Rock mechanical properties under reconstructed deep in situ thermo–hydro–mechanical conditions: Implications for CO₂‐related injection scenarios

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract illustrates a reconstructed in situ thermo‐hydro‐mechanical (THM) framework in which porosity serves as the central variable linking stress, pore pressure, and temperature to evolving mechanical properties of rocks. Under burial conditions, in situ stress, pore pressure, and temperature jointly govern volumetric strain and ...

Trying to estimate a monetary value for qualy [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper we study the feasibility of estimating a monetary value for a QALY (MVQ). Using two different surveys of the Spanish population (total n=892), we consider whether willingness to pay (WTP) is (approximately) proportional to the health gains ...

Butterfly abundances but not patch occupancy buffered by vegetation heterogeneity during climatic extremes

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
As extreme climatic events are becoming more frequent, we need to understand what mechanisms could buffer populations to ensure their persistence. Fragmented populations may be especially vulnerable, as exemplified by species with metapopulation dynamics whose persistence is determined by a precarious balance between frequent local extinctions and ...

Numerical Analysis and Optimization of a Continuous‐Flow pH‐TRC for Steady‐State Low‐Grade Waste Heat Recovery

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A steady‐state numerical model is established for a continuous‐flow pH‐TRC for low‐grade waste heat recovery. Based on carbonate and bicarbonate electrolytes, the influences of operating conditions and electrode structure on pH‐driven power generation are clarified.

Meta‐analysis of sotagliflozin, a dual sodium‐glucose‐cotransporter 1/2 inhibitor, for heart failure in type 2 diabetes

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 968-979, April 2025.
Abstract Sodium‐glucose co‐transporters (SGLTs) mediate sodium and glucose transport across cell membranes. SGLT2 inhibitors have a recognized place within heart failure (HF) guidelines. We evaluated the effect of sotagliflozin on HF and cardiovascular outcomes in participants with type 2 diabetes. Scopus, Medline, Embase and Central were searched from

Metabolic abnormalities and reprogramming in cats with naturally occurring hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1256-1270, April 2025.
Abstract Background and aims The heart is a metabolic organ rich in mitochondria. The failing heart reprograms to utilize different energy substrates, which increase its oxygen consumption. These adaptive changes contribute to increased oxidative stress.

Measuring health‑ and oral health-related quality of life in secondary school pupils: a head‑to‑head psychometric comparison of CHU9D and CARIES-QC-U

open access: yesBMC Oral Health
Objectives Dental caries impacts children’s health- and oral health-related quality of life. Preference-based measures (PBM) can quantify these impacts as utilities, facilitating economic evaluation of interventions.

QALYs and Policy Evaluation: A New Perspective [PDF]

open access: yes
This Article presents a new, welfarist defense of the use of QALYs (quality adjusted life years) in policy evaluation. It challenges both the conventional wisdom among health economists that QALY-based analysis is dominated by traditional cost-benefit ...

Enhancing Lentiviral Purification: Combining CIM QA Monolithic Columns With Design of Experiments Approach

open access: yesELECTROPHORESIS, EarlyView.
Lentiviral vector purification using QA CIM monolith anion‐exchange chromatography was optimized via 96‐well and DOE, increasing recovery from 20% to 90%. The process achieved 3.3‐log host cell protein reduction, decreased particle impurities, and showed high binding capacity, supporting large‐scale manufacturing.

On the Welfare Economic Foundations of Health Status Measures [PDF]

open access: yes
Measures of health status, such as e.g. the QALY (Quality Adjusted Life Years) measure, have been proposed as a tool in the economic assessment of new medical technologies, and its possible foundations in individual utility theory have been discussed in ...
