A low preoperative platelet-to-white blood cell ratio is associated with acute kidney injury following cerebral aneurysm treatment in South Korea [PDF]
Acute and Critical CareBackground Inflammation is involved in the pathophysiology of postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI). We investigated whether preoperative platelet-to-white blood cell ratio (PWR), a novel serum biomarker of systemic inflammation, was associated with ...

Transmutation properties of coated axially non-uniform MA/6LiD transmutation rods in PWR
He jishu, 2023 BackgroundThe nuclear transmutation is the only way to reduce the radioactive hazard of the high level long-lived radioactive minor actinides (MA). The majority of commercial reactors in operation in the world are pressurized water reactor (PWRs), hence

Impacts of Change‐Type and State‐Type System Qualities on Complex System Architectures
Systems Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT System qualities, such as scalability, expandability, and reconfigurability, are key requirements of complex systems. Requirements associated with system qualities are important factors in design trade space analyses, but systems engineering design methodologies make only limited use of these qualities, hindering a holistic understanding of ...

Avoiding pitfalls when modelling ligands in macromolecular crystallography
Acta Crystallographica Section D, EarlyView.Flawed protein–ligand X‐ray structures can misdirect drug discovery based on PDB‐deposited models. This review uses publicly available PDB examples to highlight potential pitfalls, from absent ligands to incorrect chemistry, and presents a practical validation approach to improve model reliability.The determination of protein–ligand complex structures ...

Reframing the Treasury Debate: Industrial Strategy and State Capacity in the UK
The Political Quarterly, EarlyView.Abstract The Treasury has long been seen as a root cause of Britain's economic malaise, blocking much‐needed industrial intervention and embedding short‐termism. This article examines the politics of Concorde and civil nuclear power in postwar Britain to show that the Treasury was not the problem in these cases.

Impact of nickel and iron on PWR zirconium alloy surface CRUD formation and boron precipitation
He jishu, 2022 BackgroundCorrosion products will deposit on the surfaces of PWR (pressurized water reactor) zirconium alloy to form CRUD (chalk rivers unidentified deposit), the precipitated boron will cause axial power distribution anomaly and affect the core safety ...

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Site‐level differences in population growth (λ) and phenotype frequencies. Mountain silhouettes represent the three study sites. Morph relative abundances are shown in the colored vertical bar. Point estimates and confidence intervals of λ for each site are displayed below, with the dashed line marking the threshold for demographic stability (λ = 1 ...

Effect of Zinc injection on the surface CRUD of PWR zirconium alloy
He jishu, 2022 BackgroundThe corrosion products deposited on the surface of pressurized water reactor (PWR) zirconium alloy will form chalk rivers unidentified deposit (CRUD), which will reduce the heat transfer capacity of fuel cladding and affect the primary ...
