Improvement in Fire Resistance and Smoke Leakage Performance for Existing Polyvinyl Chloride Pipes Passing Through Walls

Fire
Penetration points on walls must include firestop measures to prevent the spread of fire. Countries worldwide have established standardized testing protocols for firestop methods, and firestop products must pass relevant tests before they can be used in ...

An Iterative Technique for the Synthesis of Active Antenna Oscillator Arrays

International Journal of Antennas and Propagation, 2009
A design procedure for the synthesis of a coupled active antenna oscillator array is presented. Such an array is synthesized by deriving two sets of parameters: the radiators' positions and the oscillators' outputs.

Transcripts enriched in codons that trigger P‐site tRNA‐mediated mRNA decay possess stable mRNA

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
PTMD codons were first described by Mendel et al. as mediators of an mRNA decay pathway dependent on the human protein CNOT3, homologous to yeast Not5. Our findings confirm that PTMD codons destabilize transcripts; however, unlike in yeast, the human pathway specifically targets and slightly destabilizes primarily stable mRNAs.

From energy provision to protein synthesis: Tunnelling nanotubes as mediators of intercellular metabolic cooperation in cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

A new flow chip in combination with multiphoton microscopy as a protocol for longitudinal 3D imaging of tissue calcification under shear stress

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Miniaturized flow chip platform enabling continuous perfusion and longitudinal multiphoton 3D imaging of vascular smooth muscle cell constructs under physiological flow. Brightfield imaging guides region selection, while CellTracker Green and mRuby‐labeled fetuin‐A visualize cells and mineral deposition, respectively. Magnesium supplementation markedly

Super‐Refractory Status Epilepticus (SRSE) in a Patient With Compound Heterozygous OPA1 Variants: Case Report and Literature Review

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Super‐Refractory Status Epilepticus (SRSE) is a rare, life‐threatening neurological emergency with unclear etiology in many cases. Mitochondrial dysfunction, often due to disease‐causing genetic variants, is increasingly recognized as a cause, with each gene producing distinct pathophysiological mechanisms.

Triglyceride Levels in the Blood after Anesthesia with Target-Controlled Infusion of Propofol for Brachial Plexus Surgeries in Adults: A Comparison between Conventional Propofol (LCT Propofol) and Newer Formulation of Propofol (MCT-LCT Propofol)

Archives of Anesthesia and Critical Care
Background: This study compares the impact of Medium chain-long chain triglyceride (MCT-LCT) Propofol and Long Chain Triglyceride Propofol on blood triglyceride (TG) levels in patients undergoing brachial plexus repair surgery.

Optimal stopping under model uncertainty in a general setting

Probability, Uncertainty and Quantitative Risk
We consider the optimal stopping time problem under model uncertainty $R(v)= {\text{ess}\sup\limits}_{ \mathbb{P} \in \mathcal{P}} {\text{ess}\sup\limits}_{τ\in \mathcal{S}_v} E^\mathbb{P}[Y(τ) \vert \mathcal{F}_v]$, for every stopping time $v$, set in the framework of families of random variables indexed by stopping times. This setting is more general

Feasibility and Tolerability of Performing Portable MRI for Neurological Disorders in an Outpatient Neurology Clinic: A Prospective Cohort

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Accessing brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can be challenging, especially for underserved patients, which may lead to disparities in neurological diagnosis. Method This mixed‐methods study enrolled adults with one of four neurological disorders: mild cognitive impairment or dementia of the Alzheimer type, multiple sclerosis ...

An Approach to Stopping Problems of a Dynamic Fuzzy System [PDF]

A stopping problem for a dynamic fuzzy system with fuzzy rewards is formulated, which is thought of as a natural fuzzification of non-fuzzy stopping problem for a determistic dynamic system. And, the validity of the approach by ff-cuts of fuzzy sets will
