matrix into the intermembrane space. In humans, defects in complex

Displacement Pumping of Liquids Radially Inward on Centrifugal Microfluidic Platforms in Motion
Micromachines, 2011 We describe two novel centrifugal microfluidic platform designs that enable passive pumping of liquids radially inward while the platform is in motion. The first design uses an immiscible liquid to displace an aqueous solution back towards the center of ...
