The Gut–Heart Axis in Systemic Sclerosis: Evidence From a Large Prospective Early Disease Cohort

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Cardiac involvement significantly impacts prognosis in systemic sclerosis (SSc), highlighting the need for early risk stratification. Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms are common and often manifest early. Emerging data suggest a link between GI and cardiac manifestations, possibly through shared mechanisms like dysautonomia.

The Lupus Damage Index Revision Program: Results From the Item Generation and Reduction Phases

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective A data‐driven and expert/patient consensus‐based project to develop a revised Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics (SLICC)/American College of Rheumatology (ACR) Damage Index (SDI) is under way supported by SLICC, ACR, and the Lupus Foundation of America. Our objective is to report the item generation and reduction phase results

Study on Composition Design and Performance Characteristics of Warm-Mixed Rubber–Asphalt Mixture for Cold-Region Stress Absorption Layers

Buildings
Reflection cracks significantly compromise the service life of half-rigid asphalt pavements in cold regions. This study introduces SAKIII warm-mixed rubber–asphalt mixture (SAKIII WMRA Mix) as a stress absorption layer to address this issue.

Performance of Asphalt Rubber Mixture Overlays to Mitigate Reflective Cracking

Materials, 2022
Adequately predicting overlay behaviour is essential for flexible pavement rehabilitation to reach the predicted lifespan. Reflective cracking is one of the main failure mechanisms affecting overlay performance. This failure may occur due to cracks in the lower layers that propagate to the overlay due to traffic loads, temperature variations, shrinkage

From Adult to Adolescent: Alignment in Clinical Trials and Outcomes in Axial Spondyloarthritis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is a group of chronic inflammatory diseases encompassing axial and peripheral forms, with up to 20% of patients developing symptoms before age 16. Despite this substantial pediatric burden, treatment options for juvenile‐onset SpA (JSpA), particularly those with axial disease (axJSpA), remain limited.

THE EFFECT OF RECLAIM TIRE RUBBER AS ADDITIVE IN MINIMIZING REFLECTIVE CRACKING

Diyala Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2010
The rehabilitation of cracked pavement by overlaying, without any improvement, is rarely a durable solution, as the cracks rapidly propagate through the new asphalt layer.

The Classification and Mechanism of Microcrack Homogenization Research in Cement Concrete Based on X-ray CT

Buildings, 2022
Old cement pavement directly overlaid with an asphalt layer produces many reflection cracks. Using microcrack homogenization technology to treat old cement pavement can effectively reduce the occurrence of reflection cracks. Micro-crack homogenization is

Creating Ti–Fe α/β Alloys by Diffusion‐Driven Solid‐State Processing

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study proposes making alloys containing fast diffusing elements that are difficult to produce by ingot metallurgy, by diffusion‐driven solid‐state HIP processing of elemental powders and low‐temperature homogenisation. Here, novel Fe‐Ti α–β alloys are formed having fine α–β lamellae, a small β prior grain size without significant intermetallics ...
