Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

Effects of the Fluid Replacement Method During Online Hemodiafiltration on the Solute Removal Performance and Biocompatibility Using the Asymmetric Cellulose Triacetate Membrane

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pre‐dilution online hemodiafiltration (Pre‐HDF) is predominantly used in Japan, whereas post‐dilution online HDF (Post‐HDF) is more common in Europe. An asymmetric cellulose triacetate (ATA) membrane may improve biocompatibility.

Second-order lower radial tangent derivatives and applications to set-valued optimization

Journal of Inequalities and Applications, 2017
We introduce the concepts of second-order radial composed tangent derivative, second-order radial tangent derivative, second-order lower radial composed tangent derivative, and second-order lower radial tangent derivative for set-valued maps by means of ...

Infection Control Practices for Vascular Access Management in Hemodialysis: Results From a Nationwide Survey of Japanese National University Hospitals

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Bloodstream infections due to repeated vascular access (VA) puncture and circuit connections remain major concerns in hemodialysis. Therefore, we examined current practices for glove, disinfectant, and personal protective equipment (PPE) use according to VA type in national university hospitals in Japan.

Harmonically M-convex Set-valued Function

Abstract This research aimed to introduce the concept of harmonically m-convex set-valued functions, which is obtained from the combination of two definitions: harmonically m-convex functions and setvalued functions. In this work some properties and characteristics are developed, as well as a inequality of the Hermite-Hadamard type for such ...

Revealing the structure of land plant photosystem II: the journey from negative‐stain EM to cryo‐EM

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Advances in cryo‐EM have revealed the detailed structure of Photosystem II, a key protein complex driving photosynthesis. This review traces the journey from early low‐resolution images to high‐resolution models, highlighting how these discoveries deepen our understanding of light harvesting and energy conversion in plants.

Homotopy Groups for Cellular Set-Valued Functions [PDF]

Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society, 1968
Introduction. Let X be a compact metric space, and 21 be the collection of all nonempty closed subsets of X. The mth homotopy group Mllm(2x, A) for set-valued functions has been studied in [3]. By applying the results of [1], we will prove that if W(n) is the set of all cellular subsets of Sn and pCSn, then MTIm(W(n), p) is isomorphic to the ordinary ...

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

FEBS 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 ...

Chattering suppression in hybrid non-homogeneous sliding mode differentiator via implicit-Euler discretization

Journal of Applied Science and Engineering
The chattering phenomenon is a problem in sliding mode technique under discrete-time implementation. In this paper, a novel discrete-time algorithm for the hybrid non-homogeneous sliding mode differentiator is presented to prevent chattering in output ...

Joint Spectra and Analytic Set-Valued Functions [PDF]

Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, 1986
We investigate analyticity of joint spectra of A m {A^m} -valued holomorphic mappings, where A A denotes a complex Banach algebra. We show also that if K K is an analytic set-valued function whose values are compact subsets of
