Shear wall plan layout optimization considering seismic loads

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Seismic force resistant structural design requires experience and time. Shear wall elements are generally used in concrete structures due to their high stiffness against horizontal forces. The aim of this study is to obtain optimum structural wall disposition by using building information modeling (BIM) technologies.

On Pro-$p$ Cappitt Groups with finite exponent

Comptes Rendus. Mathématique
A pro-$p$ Cappitt group is a pro-$p$ group $G$ such that $\tilde{S}(G) = \overline{ \langle L \leqslant _c G \:|\, L \ntriangleleft G \rangle }$ is a proper subgroup (i.e. $\tilde{S}(G) \ne G$).

Normozoospermic men in infertile couples: Potential benefit of early medical diagnostic procedures

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Infertility, defined as the inability to achieve pregnancy despite regular, unprotected sexual intercourse for 1 year, affects approximately 15% of couples. Male factors contribute to 50% of these cases. The necessity of andrological evaluations for male partners of infertile couples with normozoospermia is currently under ...

Muscle strength changes and physical activity during gender‐affirming hormone therapy: A systematic review

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Higher muscle strength is associated with improved overall health and lower mortality. Muscle strength changes during gender‐affirming hormone therapy is possibly linked to gender‐affirming hormone therapy modality, age at initiation, gender‐affirming hormone therapy duration, and physical activity.

Semaglutide and non‐arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy: Review and interpretation of reported association

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract This review covers a seminal study of the relation between exposure to the glucagon‐like peptide 1 (GLP‐1) agonist semaglutide and incident non‐arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy (NAION) in a neuro‐ophthalmology clinic setting, subsequent studies in unselected populations, a meta‐analysis of clinical trials and pathophysiology ...
