A Simple, Dynamic Geometric Phantom for MRI and CT Reconstruction Pipelines: Beyond Shepp–Logan

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A customizable, dynamic geometric phantom was developed to bridge the gap between simplistic static phantoms and highly realistic, complex 4D solutions. The phantom enables initial testing, helps detect implementation errors, and supports quantitative evaluation of new dynamic acquisition and reconstruction methods.

Metabolic and volume status evaluation of hemodialysis patients with and without residual renal function in the long interdialytic interval

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Nephrology, 2019
Introduction: It is unclear whether residual renal function (RRF) in dialysis patients can attenuate the metabolic impact of the long 68-hour interdialytic interval, in which water, acid, and electrolyte accumulation occurs. Objective: to evaluate serum

Effects of Rapid Refrigeration and Modified Atmosphere Packaging on Litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) Fruit Quality Traits

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2017
Litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) is a tropical fruit characterized by a rapid pericarp browning and dehydration during postharvest, resulting in an accelerated shelf life and in a loss of consumer appreciation and consequently of its market value. The aim

Prediction of global methane oxidation rates using a random regression forest (RRF) machine-learning method

open access: yes, 2022
Combining our measured methane oxidation rates with previously published data (a total of 427 datapoints) in diffusion-driven coastal waters, we generated predictions of global MOx rates in shallow waters (0-50m) based on published methane, salinity ...

Proteinuria as a Risk Factor for Decline in Residual Renal Function in Non-Diabetic Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

open access: yesKidney & Blood Pressure Research, 2013
Background: Preservation of residual renal function (RRF) is a major issue for patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD). Whether proteinuria is associated with a decline in RRF in patients on PD remains unclear.
