Integrating Pavement Friction and Macrotexture into a Speed-Dependent Pavement Safety Metric for Safety Performance Modeling

open access: yesLubricants
The paper proposes a pavement safety index, the estimated available friction at the expected travel speed, FRS(v), to model the composed effect of low-slip speed friction and macrotexture on roadway crashes.

Preferences of Pediatric Patients and Their Caregivers for Chemotherapy‐Induced Nausea and Vomiting Control Endpoints: A Mixed Methods Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Although not always achieved, complete chemotherapy‐induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) control is the conventional goal of CINV prophylaxis. In this two‐center, mixed‐methods study, we sought to understand the preferences of adolescent patients and family caregivers for CINV control endpoints.

Pediatric Oncology Nursing Competencies in Latin America and the Caribbean: A Scoping Review to Inform Practice, Education, and Research

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Nurses are central to cancer care for children and adolescents, yet no comprehensive synthesis has defined essential core competencies for pediatric oncology nursing (PON) practice internationally, particularly in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC).

A model to predict changes in resilient modulus resulting from wetting and drying

open access: yesInfraestructura Vial, 2016
The resilient modulus of a soil is an important parameter needed for pavement design. However, this parameter experiences post-compaction seasonal changes during the service life of the pavement as a result of wetting or drying of the soil during dry or ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

On Extractors and Exposure-Resilient Functions for Sublogarithmic Entropy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We study deterministic extractors for oblivious bit-fixing sources (a.k.a. resilient functions) and exposure-resilient functions with small min-entropy: of the function's n input bits, k

Nonlinear Vector Resilient Functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
An (n, m, k)-resilient function is a function f : Fn2 → Fm2 such that every possible output m-tuple is equally likely to occur when the values of k arbitrary inputs are fixed by an adversary and the remaining n - k input bits are chosen independently at random.

An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.
