Risk scores for predicting early antiretroviral therapy mortality in sub-Saharan Africa to inform who needs intensification of care: a derivation and external validation cohort study

BMC Medicine, 2020
Background Clinical scores to determine early (6-month) antiretroviral therapy (ART) mortality risk have not been developed for sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), home to 70% of people living with HIV. In the absence of validated scores, WHO eligibility criteria (

Temperature-sensitive Glycosaminoglycan Biosynthesis in a Chinese Hamster Ovary Cell Mutant Containing a Point Mutation in Glucuronyltransferase I [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2004
In previous studies, we reported the isolation and characterization of a Chinese hamster ovary cell mutant (pgsG) defective in glucuronyltransferase I (GlcATI). This enzyme adds the terminal GlcA residue in the core protein-linkage tetrasaccharide (GlcAbeta1,3Galbeta1,3Galbeta1, 4Xylbeta-O-) on which glycosaminoglycan assembly occurs (Bai, X.

Novel experimental design for high pressure - high temperature electrical resistance measurements in a 'Paris-Edinburgh' large volume press

, 2015
We present a novel experimental design for high sensitivity measurements of the electrical resistance of samples at high pressures (0-6GPa) and high temperatures (300-1000K) in a 'Paris-Edinburgh' type large volume press.

Extreme sensitivity and climate tipping points [PDF]

, 2019
A climate state close to a tipping point will have a degenerate linear response to perturbations, which can be associated with extreme values of the equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS).

Influence of fly ash on the volumetric and physical properties of Stone Matrix Asphalt Concrete

Journal of Engineering, 2020
Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA) is a gap-graded asphalt concrete hot blend combining high-quality coarse aggregate with a rich asphalt cement content. This blend generates a stable paving combination with a powerful stone-on-stone skeleton that offers ...

In vivo temperature-sensitive drug release system trigged by cooling using low-melting-point microcrystalline wax

Journal of Controlled Release, 2019
Temperature-sensitive formulations are attractive controlled-release formulations, which release an incorporated drug by changes in body temperature induced by external temperature stimulation. Recently, it has been reported that wax matrix (WM) particles composed of a low-melting-point microcrystalline wax (MCW) released only a small amount of the ...

Zero-Group-Velocity acoustic waveguides for high-frequency resonators

, 2017
The propagation of the Lamb-like modes along a silicon-on-insulator (SOI)/AlN thin supported structure was theoretically studied in order to exploit the intrinsic zero group velocity (ZGV) features to design electroacoustic resonators that do not require

High probability of triggering climate tipping points under current policies modestly amplified by Amazon dieback and permafrost thaw [PDF]

Earth System Dynamics
We investigate the probabilities of triggering climate tipping points under five Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) and how they are altered by including the additional carbon emissions that could arise from tipping points within the Earth's carbon ...
