Therapeutic Apheresis in Nigeria: A Multi‐Center Summary of Abstracts From the Inaugural Nigerian Society for Apheresis Scientific Meeting

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic apheresis (TA) is an established treatment modality for hematologic, neurologic, and immunologic disorders, yet access remains severely limited in sub‐Saharan Africa. Donor apheresis, including platelet apheresis collection from healthy donors, represents an important complementary modality supporting blood product ...

Mass proportional damping in nonlinear time-history analysis [PDF]

Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Material, Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, 2015
Rayleigh damping is the main form in direct integral method for structural nonlinear dynamic analysis under seismic wave. As stiffness proportional damping usually should be neglected for its significant influence on limit time increment, reasonable mass proportional damping becomes more important in actual engineering.

Prognosis of Long‐Term Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy and the Impact of Combined Continuous Intravenous Sodium Infusion Therapy

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Patients requiring long‐term continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) generally have poor prognoses. This study evaluated whether adding continuous intravenous sodium infusion (cIVNa) is associated with improved hemodynamics and outcomes in patients undergoing long‐term CRRT for ≥ 7 days.

Nonlinear analysis of an RC frame structure considering the effects of embedment on soil–structure interaction

Advances in Civil and Architectural Engineering
The interaction between soil and structure, which merges geotechnical and structural engineering, plays a crucial role in seismic regions. Traditional structural design often assumes that buildings are fixed at their foundations, neglecting the influence

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Seismic Response Mitigation of a Top-Heavy Industrial Tower Using a Pendulum-Tuned Mass Damper: Finite Element Modelling, Time-History Assessment and Parametric Sensitivity

Buildings
Top-heavy industrial towers, which carry large, concentrated masses of equipment at upper levels and feature open lower stories, are vertically irregular by design and tend to amplify seismic displacement and acceleration demands near the tower top ...

Discretization of Dynamic Loading in Time History Analysis

Journal of Mechanics, 2013
ABSTRACTAlthough the numerical properties of a step-by-step integration method can be evaluated based on the currently available techniques, there is still lack of a technique for evaluating its capability to capture dynamic loading. In this work, the amplitude error caused by the step discretization error is identified and the correlation between the ...

An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...
