ABSTRACT Background Chronic kidney disease is a growing public health problem worldwide, and the number of patients requiring renal replacement therapy is steadily increasing. Türkiye has experienced a similar rise in both the incidence and prevalence of renal replacement therapy over the past decades; however, national‐level projections of future ...

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes
The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

The Strength Criterion for the Tension Estimation of High-Pressure Apparatus Dies
During the diamond dust synthesis the most stressed parts of a high-pressure apparatus are dies. They are subjects to all-around nonuniform compression. The criterion for strength estimation of such elements is required with the next conditions: the high-

A Simple Three-Dimensional Failure Criterion for Jointed Rock Masses under True Triaxial Compression
The joint configuration and the intermediate principal stress have a significant influence on the strength of rock masses in underground engineering. A simple three-dimensional failure criterion is developed in this study to predict the true triaxial ...

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing
Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

Method of strength analysis for doubly-curved stiffened orthotropic shells by various strength theories [PDF]
The paper proposes a method of strength analysis for materials of thin-walled shell structures reinforced with stiffeners. The shells under consideration were made of orthotropic materials.

Multiple ETS family transcription factors bind mutant p53 via distinct interaction regions
Mutant p53 gain‐of‐function is thought to be mediated by interaction with other transcription factors. We identify multiple ETS transcription factors that can bind mutant p53 and found that this interaction can be promoted by a PXXPP motif. ETS proteins that strongly bound mutant p53 were upregulated in ovarian cancer compared to ETS proteins that ...
